I am Maayane and I joined Bar Ilan University \u00a0as a faculty member in October 2021.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>

I graduated from the Ecole Normale Superieure (France), and took part in several research projects in the BIPAC institute<\/a> at University of Oxford (UK), the Alcator C-mod project<\/a> at MIT (Massachussetts, USA), and the seismology group at the Midi-Pyrenees Observatory<\/a> (France). I completed a PhD at University College London (UCL)<\/a>, a postdoc in the experimental astrophysics group<\/a>\u00a0 of the Weizmann Institute of Science<\/a>\u00a0 and a second postdoc at the <\/span>Computational Research Division<\/a> of the <\/span>Lawrence Berkeley National Lab<\/a>, where I am currently a research affiliate.<\/p>

Starting in October 2021, I hope to build a dynamic\u00a0and vibrant Observational (i.e. Experimental) Astrophysics group at Bar-Ilan University. If you are interested in\u00a0transient astrophysical phenomena, wish to\u00a0participate in cutting-edge international telescope\u00a0collaborations and in the Israeli-led ULTRASAT satellite, and if you love challenges, real (BIG) data, and have some knowledge in programming, be in touch<\/a>!<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
