We mapped the connections between high order sensory inputs and memory cells in the octopus brain, first-ever reconstructed octopus memory circuit: data and principles of circuit assembly today in eLife doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…, joint work w/ @FlavieBidel @HebrewU& @Harvard,RT!👇

This year is the 10th anniversary of the Google Research’s Connectomics team! In celebration, today with @MCB_Harvard we’re publishing a 1.4 petabyte human brain connectome with 57k cells and 150M synapses in @ScienceMagazine → goo.gle/4a8SpWT & sites.research.google/neural-mapping/
Our lab's revised paper published in @NatureComms Multiplexed volumetric CLEM enabled by scFvs provides insights into the cytology of cerebellar cortex nature.com/articles/s4146… Congrats to Xiaomeng's et al. @MCB_Harvard!
If you are interested in the relationship between the structure and function of neurons, see this new study from our lab that correlates electron microscopy connectomics of the #cerebellum with molecular labels, using detergent-free scFv-based immunofluorescence. #VEM @Harvard👇

5 amazing Jewish & Israeli women today @MIT in New England community rally in support of Jewish MIT students. Maya Makarovsky, Dana Rubin, Liyam Chitayat, Shai Zilberwige-Tal & Talia Khan (next tweets) show MIT President what courage, moral compass & leadership are about.
It was an honour to meet you yesterday, share our stories and concerns, openly voice our criticism of the UN and its agencies - specifically UNRWA, the WHO, and UN Women - and ask you to keep pressuring the relevant stakeholders to ensure the release of the hostages.
I was deeply moved by the searing accounts I heard from a released hostage and families of others kidnapped by Hamas. I reiterate my strong appeal for the unconditional release of all hostages. NOW.
Harvard students for “Justice” in Palestine and Harvard African resistance organization not even smart enough to hide the antisemitism

Dear @Harvard students or whoever did this: If you think defacing my brother-in-law's poster will silence our family, you're wrong; if you think defacing any of these posters will silence the families of hostages, you're wrong. Your hate and villainy only strengthen us.

Harvard, the day after Valentine. Sad day for higher education. @CNN @nyt
They might take away my reputation. They might take away my job and my career. But I’m not the kind of person who will be quiet, now that there’s a personal cost for telling the truth. Their silencing campaign just proves my point. ** Please share widely.
‘I’m Speaking Up Against Evil’: Israeli Columbia University Professor Addresses Smear Campaign "This is about having a moral compass and standing up for what’s right," @ShaiDavidai told The Algemeiner. “I won’t be silenced." By @DionJPierre algemeiner.com/2024/02/08/im-…
A Hamas leader boasting about American students spreading terrorist propaganda. *This* is why I've been calling these organizations pro-Hamas. The evidence speaks for itself. Please share widely.
“Many people ask how they can help. I believe every person can make a difference. Sharing her story. ..My daughter is alive and she is suffering. My plea is the one of any mother: Bring my baby girl back to me.” -Ayelet Levy Shachar Please share + follow 🙏 #BringThemAllHome
The videos speak for themselves: @Columbia University is either unwilling or unable to protect its Jewish and Israeli students, faculty, and staff I personally didn't feel safe going to campus today. To understand why, see below. (A thread of with alarming videos)
This little girl wants her father to come home. Sagui Dekel-Chen is a father, a civilian, and a hostage in Gaza. #BringThemHomeNow
Don’t look away. Don’t stay silent. Denying atrocities violates the victims again.
We have just filed a lawsuit against Harvard. For too long, Harvard has allowed, and in many cases, promoted, antisemitism on campus. This lawsuit gives a voice for all those who have been on the receiving end of hatred, bigotry, and discrimination bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
