Ady Stern
Adiel (Ady) Stern (born 1960) is an Israeli physicist.
Ady Stern is a professor at the Condensed Matter Physics Department at the Weizmann Institute of Science and a theoretical physicist focused on the ways quantum theory manifests in electronic systems. He is best known for his research on the theoretical aspects of the fractional quantum Hall effect[1] and the existence of quasiparticles with one-quarter the charge of an electron.[2] In his scientific work, Stern emphasizes finding clear physical interpretations for complex phenomena, while his passion for popularizing science is reflected in his hobby of science communication.
Biography
[edit]Ady was born and raised in Beersheba, and presently lives in Tel-Aviv. he studied in Tel-Aviv University for a B.Sc. in Mathematics, Computer Science and Physics, and for a Ph.D. in Physics. Following his Ph.D. he spent three years as a Junior Fellow at the Harvard Society of Fellows, and at the end of these three years he joined the Weizmann Institute as a faculty member.[3]
