Our latest preprint is out! 🚨We discovered that intestinal stem cells actively fight bacterial infections. Learn more about it in our new study by @SachaLEBON in collaboration with @matanhofree

How we’re rebuilding the Weizmann Institute — and our hopes for a better future

Proud to see this study from our @bitonslab in collaboration with @LabSagi now on @biorxivpreprint! Brilliant work by the team, congrats!

Out now in @Science! We and the @KuchrooLab described responses of enteric neurons to inflammatory cues during infection, showing that primary sensory neurons detect type 2 cytokines, balance neuropeptides, and influence site-specific immunity. https://t.co/jel4IWa6K9

האוניברסיטה העברית גאה לברך את פרופ' ינון בן-נריה מהפקולטה לרפואה על זכייתו בפרס ישראל בתחום חקר הרפואה, על פועלו בחקר מחלת הסרטן. ועדת הפרס ציינה בנימוקיה כי "פרופ' בן-נריה הוא חוקר פורץ דרך בתחום חקר מחלת הסרטן, שגילה מנגנונים להתפתחות הסרטן שהובילו ועדיין מובילים ליצירת תרופות

🙌Excited to share that our PI Vijay Kuchroo will be awarded the 2025 AAI-Thermo Fisher Meritorious Career Award, for outstanding research contributions to immunology. Vijay will be presented the award & giving a lecture in Honolulu at the annual @ImmunologyAAI meeting in May.

1/ Keen to share the story of my postdoc research in @TheXavierLab! We built a massive resource characterizing the spatial landscape of the gut, and yes, we dug deep into the biology too. If you’ve got a minute, let me walk you through the story. 🧵👇 https://t.co/sKL3yyCCKZ

Thrilled to share our paper now out @Nature delineating #plasticity during #CRC #metastasis, a fantastic collaboration led by @andrewrmoorman @elliebenitez11, and @f_cambuli from the @KarunaGaneshLab and @dana_per lab! https://t.co/NYQRHfq3gz https://t.co/Z4GFwqL8G2. A 🧵

This paper exemplifies the power of @MSKCancerCenter and why I love working here. Access to unique tumor samples, more importantly brilliant physician scientists and most important driven and talented trainees to make it all happen. Kudus to @andrewrmoorman and @elliebenitez11

Preprint alert! A spatial atlas of human gastro-intestinal acute GVHD reveals epithelial and immune dynamics underlying disease pathophysiology https://t.co/qtyqlepJod. We examined how immune cells are organized in the gut and what happens to them in GVHD. TL;DR Timing is key!

Exciting collab with @Honda1Kenya’s lab, out today in @Nature: A set of microbial strains taken from a human faecal donor can decolonize multidrug-resistant Enterobacteriaceae in the gut, including species associated with #IBD. (1/3)

Highly relevant work from @TheXavierLab and @Honda1Kenya lab showing a defined bacterial consortium with the capacity to decolonize multidrug-resistant pathogens. Important implications for treating #IBD with defined FMT protocols Exciting times!

🚨 Thrilled to share my first first-author preprint on bioRxiv! 🚨 https://t.co/IRy8hKnviy 💡 Major breakthrough: Intestinal stem cells fight bacterial infection by differentiation into Paneth cells through inflammasome activation! 🦠⚔️ 1/

A Cellular Atlas of Gut Inflammation

Excited to share the Smillie Lab's first paper! We discovered distinct lineages of the gut microbiota that are exquisitely adapted to inflammatory disease. This was a monumental effort led by Adarsh Kumbhari @mgh_ri @harvardmed @broadinstitute More: https://t.co/rmfnCdyORP

i am so excited about our open source inexpensive, sub-cellular capture, do-it-yourself Open-ST that transforms tissues into virtual tissue blocks in 3D - IDing pathways & gene programs driving phenotypes. a huge congratz to the team!

Together with @IdoAmitLab we’re very excited to introduce BiCE (Bispecific DC-T Cell Engager)- a new platform to engineer immune cell communication for #cancer #immunotherapy. Led by the amazing @yuval_shap @orenbarboy, now out @CellCellPress: https://t.co/COVWAN7Tbf (1/11)

100 days 💔 #BringThemHomeNow

Congratulations to Dr. @roi1avraham of the Immunology and Regenerative Biology Department upon being elected an Outstanding Early Career Investigator by the American Society for Microbiology.

If you’re interested in host-microbiota interactions but like your microbes with membrane bound organelles then our paper on symbiotic protists is for you @CellCellPress . Congrats @GerrickElias and a huge thank you to all our collaborators!
