This is the most Israeli thing I’ve seen. Taken at the Weizmann Institute of Science, following the Iranian attack.
Mark your calendar: the next Egmond DNA repair meeting will take place in 2026 from April 19 - 24! You can pre-register to receive announcement here: forms.lumc.nl/lumc2/Egmond Registration will open by June 2025
האקדמיה הצעירה מזמינה אתכם, דוקטורנטים דוקטורנטיות ישראליים מכל תחומי הדעת לקראת סוף הדוקטורט, להצטרף למפגש שמטרתו להציג את ההזדמנויות והאתגרים הכרוכים בהשתלמות בתר-דוקטורט בחוץ לארץ, עם דגש מיוחד על השלכות המלחמה והמצב הגאו-פוליטי הנוכחי בעולם. בלב המפגש יהיה שיחה בזום עם…
Things you do when you don't have a time machine. Congrats @lirancarmel and @meshorer1
Our latest paper is out in @NatureEcoEvo: Inferring DNA methylation in non-skeletal tissues of ancient specimens. A major challenge in studying DNA methylation in ancient samples is that it is tissue-specific. 1/11
Thrilled to share our latest article in Trends in Genetics! Ever wondered why RNA processing factors are recruited to DNA DSBs? We propose two explanations that shed novel insights into the functional significance of RNA processing factors at DSB sites. eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%…
🚨 Please RT Thrilled to share our new study in turquoise killifish, revealing that mutating cGAS-STING can rescue key defects in DNA damage repair syndromes! Findings offer a potential therapeutic target, with possible implications for aging. Read here: t.ly/agJFD
Headed home after an absolutely fantastic #Grcmutagenesis meeting.


Our paper is now official out, see the new and improved version at: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Congratulation to the wonderful @EdenEngal_, @MaayanSalton and team.
Happy to report our latest results on the role of SMCHD1 in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). A very close and fun collaboration with @MaayanSalton, this work was led by our amazing joint MD/PhD student @EdenEngal_ 1/2 biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…
Our paper is now officially out: nature.com/articles/s4146… A great collaboration with @JeffreyAFarrell, and a major effort by our own @fishman_lior
How do pluripotent cells assume specialized molecular identities within an embryo? Check out the lab’s first preprint! A great collaboration with @JeffreyAFarrell and a major effort by our own Lior Fishman (1/12) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Making nucleosome figures for a grant on a Saturday morning. Family member #1: "Hey look, it's a macaroon!", #2: "No it's a menthos!" Back to the drawing board.
Nice to see this out. Congrats to @HibaHassanain @danatse_, @tamarhaco and the rest of the (twitterless) team! Based on the method first developed by @BenVanHouten2 and Joel Meyer: An easy-to-implement DNA damage detection method we hope will be useful sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
