Research profile

Ety studies how GLP-2 signaling in hepatic stellate cells relates to steatosis and fibrosis in MASLD. Her research uses liver spheroids and experimental models to examine endocrine signaling within the liver.

Ety is a PhD candidate at Tel Aviv University and serves as lab manager, supporting the laboratory’s experimental research and methods development. Her manuscript on establishing a 3D HepG2/LX-2 heterospheroid model of MASLD is in submission.

In submission
