My lab was totally destroyed tonight by an Iranian missile. Nobody was hurt. Flies, plasmids, cells, equipment - all gone. Heart breaking. If during the course of the past 16 years, you have received something from my lab - please keep them safe.

My lab at Weizmann Institute was completely demolished by the Iranian missile a few days ago. This is hard and sad as nothing was left to save. We study heart regeneration and regenerative medicine. As such, we will regenerate, regrow and rebuild. The one thing that wasn't gone is

On leadership & support- meet the amazing first responder team (partial) who voluntarily worked during first 12h, in darkness, smoke, and ashes, to save a building's precious frozen biological samples (most saved). No words to describe the courage and dedication of these people.

A preprint from Nataliya Kosmyna, Ph.D and coworkers reports EEG evidence that writing using LLMs reduces neural connectivity and cognitive engagement compared to unaided writing or using standard search engines. Persistent use of LLMs weakened cognitive activation and impaired memory

Delighted to bring gene circuits into a wide array of primary cells where they can be used for safe, effective gene therapies. 🧵 (1/n) Tremendous work by lead author Kasey Love to dig into the details of these systems and figure out how to get these to work well! Original

This is what’s left of my lab😞. Finally heading back home. I need to stand, with my two legs, in front of the rubble that was just a few days - my thriving lab, a home for excellent Israeli Jews and arab, as well as foreigners students. This will be my first step of acceptance.

Our new paper is out in Science. We identified a subgroup of cholinergic neurons that mediate sensory modality-specific attention. They change their funcitonal properties within secs of behavioral context change. Congrats to Bin and the team! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

This is 💯 result of NIH and private (Harvard Stem Cell Institute & others) funded basic biology that led to human IPSC derived Pancreatic Beta Cells in Doug Melton’s lab at Harvard over 10 years. Restore NIH budget in BBB. NIH Jay Bhattacharya, MD, PhD

Gene editing pioneer David R. Liu discusses baby K.J. Muldoon, the first person treated with a customized gene editing therapy, what made K.J.'s treatment possible, and how on-demand treatments for rare genetic diseases could one day become routine. broad.io/DLQA

It took me more than 10 days before I could enter Ullman and climb to the burnt lab. Heartbreaking. Thankful to Weizmann Institute for helping us get up on our feet and look forward.

This year’s Western States is gonna be something. See below: Doing the impossible. And then we have the Clash of titans: The GOAT Killian Jornet vs. The Coach who knows speed, David Roche and many others. With temps in the 100s…
