Dr Yeshurun received her Ph.D. in Neurobiology from Weizmann Institute of Science in 2011. Her dissertation, under the guidance of Prof. Noam Sobel and Prof. Yadin Dudai, focus on the unique aspects of olfactory memory. She then completed her postdoctoral training with Prof. Uri Hasson in Princeton University, focusing on the neural correlates of interpretation of naturalistic stimuli. Yeshurun joined the school of Psychological Sciences as a faculty member in 2018.

Natural dyadic interactions change our lives, and of course mine. I want to understand how, and this is what my Ph.D., which is co-supervised by Prof. Noam Sobel from the Weizmann Institute of Science, is about. I focus on dyadic synchronization with an emphasis on the influence of breathing and smell. I also study how emotions and the autonomic system shape our synchronization with others as manifested behaviorally, physiologically and in the brain level.

Graduated BIU’s gifted youth program, with a BSc in Mathematics, with honors.
served in Israel’s national encryption and cyber-security unit, and after that worked for 5 years as an Android and iOS cloud researcher at Cellebrite. During that time finished my Masters in Neuroscience at BIU under the supervision of Prof. Michal Lavidor, using TDCS.

Passionate about Neurotech and relationships between people!

After graduating my BA in psychology here in Tel Aviv University, I found the field of social interaction most appealing. I believe that those interactions shape our lives in the most significant way of all, and I plan to investigate how they reflect in brain activity.

Received a BA in the double major program of Psychology and Biology with an emphasis on Neuroscience at Sagol school in Tel Aviv University. Fascinated by the neural mechanisms that associate with social interactions, which are commonplace yet convoluted..

B.A in Cognitive Sciences & Psychology, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. I’m fascinated by how people interpret different aspects of other people’s mental states as well as their own, and how these can change over time. I plan to conduct an fMRI study, which along with behavioural tools could illuminate whether initial mental filters have privileged brain representation.

I did my BA in psychology at IDC Herzlyia, where I also worked as a project manager at the CNS lab, probing the effects of EEG-neurofeedback on memory consolidation enhancement. I also studied Neuroscience for 1 year at the Weizmann Institute.

We humans are part of a highly social species. We are extremely sensitive to the signals our conspecifics emit. These signals can be processed without awareness and influence physiology, perception and behavior. I am doing my thesis under the co-supervision of Yaara Yeshurun and Nira Liberman, where I intend to look at how behavioral interpersonal synchronization within a group setting influences subsequent individual perceptions.

I graduated BA with honor in Psychology and Political Science from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
I find great interest in combining those two doctrines to test how political partisanship shape one’s interpretation of political stimuli and study the underlying brain mechanisms. In my research, I use both fmri and behavioral tools.

I received my BSc in Psychology and Biology from the Sagol School of Neuroscience at Tel-Aviv University, and currently an MSc student in the cognitive program at Sagol school. 

In my research, I hope to implement novel ways of exploring the gap between complex social dynamics and the neural mechanism underlying them.

After graduating my BA in psychology and biology with an emphasis on neuroscience I joined the lab for my MA in order to further my understanding on the neural and behavioral construct of social interaction as to me this is the centerpiece of society today

Student at The Adi Lautman Interdisciplinary Program for Outstanding Students – a unique four-year program that allows an interdisciplinary curriculum from the first year of study, leading directly to a M.Sc. degree.

As an interdisciplinary student, my M.Sc. combines Social Psychology and Social Work: with the help of Prop. Katz’s lab from the Bob Shapell School of Social Work, I plan to examine how  synchronization between children and interviewers in forensic interviews influence the child’s testimony. In other words, I will use the amazing research that has been done in this lab and apply it in the real world.

I am a Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellow and a PhD candidate at the institute of Neuroscience and Psychology of the University of Glasgow. I am an ESR member of ENTWINE, THE European Training Network on Informal Care, a Marie Curie Innovation Training Network (ITN) funded by the European Union. My research examines how people disclose their emotions and needs to social robots, and how these, in turn, can reduce stress and burden. My project is aimed at developing personalized solutions, interventions, and recommendations to support and promote care recipients’ and caregivers’ well-being using social robots.

Currently pursuing BSc in Bio-Medical Engineering, as well as BSc in Biology, focusing on neuroscience. Working in the field of social interaction allows me to learn of conducting and planning experiments and analyzing data in a practical manner, as well as expands my knowledge in different aspects of neuroscience.
