Yuval Nov earned his B.Sc.from the Technion (1999), and then an M.Sc. (2002) and a Ph.D. (2004), both from Stanford University.  He taught at New York University from 2004 to 2006, and then joined the faculty of the Department of Statistics at the University of Haifa.  His research has been supported by the Israel Science Foundation (ISF) and the Fund for Collaborative Research between the Technion and the University of Haifa.
