Ms Inbal Tsarfati
Inbal was born in Rishon Le Zion, a small city near Tel Aviv, in August 1982. Just before she went to high-school her family moved to Modi'in, a place she considers as home. During her high school she studied chemistry, physics and computer skills, and decided she wants to continue in a road allowing her to combine all these disciplines. Thus, after serving in the Israeli Army, as required, she moved to Be'er Sheva to study Biotechnology Engineering at Ben Gurion University in the Negev. In her fourth year of undergraduate studies she has applied and was accepted to the fast track towards M.Sc. , and engaged on an interdisciplinary project under the supervision of Dr. Levi Gheber .
During Her M.Sc. she studied the effect of miniaturization of antibody microarray to nanoarray. In this research she modeled the reduction and succeeded miniaturizing the microarray spots to submicron dimensions. In addition she took part in a joint research on the topic "Detection of Nano-biochip Arrays by Raman Spectroscopy", with participation of Prof. Ilana Bar from the Physics Department, Ben Gurion University, and Prof. Karsten Haupt , Compiegne University of Technology, France.
She currently continues her studies as a Ph.D student under the supervision of Dr. Levi Gheber, and concentrates on Development of strategies for fabrication and signal enhancement of protein nano arrays. Within this framework, she is expanding her expertise in Prof. Haupt's lab, in Compiegne.
