Congratulations to Boris Pismenny, a PhD student at our faculty advised by Prof. Dan Tsafrir and prof. Adam Morrison, on winning the Blavatnik Award for Outstanding Israeli Doctoral Candidates in computer Science. The prize committee, which included faculty members from the Technion, the Hebrew University, and Tel Aviv University, was very impressed with the level of excellence demonstrated by the research students and recent graduates who submitted their candidacy for the award, but Boris's excellence was particularly outstanding, and therefore he was chosen as one of the four winners for 2023.
