What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation in healthcare, emphasizing collaboration and impactful patient care.

I am a dedicated geneticist and genetic counselor with over five years of experience in genetic research and counseling. My journey began with a B.Sc. in Pharmaceutical Engineering, followed by an M.Sc. in Human Molecular Genetics and Biochemistry, where I focused on the intricate role of blood vessels in pancreatic transdifferentiation. My academic pursuits have been complemented by practical experience, including a significant internship at the Institute of Human Genetics, where I contributed to research that led to the publication of two articles.

In my most recent role as Head of Genetics at Futura Genetics, I successfully created a genetic test and developed a comprehensive platform for genetic counseling sessions. My leadership skills were further honed as I managed a team and conducted pilot sessions for investors. Currently, as the COO and co-founder of Nascom, I am committed to connecting professionals within the Arab community in Israel, overseeing operations, and driving user engagement initiatives.
