ABOUT ME
I've recently completed my Ph.D. with Prof. Avishai Dekel at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and am applying for Post-Doc positions. I am currently working on a research project on the thermodynamic evolution of the gas in the filaments of the cosmic web with Dr. Yuval Birnboim.
When not staring into a computer screen I enjoy climbing, capoeira and cooking with my wife and 2 children (and those are only my hobbies starting with 'c').
