Staff Scientist
Gideon completed his BSc (2005), MSc (2007) and PhD (2015) at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. His MSc thesis title is: Noether Conservation Laws and Conformal Infinity, under the guidance of (the late) Prof. Joseph Katz. For his PhD, Gideon studied the electrical properties of guanine-based DNA derivatives in the group of Prof. Danny Porath. The dissertation is: Development of novel electrical characterization methods and measurements of G4-DNA and DNA Derivatives. Gideon then proceeded to do biophysics research into the stability of telomeres at NCSU in the groups of Profs. Robert Riehn and Hong Wang. Later, Gideon worked as a JSPS scholar at Osaka University, studying fountain pen lithography in the lab of Prof. Takuya Matsumoto. Since 2020, Gideon has been teaching Maths and Physics at HIT and Sami Shamoon College. Since March 2024, Gideon is a research associate at the lab, with a focus on electrochemical sensors and AFM-SECM.
