This research group at the Hebrew University Departnebt of Genetics studies nuclear lamina, which is present underneath the inner nuclear membrane (INM). It is composed of the lamin intermediate filaments and lamin-associated proteins. The nuclear lamina is involved in most fundamental nuclear activities and mutations in the genes encoding nuclear lamina proteins lead to numerous heritable diseases. They are using a combination of structural, genetic and cell and molecular biology methods to determine the structure of lamins, their roles in mechano transduction, nuclear organization and metabolism.Qualifications

Qlight Nanotech (subsidiary of Merck) develops nanocrystals with unique optical properties for numerous applications, including technologies that can revolutionize the mechanism of action of flat panel displays. Its innovative film technology for LCD displays uses unique nanocrystals for reducing energy consumption while significantly improving the color quality. The technology can nearly double the battery run time in mobile devices, and reduce by almost half the energy consumption of TV sets. The company's film also improves the color quality of the display thus dramatically upgrading the user's viewing experience.Qualifications
