Contact address: 461 Koshland Hall, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720-3102
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE:
2006 – present UC Berkeley and Lawrence Berkeley National Lab:
Postdoctoral researcher
I have been involved in several diverse projects with most of my work related to 3D object reconstruction from extremely noisy 2D images produced by single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM).
• Developed a novel algorithm to enable an accurate registration/alignment of images produced from heterogeneous cryo-EM data. Implementation is in C++.
• Developed a novel state-of-the-art methodology for the multi-model reconstruction from heterogeneous cryo-EM data. The first general approach to solve the multi-model reconstruction problem. Implementation is in Matlab, Perl and EM software packages.
• Prioritization of bacterial genes for protein-protein interaction analysis.
• Phylogenetic analysis of GroEL protein family.
• Contributed to the development of a new alignment-free protein structure comparison approach based on Writhe decomposition.
1998 – 2006 Tel-Aviv University: Ph.D./M.Sc. researcher
I worked on various topics in structural bioinformatics which mainly involved application of geometrical approaches to solve biological problems. My work resulted in new theoretical results and several novel algorithms that set new benchmarks in the field. All algorithm implementations were done in C++ on Linux.
• Developed the following methods:
o Alignment of flexible protein structures.
o Alignment of multiple protein structures.
o Structure-based multiple sequence alignment.
o Finding a common geometrical pattern between protein binding sites.
• Proved several complexity results related to the common point set problem.
• Contributed to the development of a method for fitting multiple structures into cryo-EM density maps of intermediate resolution.
• Contributed to the GAMB++ library (a C++ library on Unix for structural bioinformatics).
1998 – 1999 Art-In Internet Technologies & Electronic Commerce Ltd:
Software Engineer (full time)
• Developed processing and billing of web application usage. Development in Java and an Oracle DB.
• Designed and implemented a module to enable secure user verification during billing transactions.
• Web server design using JSP and HTML.
