(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Mossel has worked on the reconstruction problem on trees.He connected it to Steel’s conjecture in Phylogenetic reconstruction, partially in work with Constantinos Daskalakis and S\u00e9bastien Roch.[3][4]These result links the extremality of the Ising model on the Bethe lattice to a phase transition in the amount of data required for statistical inference on phylogenetic trees.With Joe Neeman and Allan Sly he established the role of the reconstruction problem on trees for the problem of detection in block models.[5][6]Education and career[edit]Mossel graduated from the Open University of Israel in 1992 with a B.Sc. in mathematics. In 2000, he received his Ph.D. in mathematics from the Hebrew University. Mossel held a postdoctoral position at Microsoft Research and was a Miller Research Fellow at UC Berkeley before becoming a Professor at UC Berkeley, the Weizmann Institute, the University of Pennsylvania and finally MIT.Mossel is a prolific scholar, with more than 100 coauthors and over 150 papers listed in MathSciNet as of 2022. He has advised 10 graduate students[7] who have subsequently held faculty positions at UCLA, Princeton, UC Berkeley, Caltech, the University of Wisconsin, the University of Texas, the Chinese University of Hong Kong and the University of Minnesota.Recognition[edit]2005 Sloan Fellow in Computer Science.[8]2019 Simons Investigator Award in Mathematics.
