The Laureates will join a cadre of young scientists from across Israel who have been honored by the Blavatnik Awards in Israel since their launch in 2017. In addition, the Laureates will become part of the international Blavatnik Science Scholars community, which, by the close of 2021, will total 350 young scientists from around the world. Each summer the Laureates are invited to attend the annual Blavatnik Science Symposium in New York City at the New York Academy of Sciences, where past and present Blavatnik Awards honorees from around the world come together to share new ideas and forge collaborations for novel, cross-disciplinary research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe passing year has demonstrated just how important groundbreaking science is,\u201d said <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/lenblavatnik.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Len Blavatnik<\/a>, Founder and Chairman of Access Industries and Head of the Blavatnik Family Foundation. <\/strong>\u201cIt\u2019s imperative to encourage young scientists to venture broadly in their respective fields and to push the boundaries of scientific discovery. The achievements by these three outstanding Israeli scientists are testament to their brilliance, perseverance, and imagination\u2014characteristics held by many young Israeli researchers who will continue to make remarkable contributions to science for generations to come.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nyas.org\/bios\/nicholas-dirks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Nicholas B. Dirks<\/a>, President and CEO of the New York Academy of Sciences<\/strong>, said that \u201cThe 2021 Blavatnik Awards in Israel Laureates are an impressive group of scientific pioneers. On behalf of the New York Academy of Sciences, we are proud of the contributions that these young scientists in Israel are making to the global scientific community, improving lives for the better through their research. We congratulate them on their achievements and look forward to seeing what their future holds.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.academy.ac.il\/Branches\/Branch.aspx?nodeId=826&amp;branchId=361\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Professor Nili Cohen<\/a>, President of the Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities, <\/strong>said: \u201cIn the midst of a challenging year, we are extremely proud that our young scientists are venturing forward to new heights, and advancing scientific innovation and breakthrough. Together with the Blavatnik Family Foundation and the New York Academy of Sciences, we are delighted to honor these exceptional Israeli scientists with this prestigious Award.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the nomination period for the 2021 Blavatnik Awards for Young Scientists in Israel, 37 nominations were received from seven universities across the country. Members of the Awards\u2019 <a href=\"http:\/\/blavatnikawards.org\/awards\/israel-awards\/scientific-advisory-council\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Scientific Advisory Council<\/a>, which includes Nobel Laureates, Professors Aaron Ciechanover and David Gross, along with Chairman of the Israel Space Agency and Chairman of the National Council for R&amp;D for the Ministry of Science and Technology of Israel, Professor Isaac Ben-Israel, were also invited to submit nominations. Three distinguished juries composed of leading scientists representing the three disciplinary categories and lead by Israel Academy members, selected the 2021 Laureates.<strong><br><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>About the Laureates<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>PHYSICAL SCIENCES &amp; ENGINEERING:<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Prof. <a href=\"http:\/\/blavatnikawards.org\/honorees\/profile\/ido-kaminer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ido Kaminer<\/a>, Assistant Professor, The Viterbi Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Technion \u2013 Israel Institute of Technology<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The work of Ido Kaminer, PhD, has influenced fundamental physics research with real world applications by transforming our understanding of the quantum nature of light-matter interactions. New technologies developed in his laboratory open up the possibility of compact and tunable X-ray apparatuses for applications such as medical imaging and security scanning. He has also uncovered new aspects of the Cherenkov Effect\u2014a burst of light seen when high-speed particles travel through gas, liquid, or solid\u2014that was first discovered in 1934. The Cherenkov Effect was thought to be fully understood, but Professor Kaminer discovered hidden quantum features not previously identified by classical physics. This discovery led him to develop novel high energy particle detectors for particle accelerators such as the one at CERN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"626\" src=\"https:\/\/forbes.co.il\/e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Ido-Kaminer-_BAYS-Israel-1024x626.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2051\" srcset=\"https:\/\/forbes.co.il\/e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Ido-Kaminer-_BAYS-Israel-1024x626.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/forbes.co.il\/e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Ido-Kaminer-_BAYS-Israel-300x183.jpg 300w, https:\/\/forbes.co.il\/e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Ido-Kaminer-_BAYS-Israel-768x469.jpg 768w, https:\/\/forbes.co.il\/e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Ido-Kaminer-_BAYS-Israel-1536x939.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/forbes.co.il\/e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Ido-Kaminer-_BAYS-Israel.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Ido Kaminer.

The ability to react to external stimuli, such as light, heat, and touch, is fundamental to the existence and functioning of living organisms. Organic chemist, Rafal Klajn, PhD, has developed dynamic nanomaterials that are engineered to possess some of these \u201clife-like\u201d characteristics. For example, he has created cube-shaped, magnetic nanoparticles that are capable of self-assembling into complex double-helical materials in the presence of a magnetic field.\u00a0 These and other dynamic nanomaterials have potential applications in such diverse fields as water purification, energy storage, and catalysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/forbes.co.il\/e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Rafal-Klajn-2021-BAYS-Israel-Chem-Laureate.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2053\" srcset=\"https:\/\/forbes.co.il\/e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Rafal-Klajn-2021-BAYS-Israel-Chem-Laureate.jpg 800w, https:\/\/forbes.co.il\/e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Rafal-Klajn-2021-BAYS-Israel-Chem-Laureate-300x253.jpg 300w, https:\/\/forbes.co.il\/e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Rafal-Klajn-2021-BAYS-Israel-Chem-Laureate-768x648.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>Rafal Klajn.

He has helped to establish the new field of neuroecology, the study of how the brain controls behavior in a rapidly changing natural environment; this combination is crucial to our understanding of biological processes in the natural world.

He has developed novel miniaturized GPS and other devices that monitor the behavior of freely moving bats in the wild. This work provides broader insight into group behaviors, integration of sensory information in the brain, and real-time decision making. Yovel also applies his understanding of bat echolocation in a range of robots. Yovel has made his technology freely available; it is used in field work internationally and has the potential to aid in engineering acoustic control of autonomous vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:11px\"><strong><em>Photos: Blavatnik Awards for Young Scientists (BAYS)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Three young scientists from leading research institutions in Israel will each be awarded US$100,000 for their groundbreaking scientific research.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":2051,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[71],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2050","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-innovation"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
