In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Ahmad Abu Akel, a distinguished member of Beit of Hope’s Advisory Board. Dr. Abu Akel is a cognitive and social neuroscientist, as well as a professor of psychopathology at the University of Haifa's School of Psychological Sciences. His expertise, particularly in the neurobiological foundations of empathy, offers profound insights into its potential role in conflict resolution—an area of great interest to us.
