Moshe Sipper is a Professor of Computer Science at Ben-Gurion University, Israel. He received the B.A. degree from the Technion -- Israel Institute of Technology, and the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees from Tel Aviv University, all in computer science. During the years 1995-2001 he was a Senior Researcher at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne.

Dr. Sipper's current research focuses on evolutionary computation, mainly as applied to games and software development. Other interests include bio-inspired computing, artificial life, cellular computing, cellular automata, artificial self-replication, evolutionary robotics, artificial neural networks, and fuzzy logic.

Dr. Sipper has published over 130 scientific papers, and is the author of two books: Machine Nature: The Coming Age of Bio-Inspired Computing and Evolution of Parallel Cellular Machines: The Cellular Programming Approach. He is an Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation, the IEEE Transactions on Computational Intelligence and AI in Games, and Genetic Programming and Evolvable Machines, and an Editorial Board Member of Memetic Computing.

Dr. Sipper won the 1999 EPFL Latsis Prize, the 2008 BGU Toronto Prize for Academic Excellence in Research, and four HUMIE Awards (Human-Competitive Results Produced by Genetic and Evolutionary Computation).
