Ron Folman (Hebrew: רון פולמן; (Born Feb 16th, 1963), is an Israeli quantum physicist and social activist. He works at the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (BGU) where he heads the Atom Chip group..[1].
Biography
Folman, born in Tel Aviv, is the son of Russian born Ahuva (Luba) Gordon and Polish born Yeshayahu Folman. Folman’s mother, who barely escaped with her family from the burning city of Minsk as the Nazi army advanced, tried to make it to the land of Israel on the famous Exodus refugee ship, only to be returned by the British to Germany.
In 1998, Folman received his PhD degree from the Weizmann Institute of Science (work conducted at CERN). Between the years 2000-2003, he worked as a Researcher at the University of Heidelberg (Marie Curie fellow), Germany, and before that in 1999-2000 as a post-doctoral fellow in Innsbruck.[2] He is an advocate of Human Rights, Animal Rights, Social justice, Peace and Environmental sustainability.
Folman’s father is a survivor of Auschwitz where he was numbered B-1367. Folman tattooed an exact replica on his arm.[3][4]
Activism
- Human Rights: Folman has been a member of Amnesty International (AI) and in the 90s he was the chairperson of the Israeli Section of the organization.
- Environmental Sustainability: Folman has been an active member of Greenpeace[5]
- Social Justice: Folman was a member of the board of the University center for the promotion of education and careers among the Bedouins of the Negev desert.
Science
Folman[6] is a professor of quantum physics[7] at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (BGU) where he heads the Atom Chip group. He was the founder and first director of the BGU center for quantum science and technology since 2010,[8] and the founder and first director of the center for nano-fabrication[9] since 2003. Folman is one of the inventors of the Atom Chip.[10]
Folman is involved in anti-matter physics at CERN (GBAR) and in the searches for Dark Matter (GNOME). In 2011, he received the Willis Lamb award[11] and in 2013, he was a Miller visiting professor at Berkeley[12]
