Ever since I was 19, all I wanted to do was be a scientist at an Israeli university. Today, I learned that I will be able to do it for as long as I wish, in the BEST department, and that I have been promoted to Associate Professor. A dream come true :)

What an unexpected and pleasant surprise is receiving the Israel Chemical Society Excellent Young Scientist Prize. Thank you!
Would have never happened without my amazing students and incredible department and colleagues.

Periodic boundary conditions for bosonic path integral molecular dynamics We develop an algorithm for bosonic path integral molecular dynamics (PIMD) simulations with periodic boundary conditions (PBC) that scales quadratically with t

Very few things make me prouder than having Jacob and @yotamfe.bsky.social's paper published today in JCP in the special issue honoring one of my personal heroes, Abraham Nitzan.

Abe is a giant of theoretical chemistry (in Israel and globally) and an inspiration to us all.

Defect Positioning in Combinatorial Metamaterials combined rigorous mathematical analysis with Yotam Feldman and Guy Cohen’s ability to translate our questions on mechanical incompatibility within the metamaterial to a constraint satisfaction problem.

Breaking Mechanical Holography in Combinatorial Metamaterials started from Naomi Spiro’s undergraduate summer project and Ofri Palti’s highschool final project. Breaking the link between the lattice's boundary & inside allows to design deformation texture on the entire boundary.

Had a great time talking with Martin about the various astonishments I've experienced while thinking hard on invariant inference and finding myself studying learning theory. Also: SAT solving for metamaterials w/ @yairshokef.bsky.social, and the joys of feeling stupid. Hope you'll enjoy it.
