Mrs. Nir Dotan has over two decades of experience in human resources and organizational management.
“As the company continues to evolve, we believe investing in our Human Resources function commensurate with an investment in human capital so Mrs. Nir Dotan’s appointment is key,” stated Eyal Shamir, Chief Executive Officer of IceCure. “This is especially true as we expand the availability of ProSense globally. Additionally, we are building out our Research & Development and Clinical divisions as we create the next-generation cryoablation systems with single-probe and multi-probe systems. We look forward to growing our talent base in these areas to help meet our development goals.”
Mrs. Nir Dotan was previously Vice President of Human Resources at Hanita Lenses, a medical device manufacturer and provider of intraocular lens solutions for cataract surgery, and previously served in roles handling recruitment and marketing.

Mrs. Nir Dotan commented “I am very enthusiastic to be able to join IceCure at a time when we’ve seen expansion of our cryoablation therapy system globally. This is an important inflection point for the company as we work towards establishing a regulatory path to make the ProSense System available in other major markets, such as the United States, China, and Japan as a minimally invasive treatment to early-stage breast cancer patients. I look forward to supporting existing and new employees so that we may meet the significant market demand that we’ve seen for a minimally-invasive, safe and effective alternative to surgical tumor removal.”
