The American Society for Microbiology will award the prize for applied microbiology to Professor Eugene Rosenberg from Tel Aviv University.
Rosenberg and his colleagues, Professors David Gutnick and Eliora Rohn, are among the pioneers in using bacteria to clean up oil contamination in tanks, pipelines and beaches. In the last six years, Rosenberg, Prof. Yossi Levia and their students have studied the phenomenon of coral bleaching by bacteria. Rosenberg and his colleagues showed that the phenomenon is caused by an infectious disease.
