Investigating bacteria-bacteriophage diversity to develop phage libraries for treatment of bacterial infections
Project Overview. The World Health Organisation (WHO) predicts antimicrobial resistant (AMR) infections will be the leading cause of death globally by 2050. Read more
Novel AI methods for zoonotic disease prevention and prediction - Host association studies of Salmonella Typhimurium using Machine Learning
In this PhD project you will join a Government-Academia collaborative project to develop novel computational approaches to detect and predict a type of infectious diseases termed zoonotic disease that can be transmitted between species, from animals to humans (and vice-versa). . Read more
Combining protein modelling and synthetic biology to alter and expand of host range of phages
Phage therapy relies on the use of bacterial viruses for treatment of infectious diseases. Bacteriophages are natural predators of bacteria, but their specificity varies significantly depending on the host species. Read more
Understanding the molecular mechanism of a novel innate bacterial defence system and its synergy with CRISPR-Cas
Prokaryotes have evolved over billions of years alongside their viruses, the bacteriophages, or “phages”. To prevent viral infection, prokaryotes have evolved rudimentary immune mechanisms, the most widespread and well‐studied of which are the Restriction‐Modification and the CRISPR‐Cas enzymes.

Faculty of Medicine and Faculty of Dental Medicine
At The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, ranked 77th among the world's 100 leading universities (Shanghai Ranking, 2022), international students can earn a PhD in biomedical sciences at the Faculty of Medicine or the Faculty of Dental Medicine. Read more
Investigating interactions between temperate bacteriophages and their bacterial hosts
Our research focuses on Bacteriophages (phages), which are viruses that infect and kill bacteria, but can also form partnerships as prophages, acting like internal puppet masters to change the fundamental biology of their bacterial hosts. Read more
Exploring the relationship between gut microbes, phages, metabolites and cardiometabolic health using computational methods
Metabolomics and the gut microbiome are intricately involved in the risk of metabolic diseases. Read more
