Naama Barkai

Naama Barkai earned her Ph.D. in Theoretical Physics at Hebrew University in Israel in 1995. She then worked as a postdoctoral fellow in the lab of Stan Leibler at Princeton University in the United States. She returned to Israel in 1999 to take a senior scientist position at the Weizmann Institute of Science, and was later appointed as associate professor in 2005 and as professor in 2009 at the same institution. Barkai is the recipient of numerous awards and prizes such as the FEBS/EMBO Women in Science Award (2008), the Helen and Martin Kimmel Award for Innovative Investigation (2007), and the Teva Prize for research in systems biology (2004).

Barkai and her research group use multidisciplinary approaches, combining wet-lab experiments with mathematical modeling, to understand the principles that govern the design and function of biological circuits.
