Will NASA choose Weizmann Institute craft to launch toward the distant planet in 2026 and look for signs of life on its largest moon?

Sniffing ourselves helps us make sure we don’t smell bad and gives us a sense of self, Weizmann Institute study shows.

Israeli-led study reveals harmful immune cells invade the lungs of patients severely affected by Covid-19, crowding out helpful immune cells.

Israeli mathematicians suggest a staggered approach to reenter public places and workplaces without causing a new outbreak.

The sniff response not only predicted who would regain consciousness, it also predicted with high accuracy who would survive for at least three years.

Method may enable the authorities to focus efforts on areas where an outbreak is anticipated and relieve measures taken in others.

‘These molecules may help develop drugs against inflammation and against Huntington’s disease,’ says Weizmann Institute researcher.

The small molecule reduces damaging inflammation and improves heart function in mouse models of heart attack, say Israeli scientists.

Scientists’ new cultured bacteria may lead to net-zero fuels, alternative food production and other green technologies to conquer climate change.

Israeli-German study on mice shows animal research may need to consider the connection between genes, behavior and personality.

Scientists in Israel and Germany show that an experimental vaccine offers long-term protection against the deadly disease.

‘Israel has become a major source of innovation in the understanding and treatment of cancer,’ says director of Israel Cancer Research Fund.

An Israeli algorithm that predicts the immune response to a pathogen could lead to early diagnosis for such diseases as tuberculosis.

Weizmann Institute of Science and the Israel Space Agency of the Ministry of Science and Technology are heading this international project.
