Orly Alter (born April 12, 1964) is an Israeli-American physicist and research associate professor in the field of bioengineering and human genetics. She has published several papers about her research in genomic signal processing and bladder and brain cancers. She is a professor at the University of Utah[1].

Early life and education[edit]

Alter was born on April 12, 1964, in Tel Aviv, Israel. As is custom in Israel, she partook in the country’s mandatory military service, acting as an Operations Researcher at the Israeli Air Force Headquarters from 1982 until 1983, and finishing up her service working as a Base Defense Officer in the Israeli Air Force from 1983 until 1985 when she was honorably discharged, leaving with the rank of First Lieutenant.[1]

She began attending school at Tel Aviv University in Israel and graduated in October 1989 magna cum laude with her Bachelors of Science in Physics. After receiving her undergrad, she began pursuing her Ph.D. in applied physics at the Stanford University in California, USA. She completed her Ph.D. with a thesis on “Quantum Measurement of a Single System,"[2] under the mentorship of Yoshihisa Yamamoto in January of 1999 and then moved onto a postdoctoral fellowship working with genetics, remaining at Stanford. She completed this fellowship in January of 2004.[1]

Career and research[edit]

Alter is currently working at the University of Utah [1]. She has one published book named Genomic Signal Processing: Discovery of Principles of Nature from Matrix and Tensor Modeling of Large-Scale Molecular Biological Data.[3] She has contributed to a lot of research about genetics and physics. Alter has eighteen journal papers published along with nine technical reports. She also holds six patents in both the US and internationally. [1]
