Joining the scores of scientists who are moving to what will hopefully be a much better, safer space (and is not controlled by an evil man). See you on the other side!

A great opportunity for a postdoc in Israel, with a lucrative fellowship to become a member of the supportive Azrieli community. If youโ€™re looking for a postdoc in cancer genetics, check out our lab at: bendavidlab.com.
Attention prospective postdocs! The Azrieli International Postdoctoral Fellowship for Research at Israeli Universities in STEM, Humanities, and Social Sciences is now open for applications! You can apply today for the 2025โ€“26 cohort. The Azrieli International Postdoctoral Fellowship supports the best and brightest minds in their postdoctoral research, connecting them with world-class academics and leading researchers. The fellowship provides generous funding for eligible international applicants to conduct research in any academic discipline at accredited institutions in Israel. The Azrieli International Postdoctoral Fellowships are awarded without regard to religion, gender, age or ethnicity. The fellowship is offered for two years. Renewal for a third year will be considered favourably based on a competitive evaluation process. The fellowship is made up of a basic stipend of ILS 168,000 per academic year, with an additional ILS 20,000 granted annually for research expenses and research-related travel. You can find more details here: azrielifoundation.org/wp-conโ€ฆ And apply here: azrieli.smapply.io/prog/inteโ€ฆ The deadline for application is November 18, 2024. Good luck!

15/ Altogether, we propose that aneuploid cells increase CRAF/MEK/ERK pathway activity, which helps them overcome the elevated DNA damage. Inhibition of CRAF/MEK/ERK signaling could therefore sensitize aneuploid cells to DNA damage inducers.
