Four posters and two talks! Our students presented their research on bio-inspired functional materials. A special moment was the talk by Dr. Arad Lang, our former PhD student and now a postdoc at Cambridge Uni, who shared his groundbreaking work. Proud of the whole team!
Yasmin Soltsman, our first graduate from the prestigious “Gvishim” Master’s program, delivered an exceptional seminar. A year of hard work and dedication pays off—congratulations, Yasmin!
Congratulations, Dr. Hadar Shaked, on the successful doctoral seminar that you presented to the faculty! We look forward to your continued success!
Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukka, and Happy New Year! Here’s to another year of scientific exploration and innovation together! Wishing you all a joyous holiday season and a bright start to 2025 from all of us at @pokroy_lab!
Today, after two productive years as a postdoc in our group, we bid farewell to our dear colleague and friend, Lucas Kuhrts, who has contributed immensely to our lab. Lucas’s dedication, hard work, and passion for research have left a lasting mark on our team and our projects.
Throughout his time here, Lucas has not only made significant scientific contributions but has also been a source of support, inspiration, and collaboration for everyone in the lab. His enthusiasm for tackling challenges and his willingness to share knowledge have made him an invaluable part of our team.
As Lucas embarks on his next journey, we wish him all the success in the world. While it’s hard to say goodbye, we are excited to see the incredible work he will continue to do in the future.
Thank you, Lucas, for everything you have brought to our lab. You will be greatly missed, but we know this is just the beginning of many more great accomplishments ahead!
Good luck, and stay in touch!
A great talk was delivered by our PhD student, Hadar Shaked! Greetings from MRS Fall Meeting 2024 in Boston!
Congratulations to Dr. Lotan Portal on receiving her PhD!
Your hard work, dedication, and passion have paid off, and we couldn’t be more proud! Wishing you continued success in all your future endeavors.
