Research Labs
Reut Shalgi
Systems Biology approaches to Proteostasis and Neurodegeneration.
The Shalgi lab explores how stress regulation, aging and neurodegenerative diseases are all connected, in order to reveal: how can we harness stress regulation to battle disease?
Noam Kaplan
The Kaplan lab combines experimental and computational methods to study how the 3D organization of the genome is encoded and how it mediates biological function in health and disease.
Hadas Benisty
The Benisty lab studies interpretable dynamic models for neuronal networks for learning processes and degenerative diseases.
Omri Barak
The Barak lab explores the hypothesis that systems that learn can be useful models of one another. This is because of general principles that seem to transcend specific instances, such as multiplicity of solutions, low-rank perturbations and more.
Dori Derdikman
How does the brain represent space? How do we navigate? Our lab researches the brain algorithms for orienting and spatial memory, trying to understand how these brain network are formed, how do they change, and how they are read out.
Keren Yizhak
The lab of Computational Cancer Genomics
Ruth Hershberg
The Hershberg lab studies the dynamics of bacterial adaptation under a variety of selective pressures, from extremely prolonged resource exhaustion to growth under antibiotic treatment.
Naama Geva-Zatorsky
The Geva-Zatorsky lab combines computational and experimental approaches to study the microbiome, the hidden microbes living within us, and the ways we harness the microbiome for future diagnostics and therapeutics.
Shai Shen Orr
Systems Immunology and Precision Medicine Lab: Drivers of immune variation, their evolutionary origin and implications for precision medicine.
Ben Engelhard
The Engelhard lab studies the neural circuits in the brain underlying complex behavior and are especially interested in using computational and experimental approaches to understand the algorithms by which the dopamine system in the brain underlies reward based-learning.
