Congratulations to our PhD student, Sophie Terenteva, for winning the 2025 publications award of BINA center on her last publication.
The paper can be found in the Publications section.
On September 11, 2025, exactly two years after their first meeting, Prof. Amos Danielli met in Boston with Prof. Kimberly Hamad-Schifferli (University of Massachusetts), whose research work focuses on nanoparticle-based rapid antigen tests enhanced by AI, to launch their joint NSF-BSF project on flavivirus detection, together with Prof. Eli Schwartz (Sheba Medical Center). This three-year collaboration integrates AI-driven diagnostics and highly sensitive biosensing systems to detect viruses such as Zika, Dengue, and West Nile, with the goal of developing a low-cost, open-source diagnostic tool to address emerging global health threats.

Prof. 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
