Short Biography
Obtained a B.Sc in Physics/Mathematics/Computer Science from the Hebrew University in Jerusalem (Israel) in 2004. Have worked for one year in Vocaltec as a software engineer. Obtained a M.Sc in Physics at the Basel University (Switzerland) in 2007. Started a Ph.D. in the Weizmann Institute for Science (Israel) in 2008.
In my free time I have been training in Ninjutsu since 1993, am practicing Brazilian Jiujitsu since 2 years, and enjoy yoga, Capoeira, and playing chess sporadically.

Research Summary
I have worked in different research groups in 2006 (Computational Physics, Experimental Molecular Electronics). In 2007 I have written my M.Sc. thesis in the group of Daniel Loss on the study of multi-particle qubits.
Since 2008, I am pursuing my Ph.D in theoretical condensed matter physics. My research interests are:
- Topological phases of quasicrystals.
- Implementations of weak measurements and the Weak Value protocol in condensed matter systems.
- Statistics of quasi-particles in fractional quantum Hall systems and transport between 1D chiral edge states.
- Quantum computation using quantum dots
Additionally, I co-founded the Condensed Matter Physics Journal Club.
