It will be very bad if this will happen. Far less research on females in many topics that will eventually harm 50% of the population www.thetransmitter.org/policy/exclu...

Thankful for the @ERC_Research for their continuous support in our research with an ERC PoC. We plan to generate testis organoids from pre-pubertal boys testis biopsies, taken prior to chemotherapy.

How to test the functional impact of non-coding variants in vivo? We developed a new method called dual-enSERT, which can quantitatively compare the effects of enhancer variants in live mouse embryos in under two weeks. www.nature.com/articles/s41... 1/n

The Gonen Lab lighting the fifth Chanukah candle together ❤️

Makhtesh Ramon in the Negev Desert. Beautiful and peaceful place. Apparently 80/96 of the chemical elements in the periodic table can be found here!!!

It was great to gather around today all the PIs at the Life Sciences Faculty @Bar_ilan, light the second Candle of Hanukkah, have our dean Cyrille Cohen playing, and giving a talk about my lab science in my home base. Superb Faculty and such a great feeling of home

Scared to share this after 10 freaking years of waiting, but here we go: We found that temperature *perception* can change the biology of the next generations, even when “it’s just in the parents' head”. Read how C. elegans neurons control epigenetic inheritance! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Boyond excited to announce that @MeshiRidnik is the first PhD student to graduate from my lab. Meshi had a superb PhD that she presented amazingly well today in her PhD seminar. I could not be more proud of the first newborn PhD (XX) of the GONEN LAB 🥳🥳. Such an amotional moment!

Come and join me at the Life Sciences Faculty @Bar_ilan!! Tenure track PI positions available. Amazing faculty, people, atmosphere and students! Could not be happier with my decision at the time 💪 www.scienceabroad.org.il/job/academy-...
