Yuval Amit
M.Sc. student
-
B.Sc., Computer Science
Yuval is interested in how heterogeneous local non-linear dynamic events integrate in time and space to drive global emergent properties in a simple model of contractile gels.
Amos Zamir
M.Sc. student
-
B.Sc., Computer Science, BGU
Amos is investigating intercellular information transfer during collective calcium signaling. He is using time-series analysis and machine learning to infer the different roles that single cells take in cell-cell communication.
Assaf Nahum
M.Sc. student
-
B.Sc., Software and Information Systems Engineering, BGU (direct M.Sc. track)
Assaf is studying the interaction of cells with their microenvironment. He is developing new image analysis algorithms to quantify the spatiotemporal cell-ECM interactions and cell-ECM-cell interactions.
Katya Smoliansky
M.Sc. student
-
B.Sc., Bioinformatics, BGU
Katya is applying deep generative networks to image cell data to systematically infer protein localization networks.
