Prof. Ines Zucker hold a BSc degree in Mechanical Engineering, MSc degree in Materials and Nanotechnologies Engineering, and PhD in Materials Science and Engineering with expertise in Environmental Engineering, all from Tel-Aviv University (TAU). Alongside these diverse educational experiences, Ines completed postdoctoral training at Yale University in the field of environmental applications and implications of nanotechnology.

​

In her faculty appointment, Ines now serves as a jointly-appointed associate professor in the School of Mechanical Engineering and Porter School of Environmental Studies. Using a wide skill-set combining material synthesis and structure-property characterization with a world-class exposure to analytical chemistry and water treatment tools, the Zucker Lab focuses on advanced materials and novel approaches for environmental applications – as well as implications of nano-scaled materials on the environment. In 2020, Dr. Zucker was recognized with the Green Talent Award from the Federal Ministry of Education and Research in Germany.

 

Outside of the lab, Ines enjoys raising her 3 kids, Ari, Jonathan, and Alona. She also relishes activities such as cooking, strength training, and jogging in the vibrant city of Tel-Aviv.
