En résumé

Entreprises

• Biozentrum of Basel University (Switzerland, from 03/2017) and Max Planck Institute for Developm - Researcher

  2014 - maintenant Researcher in Pathogen evolution, genomics and biophysics group (under Prof. R. Neher)
  Job responsibilities:
  * Analysis of public and in-house genomic data ;
  * Providing statistical support to research scientists ;
  * Developing analytical and computation tools for studying evolution of viruses ;
  * Following scientific publications ;
  * Publishing research articles and giving presentations in international conferences
  Achievements:
  * Developed method for inferring HIV-1 infection duration from next generation
  sequencing data, for use in epidemiological studies of HIV incidence.
  * Designed innovative analytical and computational framework for inferring
  evolutionary substitution models, for reconstructing phylogenies and detecting
  natural selection.
  * Provided statistical analysis for experiment optimizing culture conditions for S.Ratti
  worms, an important biological model organism.
  * Written multiple scientific articles for top research journals (2 published, 2
  submitted for publication, 1 in preparation.)

• Laboratoire Ondes et Matière d'Aquitaine, University of Bordeaux (France) - Researcher

  2011 - 2014 Researcher in Quantum transport and nano-electro-mechanical systems group (under Prof. Fabio Pistolesi)
  * Designed and modeled an experiment for detection of nano-mechanical vibrations
  using single-molecule spectroscopy, which was later implemented in a laboratory.
  * Analyzed raw data and developed analytical model for fluctuation driven escape of a
  non-linear nano-mechanical oscillator, explaining the experimental results.

• Ben-Gurion University (Beer Sheva, Israel) - Researcher

  2006 - 2011 Researcher in condensed matter physics group (under Prof. Yigal Meir)
  * Developed mathematical model explaining the experimentally observed phase
  switching in a voltage-biased nanoscale Aharonov-Bohm inerferometer.
  * Predicted breaking of phase rigidity in such an interferometer, the predictions were
  confirmed via re-analyzing the experimental results.

• Lehigh University (Bethlehem, Pennsilvania) - Researcher

  2005 - 2006 Researcher in Nanoscience group (under Prof. Slava V. Rotkin)
  * Analyzed metal-insulator transition in DNA-wrapped carbon nanotubes, depending
  on the DNA and the nanotube chiralities.

• Queens College (Flushing, NY, USA) - Researcher

  2004 - 2005 Researcher in Optics and condensed matter theory group (under Prof. Lev Deych and Prof.
  Alexander Lisyansky)
  * Performed mathematical and numerical analysis of screening by optically induced
  carriers in polaritonic band-gap materials, proving robustness of such devices to
  strong electromagnetic pulses.
