Three current Charney School members and one alum became new fellows of The Kavli Frontiers of Science Israel-USA
The Kavli Frontiers of Science Israel-USA, held in partnership with the Israel Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Sciences brings together accomplished early career scientists for a three day opportunity to exchange ideas, network, and cross pollinate. This year, three current Charney School members (Dr. Tal Luzzatto Knaan, Prof. Tali Mass, Dr. Aviad Scheinin) and one alum (Dr. Maxim Rubin-Blum) became new fellows, and one Charney School member participated for the fourth time (Dr. Beverly Goodman-Tchernov).
The European Research Executive Agency awarded Prof. Roee Diamant (Hatter Department of Marine Technologies) an ERA Chair
In this capacity he will lead a branch of his Marine Acoustics Lab within the Faculty of Electrical Engineering at the University of Zagreb in Croatia.
Congratulations to Roee and best of luck!

Deep-sea wonderland in Israel is declared a Hope Spot – first discovered by Charney School and partners
In July, the Palmahim Slide (also called a Disturbance) became the first Israeli location designated as a “Hope Spot” by Mission Blue, oceanographer Dr. Sylvia Earle’s organization dedicated to exploring and protecting significant marine areas
Jellyfish are once again approaching Israel’s beaches for their annual summer visit
So where do they come from, what should you do if you get stung, and how long will they stay?
