Nir is a Technion (IIT) graduate with a bachelor’s degree in biomedical engineering (B.Sc). During his undergraduate project, he collaborated with Prof. Ronen Talmon, member of the faculty for electrical engineering at the Technion, to produce a stamp for EEG signals. He is currently interested in collecting and cross-referencing behavioral data and fMRI data, including application of engineering methods, in order to characterize the neurobiological basis for synchronizing the brain activity of parents and their children.
