Anat Bohme-Cagan finished her Ph.D. in neuroscience at Tel Aviv University. Yet, even though she is very passionate about science, she realized an academic path is not for her. An ad on the radio, yes, radio, brought her to a new path towards the Israeli ministry of health. She is now a multidisciplinary policymaker in the field of medical technologies and regulation at the Israeli ministry of health and an avid advocate for collaborative multifaceted work. Do Ph.D.s have what it takes to make it in policy? You bet ya!
