Ariel Novoplansky (Hebrew: אריאל נובופלנסקי) is an Israeli biologist and a Professor of Evolutionary Ecology at the Mitrani Department of Desert Ecology, the Swiss Institute for Dryland Environmental & Energy Research, Blaustein Institutes for Desert Research, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. He is best known for his study of plant interactions, environmental perception, developmental plasticity, decision making, communication and learning.

Biography[edit]

Ariel Novoplansky was born and raised in Israel. His father, Zvi Novoplansky (born 1923 Dieveniškės, now Lithuania, died Jerusalem, Israel 2017), was the sole holocaust survivor in his family, a partisan[1][2][3], IDF solider and officer[4] and a land surveyor. His mother Sarah (née Shmuelevich) (born 1928 Haifa, Palestine, died 2021, Jerusalem), was a Hagana member[5] and a life-long educator.

Novoplansky graduated the Hebrew University of Jerusalem where he studied biology (BSc 1981, MSc 1984) and obtained a PhD (1990) under the advisement of Tsvi Sachs[6] and Dan Cohen[7]. He then spent a post-doctorate period at University of Michigan at the lab of Deborah Goldberg, and in 1993 joined the faculty of Ben-Gurion University.

Career[edit]

The scientific contributions of Ariel Novoplansky are related to the ways plants execute developmental decisions based on information they perceive and integrate from their abiotic environment and neighbors. Examples for his studies include:

  • Competitive strategies and behavior[8][9]
  • Competitive self/nonself discrimination[10][11]
  • Perception of and responses to anticipated growth conditions[12][13]
  • Levels and hierarchies of phenotypic plasticity[9][14]
  • Interplant communication of stress and flowering cues[15][16]
  • Plant learning[17]

Novoplansky is the Director of the Swiss Institute of for Dryland Energy and Environmental Research, Blaustein Institutes for Desert Research, BGU. He is the initiator and organizer of Camp Evolution and serves as an editor for the scientific journals Environmental Science & Ecotechnology (Elsevier), PLoS ONE (PLOS), Ecological Research (Wiley) and Plant Signaling & Behavior (Taylor and Francis).

Personal life[edit]

Ariel Novoplansky is married to Nurit (née Zedek) Novoplansky. They live in Midreshet Ben-Gurion and have three daughters – Miriam Lupu-Novoplansky (a visual-theatre artist), Ofra Zur-Novoplansky (a biologist), and Tamar Novoplansky.

Novoplansky is an accomplished photographer, with a passion for exploring the beauty of people, nature and the abstract.
