RO'I FORMAN
MSc Student
DANIELLA ALPERT
Undergraduate Student
Ro’i studied the direct effects of wild and domestic mammalian grazing on insect communities in Israel and China (with Prof. Moshe Inbar). His project combined fieldwork, molecular biology, and bioinformatics.
Daniella’s student project focuses on the diet of migrating songbirds in the Hula Lake stopover site.

DR. TALI SARAH BERMAN
Principal Investigator
Helmsley Fellow
I am intrigued by many aspects of ecology, particularly how species from various taxonomic groups (such as birds, mammals, arthropods, and microbes) interact and how these interactions affect different ecological networks. In my lab, we explore a wide range of ecological questions, integrating classic ecology approaches with molecular techniques to study them.
BARAK BENARROCH
Undergraduate Student
Barak’s student project focuses on the microbiome of migrating songbirds.
MOSHE LEIBOVICH
Lab Manager
Moshe has experience in molecular ecology and field research and an MSc in biology from the Tel-Hai academic college. Moshe (among other things) investigates microbial interactions in birds.
DAN SZKLOWIN
MSc Student
Dan studies the microbial and trophic interactions of migrating songbirds.
Umesh Karipath Pallikandi
Postdoc fellow
Umesh studies the nutritional ecology of Mirids as part of a collaboration research program funded by the DFG.
