Israeli engineer and scientist
Zeev Zalevsky (Hebrew: זאב זלבסקי; born 1971) is an Israeli engineer and scientist specializing in optical imaging and photonics, with applications in biomedical optics. He is a professor at Bar-Ilan University, where his research focuses on super-resolution imaging, biomedical optics, nanophotonics, and optical computing.
Biography
He earned his B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering from Tel Aviv University in 1993, graduating cum laude, and completed his Ph.D. there in 1996. His doctoral thesis focused on “Unconventional Optical Processors for Pattern Recognition and Signal Processing“.
From 1993 to 1996, he worked as a teaching assistant at Tel Aviv University and later served as an adjunct lecturer at Ariel Academic College and Tel Aviv University in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
He joined Bar-Ilan University in 2004, where he was promoted to associate professor in 2007 and to full professor in 2010. He has also held senior academic leadership roles at the university, including serving as Dean of the Faculty of Engineering and as Vice President for academia–industry relations.[1]
Entrepreneurial endeavors
Zalevsky has been involved in the commercialization of research in optics and biomedical engineering. He co-founded ContinUse Biometrics, a company established in 2015 that develops contact-free optical technologies for health monitoring. He is also a co-founder of Super-Spectra, a company developing non-invasive imaging technologies for Alzheimer’s disease diagnostics.
