Anat Nizhinsky is a scientist and educator with impressive achievements in the fields of physics and life sciences. A graduate of Ben-Gurion University with a B.Sc. in Physics and Bar-Ilan University with an M.Sc. in Life Sciences, Nizhinsky served in a significant role as a physicist in the field of aerial defense, including work on Arrow and Iron Dome systems. During her military service, she led complex projects from planning to execution, developed technical training programs, and volunteered in programs promoting women in science and engineering. Her master's research focused on genomic instability of the Rotavirus, investigating the effects of genetic manipulations on virus replication and its potential use as a vector for gene cloning and expression. Her research conclusions opened new possibilities for studying bacterial infections and understanding genetic effects on cells. Currently, Nizhinsky dedicates herself to teaching advanced-level physics and making science accessible at an academic level to the younger generation, combining her rich experience in research and development with her passion for education, thereby contributing to shaping the next generation of scientists and engineers in Israel.
