Besides his recent and past achievements in research, he had excellent achievements as a lecturer, expressed by a wide variety of prizes that he received for (constant) excellence in teaching (top 4%). He is also the recipient of the prestigious Yanai Prize for Academic Excellence, which is given for exceptional and significant contribution in teaching and academic education. He also was appointed to be a board member of the Scientific Reports. As an active innovative scientist and educational developer in his society, he attracted the attentions of the world's billionaires such as Bill Gates and Eric Schmidt, and he's been in collaboration with Bill and Melinda Gates foundation in the diagnostics of diseases arena. Recently, he was granted the title of Changjiang (Yangtze River) professorship, conferred by the ministry of education in China. He holds an Honorary Doctorate (Doctor of Philosophy Honoris Causa) from the University of Haifa.

and smart objects with the sense of touch, enabling them to feel their surroundings. The patented technology has very high tactile resolution and fast readout times that match, and even exceed, human fingertip touch sensation. Such patches require smaller data readout volumes, low power consumption, low operating voltage and can be fabricated using low-cost printed electronic manufacturing processes. These features have opened new technological and business opportunities, such as touch-sensitive robots and medical devices, prosthetic limbs with tactile feedback, as well as, wearable smart patches for sports and rehabilitation.

Later, his group showed that each disease has its own unique volatile molecular print and, therefore, the presence of one cancer would not screen out others – a prerequisite for developing new generation(s) of biomedical devices for personalized screening, diagnosis, and future screening of various diseases in a noninvasive, inexpensive and portable manner. These results serve as the main milestone towards formal recognition of a new field of biomarkers, so-called

He is a pioneer known for inventing the Nano Artificial Nose (NA-NOSE) for detection of disease from exhaled breath, by which he was highlighted as MIT's Innovators under 35; and which is widely used for sniffing out diseases' biomarkers in labs and industries. He has many contributions in multidisciplinary fields such as
