Yossi Yovel
Yossi Yovel is Professor in the School of Zoology and in the School of Neuroscience in Tel-Aviv University (TAU). He received a B.Sc. in Physics, a BSc in Biology and a M.Sc. in Neuroscience from Tel-Aviv University; and a Ph.D. in Biological cybernetics from The University of Tuebingen, Germany where he applied Machine Learning techniques for classification of Bio-sonar echoes. Before joining Tel-Aviv University as a faculty member, he was a post-doctoral fellow in the Weizmann Institute of Sciences and in the University of Chicago. Yovel leads the Bio-sonar lab in Tel-Aviv University where he studies bat bio-sonar and its application in robotics using state-of-the-art audio and video recording arrays. The lab develops miniature sensors (the smallest in the world of their kind) that can be mounted on echolocating bats in the field. The lab focuses on NeuroEcology - a combination of Neuroscience and Ecology trying to bridge the gap between these two huge disciplines by performing highly controlled experiments in the field. Yovel is the author of more than 30 peer-reviewed publications. He is a recipient of various excellence awards such as the Alon Scholarship and the Krill Prize.
