I would like to share our team's invaluable study on the non-invasive mechanical control of CSF outflow via the meningeal and superficial cervical lymphatics!
Excited to share our second CSF research breakthrough with Dr. Hokyung Jin, Dr. Seon Pyo Hong, and Prof. Gou Young Koh (@gou_koh) - now published in Nature! Link below. (1/10) https://t.co/xAnzgjX8rw

Another beautiful work from the @yaniv_lab at @WeizmannScience led by super talented student @Giuseppinalamb8 and co-supervised by @Rudra_nayan and me! So proud of Pina, who worked so hard under the very tough circumstances in Israel, to bring this paper to life! 🌟 Read it 👇!
I am happy to share the pre-print of my #PhD work now out in #biorxiv ! Thank you to @KarinaYaniv @Rudra_nayan for the menthorship and all the authors. I will be happy to have your feedback ! Check it out here 👇 https://t.co/C4Q66CQ1I0.

It seems the FDA wants the replacement of animal testing with human-related in vitro models. This means the end of physiologically relevant pre-clinical research in the US. It also implies that the first animal to be tested on a new drug will be... humans.

The tool below completely changed how we do CreERT2 genetics in mice....and saves us a lot of time and number of animals needed to take solid conclusions about a gene function. Also essential for accurate scRNAseq analysis of mutant cells.
Here is iSuRe-HadCre ! A new tool essential for effective conditional genetics ! Many Thanks to the @CNIC_CARDIO excellent technical units and our collaborators @MarionaGraupera; @PotenteLab and @makinenlab. I hope you love it as much as we do. https://t.co/MMQ0SRXvqe.
