Dr Zernik is a Human Rights and social-protest activist. In recent years he has gained recognition for his unique application of data-mining and IT system analysis (e.g., courts, prisons, banks) in Human Rights. Such research documented the important role that large-scale fraud in such systems plays in the current financial crisis and in abuse of Human Rights by governments in California, in the US, and in Israel.

Dr Zernik's reports in the area of IT systems and Human Rights were incorporated into Universal Periodic Review reports of the United Nations Human Rights Council regarding:

* The United States (2010), with the note: "Corruption of the courts and the legal profession and discrimination by law enforcement in California";

* The State of Israel (2013) with the note: "Lack of integrity in the electronic records of the supreme court, the district courts and the detainees courts in Israel", and

* The United States (2015) with the note: "HRA NGO recommended restoring the integrity of the IT systems of the courts, under accountability to the Congress, with the goal of making such systems as transparent as possible to the public at large."

A textbook on "Machine Learning" found Dr Zernik's application of data-mining to Human Rights research among "Notable uses", and summarized it as follows:

Data mining of government records - particularly records of the justice system (i.e., courts, prisons) - enables the discovery of systemic human-rights violations in connection to generation and publication of invalid or fraudulent legal records by various government agencies.

Dr Zernik also writes on current affairs, often for OpEdNews.com. In recent years Dr Zernik has been active in the US and Israeli Social Protest movements. As part of civil disobedience activity, Dr Zernik filed a number of petitions in key courts in the US and Israel, challenging the integrity of such courts. Today Dr Zernik is a permit holder for the Occupy Tel-Aviv camp, where he has resided since 2012. With it, Dr Zernik has also become the subject of various art and documentary photographers in recent years. As holder of the copyrights for the literary works of Yitzhaq Shami (1888-1949), Dr Zernik has been instrumental in reclaiming Shami's deserved place in the history of early modern Hebrew and Palestinian literature. In a previous academic career, Dr Zernik primarily engaged in US government-funded bio-medical research, and his original PhD work pertained to cloning of the gene for alkaline phosphatase -- an enzyme, which is a key marker of bone cells.

Dr Zernik's core research pertains to e-government and its significance for Human Rights and Civil Society.
