Do people constantly try to kill you and your family? Is there a very realistic chance you'll be murdered in the this week? Did someone kill or raped your friends recently? If the answer is NO and you nevertheless blame those who answer YES, you reached Master Gasligher level

It’s not a short video, but one that everyone should watch. This is Rachel Goldberg, the mother of Hersh Goldberg Polin, one of the hostages held in Gaza. What a powerful speech. What a powerful woman

This is the reality that MIT President wants to hide. A letter from Israeli & Jewish MIT students: To all students at MIT, Today, Jewish and Israeli MIT students were physically prevented from attending class by a hostile group of pro-Hamas and anti-Israel MIT students that

״מסיבת העתונאים״ של נתניהו: 1. קמפיין על מלא. אני ואני ואני. הנחיתי, הוריתי, ישבתי עם הלוחמים, אמרתי, דיברתי, עשיתי, והכי חשוב: ״יש לכם על מי לסמוך״. ברור. ראינו ב-7 באוקטובר. 2. ראש ממשלה ששר הבטחון שלו לא מוכן להתייצב איתו למסיבת עתונאים משותפת. ״רק ביחד ננצח״. 3. שיקר לגבי

This makes me sick to my stomach. Absolutely horrific

Why do we get certain diseases whereas others do not exist? This new book builds a foundation for systems medicine. Starting from basic laws, it derives why hormone, immune and aging circuits are built the way the are, culminating in a periodic table of diseases.

Started my new position as a senior lecturer (Assistant Professor) at the Alexander Silberman Institute of Life Sciences and the Faculty of Medicine at Hebrew University. We develop computational frameworks to study fundamental principles of tissues in both health and disease contexts.

E. coli engineered to become stem cells that differentiate! We prevent take-over by mutant stem cells that only self renew - by linking differentiation to an essential function. A new way to engineer stable microbial communities. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

We are now using the model to identify HPA drug targets to lower cortisol, see upcoming work by Tomer Milo

Here we suggest that mood fluctuations in bipolar disorder is driven by cortisol slow (months-scale) dynamics. It was a long journey of sharpening our premise and I am glad it is finally out :)

Our theory paper on plasma cells is out. Protection following vaccination or infection depends to a large extent on the survival of plasma cells, but what determines their lifespan in the body? cell.com/immunity/fullt…

Lightning-fast adaptive immune receptor similarity search by symmetric deletion lookup arxiv.org/abs/2403.09010 In work led by Touchchai we show how an algorithmic paradigm from spell checking can accelerate TCR clustering by orders of magnitude

Happy to see this out! Hoping our predictions prove correct and help guide new treatment directions for mood disorders. Thanks Mol Syst Biol for highlighting our study!

Incredible work! Congratulations Shoval!

Out today in Science Magazine! We show that rising self-antigen levels during infection give self-reactive T cells an opportunity for enhanced TCR signalling. Regulatory T cells of matched specificity counteract this, thereby preventing autoimmunity. buff.ly/3EXaXQa
