Healthy cells in the vicinity of malignant tumors can be co-opted by cancer, helping it evade the immune system & anti-cancer treatments. A new study from Prof. Ruth Scherz-Ruth Shouval’s lab reveals the surprising lengths to which this cellular collab can go>>

In a new study published in Nature Communications, a team from Dr. Meital Oren-Suissa's lab found that male worms do not learn from experience as well as females do – and discovered the neural receptor responsible, which also exists in humans >> bit.ly/male-worm-eng

In a study published in Science Advances, researchers in Uri Alon’s group analyzed 300K pregnancies using the database of Clalit Health Services, revealing comprehensive insights into maternal physiological changes during & after pregnancy>> science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

In a study published in Cancer Cell, researchers from Samuels - Lab manipulated cancer cells into making themselves visible to the immune system, creating a new approach that gives hope to patients with previously untreatable disease>>bit.ly/cancer-expose-… yardena samuels

Researchers led by Leeat Keren developed a new AI-based method, described in Nature Biotechnology, that can exponentially increases the number of proteins imaged in tissues>> bit.ly/Multiple-Prote…

It’s #WorldParkinsonsDay. Parkinson’s affects 10M+ people worldwide. No cure. No known cause. But there’s progress. A new study Weizmann Institute and Ichilov found unique breathing changes in Parkinson’s patients—offering hope for early detection. #Parkinsons #Neuroscience

Yesterday was #WorldQuantumDay, so we look back to 2022, when @weizmannscience developed its first quantum computer, marking a key turning point in quantum research. Learn more about this milestone here: buff.ly/XJpL6Tf #QuantumResearch #WeizmannInstitute #Science

Researchers from Prof. Yosef Yarden’s lab, led by Dr. Diana Drago-Garcia, reveal how breast cancer cells enter a state of dormancy, remaining undetected for years, and why they suddenly wake up and metastasize >> bit.ly/wake-call-eng Science Signaling

“These competing forces result in the cyclones ‘bouncing’ off one another in a manner reminiscent of springs in a mechanical system,” said Yohai Kaspi, a Juno co-investigator from the Weizmann Institute of Science >>

Weizmann researchers, headed by Prof. Atan Gross, demonstrated that blocking Mitch, an energy-control protein, prevents fat accumulation in human cells >> bit.ly/Mitch-Eng

Weizmann Institute of Science researchers uncover physical laws explaining why cracks in materials break their symmetry while spreading. The findings lay the groundwork for the design of more resilient materials >> bit.ly/cracking-Eng

Whiskers don’t just feel – they hear. Weizmann Institute scientists, headed by Prof. Ilan Lampl, reveal how mice listen to the world through their whiskers >> bit.ly/Whisker-Eng Ilan Lampl

MRI Gets a Nano-Sized Upgrade: Weizmann Institute researchers achieve MRI resolution of one billionth of a meter, paving the way for the most detailed images of individual molecules ever produced >> bit.ly/MRI-Eng

Weizmann Institute researchers reveal that the nervous system can sense fat tissue and that blocking this ability protects mice from metabolic disorders >> bit.ly/Fat-Sense-Eng

Life-saving science was targeted—but our commitment is undeterred.This film captures the devastation caused by the June 15 missile strike @weizmannscience.Together, we'll rebuild & continue to advance science for the future & benefit of humanity. 🎥 buff.ly/Jfidi7M

Critical scientific research suffered a devastating blow on June 15. Decades of work, custom-built equipment & irreplaceable biological materials were lost or damaged. If you believe in the power of science to shape the future - this is your moment to act. buff.ly/JwH5cpT

Though our hearts ache, we find strength in one another. Every hand joined, every voice lifted. Together, we rebuild - stronger and more united than ever before.

A promising new blood test may soon replace bone marrow biopsies to detect early signs of MDS—a potential precursor to leukemia. Developed by Weizmann Institute researchers, it’s less invasive and already in global clinical trials. buff.ly/duC2Env #Science #Innovation

Researchers Weizmann Institute identified RNAs that accelerate nerve regeneration in mice—in peripheral nerves & brain neurons. These RNAs and their process could potentially unlock new strategies for repairing nerve damage. buff.ly/DyFu7tr
