Congratulations to Elay Dahan for successfully passing his final MSc exam
Congratulations to Ariel Frank for successfully passing his PhD candidacy exam (direct track)
Congratulations to Eyal Hanania on receiving a Research Prize in Data Science
Eyal Hanania is an M.Sc. student jointly supervised by me and Dr. Moti Freiman from the faculty of Biomedical Engineering. His interdisciplinary research involves data sciences with biomedical engineering and clinical understanding. Eyal demonstrated outstanding skills in conducting such interdisciplinary research. His insistence on thoroughly understanding the clinical domain he is working on led to several fundamental contributions in cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
I congratulate Eyal on receiving the Student Research Prize for Cross-PI Collaboration in Data Science in the Funding of PBC (VATAT) for 2023-2024.
Welcome to Dr. Amir Ivry for joining our team as a Visiting Lecturer
Amir completed his Ph.D. (direct track) under my supervision in 2023. Amir is currently the Head of Data, Teams CMD, at Microsoft Advanced Technology Labs.
I am happy to announce that Amir is joining our team as a Visiting Lecturer.
His research is focused on hands-free speech communication in noisy, transient, and reverberant environments using deep neural networks. In particular, he develops real-time and low-resource implementations that can be embedded into speech-based hands-free communication platforms. Applications include voice activity detection, residual echo suppression, acoustic echo cancellation, speech enhancement, and acoustic fencing for speech separation.
Congratulations to Ariel Frank on receiving the Excellence in Research Award
Ariel Frank is a Ph.D. student (direct track) who is conducting his research under my supervision. His research field is region-of-interest beamforming. Ariel has shown extraordinary research capabilities, commitment, and deep understanding.
I congratulate Ariel on receiving a fellowship from the Fellowship Initiative Foundation in recognition of his outstanding research achievements.
Congratulations to Ben Dgani for successfully passing his final MSc exam
Excited to receive an Honorary Doctorate from Karunya Institute of Technology and Sciences
I’m excited to receive an Honorary Doctorate from Karunya Institute of Technology and Sciences (deemed university) in India.
Karunya Institute of Technology and Sciences (KITS) was established in 1986 and has the highest accreditation A++ from National Assessment and Accreditation (NAAC) in India.
