During my MSc studies I focused on understanding the molecular level of the mutational process - inferring the pattern of spontaneous mutation in bacteria ([http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?holding=&db=pubmed&cmd=search&term=16315108 Mitchell and Graur 2005]) and developing an algorithm for the identification of functional protein residues (([http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?holding=&db=pubmed&cmd=search&term=15871045 Mayrose, Mitchell and Pupko 2005]). ~~Currently, in~~ my PhD studies, I ~~am focusing~~ on the adaptation of microorganisms to the various stimuli they encounter (e.g., stresses).

In my PhD studies, I focused on the adaptation of microorganisms to the various stimuli they encounter (e.g., stresses). This research revolves around my hypothesis of Environmental Adaptive Conditioning claiming that organisms can adapt not only to the stimuli they encounter but also to the temporal order in which they appear in the natural environment. My research revealed that two model microorganisms, ''E. coli'' and ''S. cerevisiae'', have adapted to the temporal order of stimuli in the habitats ([http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?holding=&db=pubmed&cmd=search&term=19536156 Mitchell et al, Nature 2009]).
