Haran uses Deep Neural Networks to better understand how defensive behaviours are generated in the midbrain. He completed his PhD in the computational neuroscience programme at ELSC, at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
Haran is a multidisciplinary researcher, studying mostly topics from the worlds of neuroscience and human behavior. He has a background of a musician, which later studied psychology and then moved to computational neuroscience. He is interested in human emotions, behaviour and thoughts and the way they are being generated by the brain.
