Neta Regev-Rudzki,
Assistant Professor, Department of Biomolecular Sciences
Dr. Neta Regev-Rudzki completed a BSc in chemistry, an MSc in biochemistry, and a PhD in microbiology and cell biology (2010), all at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. During her postdoctoral training at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research (WEHI) in Melbourne, Australia, she became interested in parasitology and turned her attention to malaria. While working as a postdoctoral researcher, she discovered that malaria parasites, which live inside red blood cells, transfer episomal genes between them via exosome-like vesicles. Dr. Regev-Rudzki joined the faculty of the Department of Biomolecular Sciences at the Weizmann Institute of Science (Israel) in October 2014. Dr Regev-Rudzki’s lab is focused on studying modes of cell-cell communication developed by one of the most lethal human pathogens, malaria parasites.
