Miri Zilka

I’m a researcher at the Department of Physics working on high-quality experimental design, application and method development for NMR Crystallography. I'm am part of the solid-state NMR group at Warwick and an academic visitor at the Materials Modelling Laboratory at Oxford University.

I have recently passed my PhD viva-voce exam after submiting my thesis in July 2017. I have a Master degree in Physics and a Bachelor degree in Physics and Biology, both from Tel-Aviv Universtiy.
