Hamutal Slovin (Hebrew: חמוטל סלובין; born 1967) is an Israeli neuroscientist and neurophysiologist who studies the visual system using optical imaging techniques. Slovin, is a professor at Bar-Ilan University, at the Gonda Multidisciplinary Brain Research Center.[1] Her research focuses on deciphering the cortical mechanisms underlying visual and perceptual processing and their relation to eye movements, as well as reconstruction of visual stimuli from brain activity and artificial vision.[2][3]

Academic career
editIn 2004, she was appointed a lecturer at the Gonda Brain Multidisciplinary Center for Brain Research at Bar-Ilan University. In 2010, she was appointed a senior lecturer and in 2013, she was appointed an associate professor. Between 2014 and 2017, she served as the Head of the Neuroscience Program at Bar-Ilan University.[4]
Research
editSlovin's study focuses on the study of neural mechanisms in the visual cortex, which underlie the processing of visual information, visual perception and artificial vision.[5] Slovin is investigating different types of eye movements and their effects on the processing of visual information in the brain.[6][7][8]
In 2017, Slovin was placed 21th on Globes woman 50 influencers.[9]
Private life
editSlovin is married and lives in Israel.[citation needed]
