  Prof. Moskowitz is currently Research Professor and Emeritus Professor of Applied Mathematics at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Jerusalem, Israel. His professional interest is Mathematical Modeling in Healthcare. Recent publications include: Recent Advances in Optical Coherence Tomography (South Korea), Wireless Route Planner for a Programmable Wheelchair, Retinal Curvature in Age-Related Macular Degeneration, Controlled Inquiry Rates of Clinical Interviews in Telehomecare (South Korea), and Guidelines of Telehomecare for the Underserved, and The Hausdorff Measure of Progress Made by the Homeless and Mentally Ill. Prof. Moskowitz was Head of the Israeli delegation to ISO/TC 215, which prepares standards in Health Informatics, and contributed to Working Group Standards Association 1073, in the field of Medical Devices. He collaborated with Hadassah Medical School healthcare providers. Joint collaboration with cardiologists, ophthalmologists, and cardio-thoracic surgeons led to several technological developments. These included an air-cushioned eye bandage (patent 3952735), a look-up table of refractive errors used in ophthalmic surgery, measures of astigmatism in an improved keratometer, a rule-of-thumb for matching arterial grafts, dimensional criteria for shunt implantation in the treatment of hydrocephalus, finite element software for the simulation of heart performance in artery stenosis, and requirements for central heart valve prosthesis.
