Aviv Regev is a computational biologist at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard,[2] an associate professor in the department of biology at Massachusetts Institute of Technology[3] and an Early Career Scientist at Howard Hughes Medical Institute.[4]

Education

Regev completed her Ph.D. at Tel Aviv University under the supervision of Eva Jablonka and Ehud Shapiro[5]

Research

Regev's highly cited[6][7][8] research includes work on gene expression[9][10] (with Eran Segal and David Botstein), and the use of π-calculus to represent biochemical processes.[11][12]

Awards

Regev was awarded the Overton Prize in 2008 for "outstanding accomplishment to a scientist in the early to mid stage of his or her career".[1]
