Yevgeni Berzak

I am a faculty member and the head of the Cognitive Science Track in the Data Science and Engineering degree at Technion. I did a PhD in Computer Science at MIT CSAIL, and a postdoc at the Computational Psycholinguistics lab at MIT BCS. My research is on language processing and acquisition in humans and machines (see more on our Research page).

Omer Shubi

I am a PhD candidate in Data Science at the Technion. My research aims to decode our cognitive state in language processing, with a focus on utilizing eye movements in reading and neural activity while listening.

Keren Gruteke

I'm a PhD student in Data Science at the Technion, passionate about language, data science, and cognition. I'm eager to explore the intersection of these fields and discover new insights.

Ella Lion

I am a PhD student in Data and Decision Sciences at the Technion. My research integrates psycholinguistics, neuroimaging, and computational modeling to investigate the neural basis of internal language representations, focusing on how language is represented and processed during silent reading and thinking.

Shachar Frenkel

I’m an MSc student in Data Science at the Technion. I am interested in exploring the intersection of cognitive sciences and machine learning. I am passionate about deepening our understanding of how these fields can influence one another to advance both human behavior research and language processing technologies.

Amit Heshes

I’m an MSc student in Data Science at the Technion. I am interested in the linguistic knowledge embedded in human-language interactions. I aim to deepen our understanding of this connection and improve our ability to decode and encode this knowledge.

Ido Falah

I am an MSc student in Data Science at the Technion. I am interested in exploring the predictive power of language and the knowledge it holds over human behavior. I strive to contribute to the understanding of how language comprehension is applied and leveraged to model and anticipate human behavior.

Diana Morgan

I’m a Masters student in Data Science at the Technion. I am interested in human language acquisition and processing, as well as by the similarities and differences between human cognition and machine learning, and how exploring these connections can enhance our understanding of both natural and artificial systems.

Maya Harram Grossman

I'm an MSc student in Data Science at the Technion, passionate about language, data science, and cognition. I am driven by curiosity about how language reflects human cognitive mechanisms, my goal is to explore its predictive power to model and better understand human behavior.
