Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAlex Liberzon is a leading experimental fluid mechanics researcher and academic leader with 15+ years of experience, currently serving as Head of the School of Mechanical Engineering at Tel Aviv University. His work focuses on turbulence, multiphase flows and heat transfer using advanced optical diagnostics such as Particle Image Velocimetry, 3D Particle Tracking Velocimetry, Background Oriented Schlieren and real-time image processing. He combines deep experimental expertise with open-science advocacy as a founding contributor to OpenPTV and a long-time lead developer of the widely used OpenPIV open-source toolset. Alex applies these methods to challenging applications ranging from biomedical flows (aneurysms, pulsatile and reverse flows) to particle aggregation and breakage in turbulent environments. A seasoned mentor and curriculum lead, he has overseen education for hundreds of undergraduates while maintaining active international collaborations and instrumentation development experience. Notably, his background spans practical engineering design and MEMS measurement innovations, bridging hands-on device work with high-resolution flow diagnostics.
