Elias Mizrahi, a second-year Master\u2019s degree student supervised by the Head of the Department Prof. Revital Bookman, Dr. Nadya Teutsch (Geological Survey of Israel), and Dr. Tamar Guy-Haim (Israel Oceanographic and Limnological Research), is working with zooplankton samples from Haifa Bay to measure concentrations of heavy metals. \u201cIt is a very important research\u201d, Elias says. \u201cI will examine concentrations of several heavy metals \u2013 Hg, Zn, Pb, Cd, and others \u2013 in subsamples of zooplankton sorted according to size fraction and taxa. I will also work with previously collected samples and perform stable isotope analyses (N and C) to assess the trophic web. It will all lead me to my goal\u201d.<\/p>

Asked what helps him in conducting such scrupulous research, Elias admits that what supports him is his wife, his family, and his faith in God. Additionally, his hobbies support him as well. \u201cI love playing footvolley and soccer\u201d, he says. \u201cThe sport is essential to keep our minds working well\u201d.<\/p>

Elias is excited about his project as much as he is excited about the Department of Marine Geosciences. \u201cThe Department has students from different backgrounds, nationalities, and religions\u201d, he says. \u201cWhat they have in common is the belief that education is the best way to have a promising future and that by working hard together, we will get there\u201d.<\/p>

Asked how recent tragic events in Israel affected him, Elias says that he tries to stay strong. \u201cI am originally from Brazil and I had a good life there, but I left it to come, study, and work in Israel. I want to write a beautiful story of my life, and in all beautiful stories, we must go through challenging chapters and in the end, it will make us stronger and smarter. So these challenging events will not change my plans \u2013 after my Master\u2019s studies in the Marine Geosciences Department, I want to do my PhD there working with the same topic I work with now.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Parth Shah, a PhD student supervised by Prof. Nicolas Waldmann, is a multi-award-winning scientist who presented his research at various scientific conferences and published papers in peer-reviewed journals. In his studies, he aims to reconstruct centennial-scale climate variability, and in his spare time, he prefers to combine hobbies and science. In the future, Parth is planning to pursue postdoctoral studies under the guidance of his current supervisor.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\tRead More >>\t\t<\/a>\n\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/article>\n\t\t\t\t
