We also built an Shinyapp interface that allows everyone to access our single cell and spatial datasets easily: https://t.co/zLUncXUfxZ We envision our datasets will serve as a resource will provide insights for the cardiac and regeneration/fibrosis fields in the future!

This massive project was led by my excellent postdoc @ChanAndyson. This work would not have been possible without all our fantastic collaborators, in particular the groups of Peter Kohl and Franziska Schneider-Warme who provided essential experimental in vivo methods.

New preprint from the lab! Using multiplexed spatial analysis and single-cell multiomics, we resolved the portal liver immune niche and identified crosstalk between cholangiocytes, dendritic cells and gdT cells controlling fibrosis in a cholangitis model. https://t.co/bclOnqiuKa

This is effectively a cure for type 1 diabetes. Autologous, (chemically) reprogrammed iPSCs were engineered from a patient's fat cells and injected back into her stomach. After ~2.5 months, she no longer needed insulin and now enjoys ice cream + candy like a normal person.

BREAKING: MIT just completed the first brain scan study of ChatGPT users & the results are terrifying. Turns out, AI isn't making us more productive. It's making us cognitively bankrupt. Here's what 4 months of data revealed: (hint: we've been measuring productivity all wrong)

My lab at @WeizmannScience 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

Random question: In human brain, consciousness emerges from the neuron’s collective activity, despite no single neuron is conscious. Similarly, society comes from many individuals working together. Could collective consciousness also emerge at the societal level, as in the brain?
