Biotechnology and Food Engineering

Main
PhD: Department of Physics, Weizmann Institute of Science, 2004
MSc: Department of Physics, Weizmann Institute of Science, 1998
BSc: School of Applied and Engineering Physics, Cornell University, 1994
 
Nano Main Field:
My interest in nanotechnology stems from my work in synthetic biology and single molecule biophysics.
Both fields require a quantitative understanding of the behavior of small (nano-sized) biological molecules in order to generate systems
