Boundless Science, Extraordinary Futures
Join us for our PhD Open Day in the faculties of Life Sciences, and Mathematics and Computer Science at the Weizmann Institute of Science – one of the world’s leading research institutions. This is your opportunity to gain valuable insights into our PhD programs, connect with current PhD students, and explore cutting-edge research in today’s most exciting fields. Discover how studying with us can open doors to groundbreaking discoveries and exceptional opportunities.
The Open Day will be held in Hebrew
Researchers in the Faculties of Life Science (Biology and Biochemistry) at the Weizmann Institute of Science are committed to unraveling the intricacies of life – from the minutiae of individual molecules and cellular signaling pathways to the complexity of whole organisms and behavior. Our research spans various fields, including bimolecular science, immunology, molecular and cell biology, molecular genetics, neuroscience, plant science and regenerative medicine. Our scientists pioneering innovative technologies and employ cutting-edge techniques and big data methodologies across disciplines.
Supported by state-of-the-art life science core facilities, encompassing bioinformatics, multi-omics, microscopy, as well as medicinal chemistry and drug discovery units, our researchers aim to uncover the mechanisms governing life at all scales.
Study theoretical mathematics in areas such as geometry, algebra, analysis, and probability, alongside applied mathematics and theoretical computer Science – ranging from the development of theories that challenge the boundaries of cryptography and complexity theory, to the realms of algorithms and quantum computing. Expand the boundaries of knowledge by integrating machine learning, artificial intelligence, and bioinformatics, while fostering multidisciplinary collaboration in cutting-edge research.
We are all explorers, trying to break new scientific ground. We believe that the best way to learn and develop is to set imaginations and minds free. By taking away limits and hurdles and creating conditions where ideas and people flourish.
Here, we do things differently. Our primary focus is on scientific exploration, which sets the tone for how we approach education and training. Students and postdocs spend most of their time in the labs, working alongside PIs and staff scientists doing pure science. They are immersed in a world-leading scientific institute, guided and supported by scientists who are working at the forefront. They are empowered with the freedom to explore their way.
Here we do boundless science and inspire extraordinary futures.
We want to make sure you have all the information you need. If you're unable to attend due to military service or any other reason, simply send us an email and we will do everything we can to find a solution that works for you.
