About

profile_picFascinated by science from an early age, I started my academic career in 1999 when I enrolled to the Mathematical Physics programme at the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, finishing with both a BA in maths and a BA in physics in 2003. Completely smitten by maths, in particular the field of Analysis, I continued my studies at the Technion and obtained my MA Degree in 2006. Subsequently, I was a accepted into a Ph.D programme in Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech) in 2007, and obtained my Doctorate degree in December 2011, under the supervision of Prof. Michael Loss.

My main research interests are applied analysis, applied probability, PDEs, semigroup and spectral theory, functional inequalities, optimal transportation, interpolation theory – and their interactions.

I am an Assistant Professor for Analysis and Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) at Durham University. In addition, together with Josephine Evans, I act as Network organiser for the INI supported Network KineticNet. More information about it can be found here.
