Efrat Monsonego-Ornan : PhD, PI

efrat.mo@mail.huji.ac.il

In 2006, I joined the Institute of Biochemistry and Nutrition. This was a significant step for me, allowing me to fulfill my goal of conducting a research on the interrelation of genetic and environmental factors (such as nutrition) in bone development. I have always felt that the fast-developing and emerging field of nutrition is a fascinating discipline in terms of both research and public health. Furthermore, in joining the School of Nutrition I have in essence come full circle, since my first degree and in fact, first interest was nutrition. I therefore consider my current appointment both a mission and a privilege: I am able to study nutrition at the highest scientific level, in my research. And in teaching future nutritionists, I have the opportunity to highlight and enhance the scientific side of this crucial occupation.

Since I was in high school I was very interested in food and nutrition. My curiosity brought me to our laboratory and at the moment I am researching the effects of early nutrition on skeletal development. My curiosity is not even close to being satisfied and I truly hope it never will!
