Dr. Hadas Marciano
Research work

In recent years, Dr. Marciano has pursued two parallel, yet connected, lines of research: driver behavior research at the Institute of Information Processing and Decision Making (IIPDM), University of Haifa and research on resilience, wellbeing, and stress at the Stress and Resilience Research Center, Tel-Hai College. Two of her current research projects combine the two lines of research described above.
