Naama Barkai#

Short laudatio by Adi Kimchi#

After studying physics and defending a Ph.D thesis in Theoretical Physics Naama Barkai joined the laboratory of Professor S. Leibler at Princeton as a postdoctoral fellow and started to study biological networks and their robustness.

She returned to Israel and joined the faculty of the Weizmann Institute with a joint appointment in the Department of Molecular Genetics and Physics of Complex Systems. She is currently a full Professor at the Department of Molecular genetics.

Professor Barkai is one of the world leaders in the emerging field of Systems Biology. She has made major contributions to our understanding of morphogens gradients and early development. She has also made major contributions to the analysis of large scale gene expression patterns, transcriptional networks and evolution of gene expression control.

She was an EMBO Young Investigator, became an EMBO member in 2007 and received the first FEBS/EMBO award for Women in Science in 2008.
