My teaching and research activities focus on the psycho-social aspects of human eating behaviors.

It deals with the contribution of the Social and Behavioral Sciences to the acquisition and maintenance of proper eating habits - among individuals, families, small and large groups sharing common characteristics, such as:
Gender, ethnic origin, age group, developmentally delay.

An additional field of teaching & research is lifelong learning - in Israel and internationally

The third field of teaching is Teacher Education.

A maze-like pattern develops in an ice-water mixture that soaks up near-infrared light for 60 minutes. Credit: S. G. Preis et al./Sci. Adv.
