Thrilled to share our latest research, published in @NatureComms! We've developed a quantitative MRI approach for assessing the state of brain iron homeostasis in vivo, based on the linear dependency of R1 on R2*. https://t.co/nIWU8jamxN @AvivMezer @NaomiHabib2 @ELSCbrain

What governs the temporal variability of cognition? Grateful to see our work now published in @NatureHumBehav with @reznikdan @RaBhui, @hannahillman and @gershbrain. Read all about it: https://t.co/14AkBth10t

A month ago, at this hour, I had to tell my two daughters - 3.5 years old and 20 months old - that they must remain completely silent. No word, no cry.
It was 7AM, they had just woken up in a dark room with no electricity or food, and five people were shouting outside the window.

"This is a moment that can decide if we will be able to exist or not" @LeviYonit stresses exactly the situation that Israel is facing right now

Aviv is 2.5 years old and she is a hostage. Use your voice!
Act to bring the hostages home

These are not freedom fighters. You don't fight for human rights by burning babies alive and behading kids. These are terrorists and they have also taken their own people hostage expecting an Israeli respone. There are no political neuanses here. Hamas is ISIS.

I try to spare my international friends the gruesome details of what’s going on here. But I recently talked to a friend who apparently had no idea that the casualties were civilians, abducted from their homes and taken to Gaza. This is just one story of dozens. Think about them.

Can't sleep, and probably won't. Keep picturing the horrible images of today. The young woman screaming while taken on a motorbike by two men. The young boy - maybe 3 years old - alone in captivity being hit with a stick and ridiculed for being "a dirty Jew". The elderly woman >

These results on brain tumors, together with the wide implications for the research and diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases, emphasize the strength of our approach, which monitors the state of iron homeostasis in living brains.

And there’s another clinical perspective. The r1-r2* relaxivity, which is highly sensitive to the impaired iron homeostasis in tumor tissue, greatly enhanced the contrast between pathological tissue and normal-appearing tissue without the need for a contrast agent injection.

Very excited to share new work with @AvivMezer in @ScienceMagazine! We show that glial cells in histological slices reveal local fiber orientations in the white matter. Article: https://t.co/HbxyoaWQjY. Code: https://t.co/1DEBDMCMPc.

3/3 Now the cycle begins: when strong students leave, we have to recruit new ones. So please do contact me if you are interested (Ph.D. / Postdoc).
