e-mail: Simonjamisonrep@gmail.com Simon is the greatest threat to rare reptiles in Israel, as he inevitably finds that what other people could not locate for years is actually extremely common. We are considering patenting him as a reptile locating and capturing device. |
Graduate Students
Gavin Stark
Ph.D. student since November 2018
I am interested in how ecological interactions of species living in extreme environments (such as deserts) are affected by climate change. My study site is located in the extreme environments of the Judean Desert in the Dead Sea Region in eastern Israel.
Moreover, I am currently the Teaching Assistant in the course "Introduction to R" in Tel Aviv University.
I have completed my MS.c. degree (2016-2018) in Shai Meiri's lab on the subject of "Aspects of Longevity Among the Tetrapoda".

Ronny Lark
M.Sc. student Voted most likely to end up on the back of a milk box. House sigil is a crested lark (Galerida cristata) with a crown. My research will compare the efficiency of various climate downscaling models in predicting microclimates based on small scale data gathered in Israel. |

Michael Moses
M.Sc. student I study the effect of climate on the abundance of insects across climatic gradients in Israel, and how climate change may impact populations of insectivores. I'm also a Teaching Assistant in the Advanced Vertebrates course. In general, interested in cool science, cooking and traveling. |

Omer Zlotnik
B.Sc. student I study the effects of global warming on North-American lizards and the potential of vegetation cover to serve as a biological buffer for these impacts. In my study, I use biophysical models to assess the importance of climbing trees as a retreat strategy for avoiding extreme hot temperatures on the ground surface. I'm also a loyal fan of Harry Potter and shallow pop music. Lior Sharabi
B.Sc. student My study aims to predict the movement decisions of mammals under different climatic conditions. For this purpose, I integrate GPS data, remote sensing data, and biophysical models. Biology is my passion, and in the nearest future, I wish to reach the stars with some astrobiology research. Math is my true love, and I'm also often makes a hell of a pancake! |
