I am currently an Assistant Professor at the Israel Institute of Technology in Israel and a part of the Electrical and Computer Engineering faculty in Technion. I earned my Ph.D. from the Department of Communication Systems Engineering at Ben-Gurion University in Negev, Israel. Previously, I served as a Research Scientist at Intel, where I worked to develop efficient software solutions and implement custom algorithms to perform feature engineering. I then went on to complete my postdoctoral research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). My main areas of research are data processing, signal processing, information theory, security, and networks. In particular, by pooling Signal Processing and Information Theory on data systems and networks, I go from theory to practice and vice-versa. I study how an end-to-end vision of the entire task-oriented acquisition and representation pipeline is essential to allow new and future complex solutions and applications. I am interested in data processing, wireless communication, security, network information theory and network coding, anomaly detection, coding, asynchronous sampling, and computation in networks.
