Event
Noam Shoval spent about three weeks during September 2024 with Sara Dolnicar and Bob McKercher at the University of Queensland, Australia.
Award
Noam Shoval received a 5-year grant from the Israeli Science Foundation ($270,000): "Measuring the Tourist Experience in Time and Space Using GPS, Mobile Eye-Tracking and Physiological Sensors" in the beginning of August.
