🙏I’m deeply humbled to be included in Nature’s 10 for 2025. Grateful to my lab members, mentors, colleagues at Weizmann, and to my family and friends for their constant support. Our journey began with a small anomaly in the proteasome, a signal that revealed an unexpected layer

Thank you @EricTopol for highlighting our review. A collaborative effort of 24 PIs. Was not easy to coordinate us all but the final product was worth the sweat! Thank you 🙏
How do the metabolic waste products get cleared from our brain? And how does this process intersect with the brain's immune system? An exceptional review by @jonykipnis and colleagues @NeuroCellPress

Love the cover art for our review on the state of the brain clearance field. Congrats to @jonykipnis for leading this piece!
New issue: https://t.co/ImgPc6zCsX The cover highlights a Review article from 24 co-authors that discusses the principles of brain clearance, including the role of CSF influx, sleep-dependent waste removal, and connections to the immune system. Art by Nadia Alzoubi.

Nice article but who are the mysterious collaborators from @WashU @washumedicine that cannot be named? 🧐 (this is us 😂) And also, we need better science journalism especially when it comes out in @ScienceMagazine! So many inaccuracies in this article could have been avoided...
