The over arching theme connecting these various interests, is the nascent field of “big data astronomy”. What can we do with large amounts of data, and/or highly dimensional data, that we could not (or did not think to) do before. I graduated from the Tel-Aviv University in 2007, under the supervision of Prof. D. Maoz. As a postdoc I was at UC Berkeley and at the Lawrence Berkeley Labs, with th
