The Zuckerman community has been stepping up since the start of the war in Israel, proving that science has the power to transcend the walls of the laboratory.

Stronger together
Five students from Arielle Fischer’s Biomotion Lab at the Technion were drafted at the start of the war. The Zuckerman Faculty Scholar thanked her students with “Stronger Together” t-shirts

One good turn…
Zuckerman postdoctoral alum Lucien Weiss, now an Assistant Professor at Polytechnique Montréal’s Department of Engineering Physics, completed his research under Zuckerman Faculty Scholar Professor Yoav Schechtman at the Technion. Weiss is currently hosting Wade-Hann-Caruthers at his lab in Montreal.

From the Negev to Miami
Zuckerman Postdoc Grace Snyder began her postdoctoral research in May 2023 at Benyamin Rosental’s lab at Ben-Gurion University. With research slowing to a halt when when the young PI was drafted at the start of the war, Rosenthal’s long-time collaborator Prof. Nikki Traylor-Knowles, at the University of Miami, proposed to host Grace and another Ben-Gurion University student at her Cnidarian Immunity lab so as not to disrupt their research.
