As a clinical neuropsychologist and researcher in this field, my research interests focus on the neuropsychological effects of Acquired Brain Injury at large and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) in particular. My main interests are in:
1. Assessment and epidemiology of the long-term neuropsychological and functional deficiencies caused by TBI.
2. Efficacy of specialized neuropsychological rehabilitation programs, including newly developed cognitive, functional and psychological treatments
3. Unawareness of deficits and depression among patients with TBI.
4. Development of neuropsychological tests and questionnaires, adapted to the Israeli culture and languages.
