During a visit to Canada, Prof. Amos Danielli met with Prof.
Ofer Levi, from the Institute of Biomedical Engineering (BME) of the University of Toronto. Prof. Levi research focuses on developing biomedical imaging systems and optical bio-sensors based on semiconductor devices and nanostructures, and their application to bio-medical diagnostics, in vivo imaging, and the study of bio-molecular interactions.
During a visit to Japan, Dr. Amos Danielli met with Prof. Amy Shen, the provost of OIST (Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology). Prof. Shen research focusing in fundamental aspects of micro and nanofluidic flows and biotechnology, nanotechnology and healthcare applications of bioassays, biosensing, bio and nanomaterials synthesis.

Dr. Danielli specializes in Electro-optics and Bio-photonics. After completing his Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in the field of optical communication at Tel Aviv University, he worked in industry for eight years and then return to the Academy. During his studies for P.hD, he developed a new technology to rapidly detect fluorescent-labeled probes at very low concentrations in homogenous solutions and continued developing it during his post-doctoral studies in Washington University, St. Louis.
In 2014, he has returned to Israel and joined the faculty of Engineering at Bar Ilan University.
During his stay in the US, he founded a company that commercializes this technology, and established connections with key figures in the fields of medical laboratory and diagnostics, and especially among troponin and heart attack specialists.
We are always happy to hear from postdocs and students at all levels (BSc., MSc. and PhD.) with various backgrounds (mathematics, engineering, physics, biology) who are interested by the kind of research we are doing. send an email to Amos.danielli2@gmail.com
