Nadav Salzman, 17, Odyssey
Hello, I am Nadav Salzman, 17 years old, from Ramat Hasharon.
I am in the twelfth grade and study in the "Odyssey" program at Tel Aviv University in the cyber track. I like to sing, play the guitar, cook and learn new things. In the "Odyssey" program of the Ministry of Education and the Future Scientists Center, I was given the opportunity to study advanced courses in mathematics and computer science with children who love these fields and are looking for a challenge just like me. During the years I've been in the program I've met a lot of new friends and learned a lot about myself, especially about my ability to face new challenges. The study environment is very different from the study environment at school. We study at an academic level, receive personal attention from the best lecturers at the academic institution and meet new friends. It is indeed challenging, but really fun. So what are you waiting for? Join us, the scientists of the future. Registration is in progress!

Hi, I'm Neta Or Pietro, 16 years old from the Jordan Valley and I study in the "Alpha" program at Ariel University of the Ministry of Education and the Center for Future Scientists.
I shoot, edit, read and write.
I love chemistry, physics, biology and every other scientific field, and that's why I went to the screenings for the program and made a dream come true.
The "Alpha" program is a program of research in the fields of science and it helps us learn, get to know and explore these fascinating fields, but it also goes far beyond.
I got to know a group of female students my age with common interests.
Today we get to experience beyond the laboratory and the university, travel all over the country, meet people from all corners of academia, research and Israeli society and participate in social activities.
The program emphasizes the social field as much as the academic field and this is what makes it an unforgettable experience.
