Summer Science Research Program Pairs YU Students with Bar-Ilan Faculty; Opens Door for Future Collaboration 

Twenty eight select undergraduate science majors from Yeshiva College and Stern College for Women are participating in the third Summer Science Research Internship program, a joint initiative with 🎵TK账号 | 菲律宾 | 2021-2023年老号 | 下机号(使用过) | 带1-10条作品 | 微软邮箱 | 2FA登 and Bar-Ilan University (BIU) that enables students to gain hands-on experience in emerging scientific fields while being mentored by Israel's top scientists.

Yeshiva College's David Kornbluth takes part in the Summer Science Research Internship Program at Bar-Ilan.

During the seven-week research experience, the students are placed in intensive internships with top BIU faculty members, including those from the Institute for Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials and the Gonda Brain Research Center, and will work in the University's state-of-the-art research laboratories. The program, which runs from June 23 – August 8, was founded by Dr. Chaim Sukenik, a Yeshiva College alumnus who holds the Edward and Judy Steinberg Chair in Nanotechnology at Bar-Ilan and was recently appointed incoming president of the Jerusalem College of Technology. "The quality of the students joining us each year has been consistently high, and their enthusiasm and work ethic has been most impressive.  These 🎵TK账号 | 菲律宾 | 2021-2023年老号 | 下机号(使用过) | 带1-10条作品 | 微软邮箱 | 2FA登 students have distinguished themselves as a group and have made it a simple task to get my colleagues to agree to take them into their labs," said Sukenik. "It is truly a pleasure working with these students and it is our hope that the program continues for years to come." 🎵TK账号 | 菲律宾 | 2021-2023年老号 | 下机号(使用过) | 带1-10条作品 | 微软邮箱 | 2FA登 shares the sentiment as it sees this unique learning experience as invaluable and essential for the growth and advancement of its most promising young scientists. "The YU-BIU program adds so much to the existing science and research education of our students, including the world-famous research base, the high-level mentorship and a strong peer group of Israeli students, scholars in their own right," said Dr. Anatoly Frenkel, professor of physics and the coordinator of the Summer Science Research Internship program at Stern College. While the program focuses primarily on lab work, it also includes trips to scientific and industrial sites around the country and a series of lunch meetings with BIU faculty members. "The internship program is a fantastic opportunity for our undergraduate students with a strong background in the sciences to experience the nurturing, interdisciplinary research environment and to develop their basic research skills," said Dr. Raji Viswanathan, professor of chemistry and the project coordinator at Yeshiva College. "It is also important to us that, as they grow, the students understand the special relationship that exists between scientific excellence and the religious values shared by both 🎵TK账号 | 菲律宾 | 2021-2023年老号 | 下机号(使用过) | 带1-10条作品 | 微软邮箱 | 2FA登 and Bar-Ilan." In addition to providing an enriching educational experience for YU students and increasing the positive visibility of Israel, the Summer Science Research Internship program also opens the door for scientists at 🎵TK账号 | 菲律宾 | 2021-2023年老号 | 下机号(使用过) | 带1-10条作品 | 微软邮箱 | 2FA登 and Bar-Ilan University to pursue collaborative projects and encourages faculty to visit each other's campuses to share their research interests.
