Biography

Tsachy Weissman received the B.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees, both in electrical engineering from the Technion, Israel Institute of Technology, in 1997 and 2001, respectively. During 2002-2003 he was visiting the Statistics Department at Stanford, and was with the information theory research group at Hewlett-Packard Laboratories, to which he is now a consultant. He has been on the faculty of the Electrical Engineering department at Stanford since 2003.

Tsachy's research interests span information theory and its applications, and statistical signal processing. Among his awards are the Clore Foundation scholarship, the Intel Prize, the Rothschild foundation scholarship, and the NSF CAREER. He is a co-recipient of the 2006 joint IT/COM societies paper award.
