PhD Candidate
Department of Occupational Therapy, New York University
Tenafly, NJ, United States
I am a PhD candidate at the Department of Occupational Therapy (OT) at New York University (NYU). Prior to my doctoral studies, I earned both my bachelor’s and master’s (thesis track) degrees from Tel Aviv University and worked as an occupational therapist with diverse populations across the lifespan in both Israel and Massachusetts. My research interests focus on cognitive rehabilitation and the prevention of cognitive decline among people with chronic conditions, particularly type 2 diabetes (T2D). My doctoral dissertation focuses on developing an OT intervention to prevent cognitive decline among adults living with T2D using the Multiphase Optimization Strategy (MOST) framework, an innovative approach for intervention development that balances effectiveness with implementation constraints.
