Noam Saadon-Grosman
ngrosman@fas.harvard.edu
Noam completed her undergraduate studies in physics and graduated (MSc and PhD) in neuroscience from the Hebrew University. She served as a postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University and is currently a postdoctoral fellow at ELSC. Noam is particularly interested in understanding how the human body is represented in the brain, exploring the processing of somatosensory signals and motor functions. Recently, she has been investigating body representation in the human cerebellum and exploring the higher-order processing that occurs in between.
