About
Elee is a postdoctoral associate at the Department of Chemistry and CSAIL at MIT, working on developing complex cell models for drug discovery. Elee has been studying gastrointestinal diseases for the past 10 years, and is interested in stromal and especially extracellular matrix biology. Elee believes that in order to treat human disease, we must look to the microenvironment for therapeutic targets. Elee is also passionate about science communication and views it as an inseparable part of a scientist's role in society. Currently, she serves as the Scientific Director, and regularly writes for, the non-profit organization "Little, Big Science", which is one of Israel's most popular science communication platforms. Previously, Elee was a postdoc at the Wyss Institute at Harvard University, working on organs-on-chips models for Inflammation and Cancer. Elee received her PhD and my MSc from the Weizmann Institute of Science, where she studies the role of the extracellular matrix in inflammatory bowel disease. Prior to that, Elee received my BSc in Biology and Psychology from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
