Biography

Prof. Abu-Reziq completed his doctorate at the Hebrew University under the guidance of the late Prof. Jochanan Blum and Prof. David Avnir, in catalysis and sol-gel chemistry. After receiving his Ph.D. degree in 2004, he moved to Ottawa University, Canada, to do his postdoctoral research in the labs of Prof. Howard Alper, in the field of nanocatalysis. In 2006, he joined the company Sol-Gel Technologies as Senior Researcher and spent two years in developing micro and nano-encapsulation systems based on sol-gel process as drug delivery systems. In 2008, He was appointed as Senior Lecturer at Casali Center for Applied Chemistry and Institute of Chemistry and in 2015 he was promoted to associate Professor. His research focuses on nanocatalysis, green chemistry and developing micro and nanoencapsulation methods.
