Ofer Lahav {{post-nominals|country=GBR|FRAS|FInstP}} is Perren Chair of Astronomy at University College London (UCL).

His research area is observational Cosmology.

He served as the Head of Astrophysics (UCL) 2004-2011,

as Vice-Dean (Research) of UCL's Faculty of Mathematical and Physical Sciences 2011-2015,

and as Vice-President of the Royal Astronomical Society 2010-2012. Lahav co-chairs the Science Committee of the international Dark Energy Survey, and he holds a European Research Council (ERC) Advanced Grant on "Testing the Dark Energy Paradigm" (TESTDE programme).[2]

Education

Lahav studied Physics at Tel-Aviv University (BSc, 1980), Physics at Ben-Gurion University (MSc, 1985) and earned his Ph.D. (1988) in Astronomy[3] from the University of Cambridge, where he was later a Member of Staff at the Institute of Astronomy (1990-2003) and a Fellow of St Catharine's College, Cambridge.

Research

Lahav's research is focused on cosmological probes of Dark Matter and Dark Energy,

in particular large galaxy surveys.[4]

[5] {{As of|2016}} Lahav has co-authored over 200{{fact|date=November 2015}} research articles in peer reviewed scientific journals and he is a Thomson ISI highly cited author.[6] His doctoral students include Chris Lintott.[1]
