'''Abraham Z. Joffe''' ([[1909]]-[[2000]]) was Professor of [[Mycology]] and [[Mycotoxicology]] at the [[Hebrew University]], Jerusalem. Dr. Joffe's professional interests were centered primarily in toxigenic fungi associated with production of [[mycotoxin]]s ([[aflatoxin]]s, [[trichothecene]]s, and other [[toxin]]s); ecology and environmental factors favoring formation and distribution of [[Fusarium]] mycotoxins in [[cereal grain]]s, feeds and foods; and [[phytotoxic]] action of [[Fusarium]] strains, and their toxicity in animals and humans.
Dr. Joffe is the author of over 130 scientific papers, reviews and monographs. He was a member of several professional associations, a participant in numerous International Conferences and Symposia, and holds two Certificates of Merit from the [[U.S. Department of Agriculture]] and the Ministry of Health, U.S.S.R.
Dr. Joffe received his PhD in Mycology and Mycotoxicology at the Institute of Botany, U.S.S.R Academy of Science in Leningrad (1950).
