Weizmann Institute of Science

Israeli and American scientists have uncovered a never-before-seen type of supernova, shedding light on how stars produce and expel heavy elements like silicon and sulfur during their violent deaths.

Weizmann Institute of Science, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and Technion-Israel Institute of Technology were all ranked among the top 100 universities in the world.

To train the model, the scientists let it study the medical records of each participant and then ask it to make minor predictions.

“Each species has its own rhythm, its own average speed and turning frequency,” said Stevens. “And the greater the difference in these movement traits, the clearer the spatial separation became.”

When Iranian ballistic missiles struck the heart of the Weizmann Institute, the message was loud and clear: not even peaceful scientific research is safe.

Last week, a ballistic missile assault from Iran severely damaged the Weizmann Institute, and life-saving scientific research was lost with no return.

One of the labs destroyed by Iran was of a cancer researcher in the Faculty of Biology, whose lab team consisted of 12 scientists.

Weizmann scientists uncover why our immune system lets us eat without harm, how it tolerates food—and why it sometimes fails.

“It’s an incredibly moving and humbling experience to be part of such a distinguished group of individuals," Prof Yonina Eldar said.

Movers and shakers in Israeli society.
