Prof. Uziel Sandler, Director

Professor Uziel Sandler is one of the founders of the advanced discipline called Fuzzy Dynamics, which describes evolution of complex systems with uncertainty in their dynamics laws. Fuzzy Dynamics has been successfully applied to modeling of immune system cells maturation and neural cells behavior. Uziel Sandler is also an expert in DNA and Macromolecular Dynamics and Evolutionary Computations. He has published more than 80 academic articles in prestigious scientific journals and three books among which Neural Cell Behavior and Fuzzy Logic, Springer, NY, 2008. Prof. Sandler has served as chair in international conferences and as a member in several worldwide committees in the above-mentioned fields. Prof. Sandler holds a Ph.D. in Theoretical Physics from L.V. Kirensky Institute of Physics, Academy of Science, of the former USSR.
