Prof. Yaniv is the Head of the Aharon Katzir-Katchalsky Center (Weizmann Institute of Science). Her lab seeks to elucidate the cellular and molecular mechanisms governing the formation of blood and lymphatic vessels during embryonic development, organogenesis and regeneration. During her postdoctoral studies Dr. Yaniv identified and characterized the well-established lymphatic system of the zebrafish (Nat. Med., 2006), and has since continued studying the cellular origins and molecular mechanisms controlling the formation of lymphatic vessels, at her own lab. Taking advantage of the ability of zebrafish to efficiently regenerate most of their organs, the Yaniv lab investigates the involvement of lymphatic vessels in the processes of tissue inflammation, fibrosis, repair and regeneration.

Among her academic and professional awards and honors are the Levinson Prize in Biology (2017), the Wendy Chaite Leadership Award by the Lymphatic Education and Research Network (2016), ERC-StG (2013), ERC-CoG (2018), the Israel Cancer Research Foundation Career Development Award (2012), the Werner-Risau-Prize for outstanding research in vascular biology (2007), an EMBO postdoctoral fellowship (2005-2007), a Susan G. Komen Young Investigator Scholarship from the Lymphatic Research Foundation (2006), and a Golda Meir Foundation prize for excellence (2003), EVBO Lecture Award (2024) and the most recent one ERC-SyG (2024).

Karina Yaniv is invited by Diana Passaro.
