Join us today to hear me talk about our latest publication discussing embryonic muscle and fibroblast development!
Happy New Year! 🎉 Myogenesis 2025 is back! Join us virtually on Jan 27th, 2–3 PM for an inspiring talk by Lavi Coren (Technion, Israel). Topic: “Fibroblast diversification is an embryonic process dependent on muscle contraction.” Don’t miss it🔖 #ScienceTwitter @LaviCoren

I thrilled to share that my first 1st author has been published in @CellReports sciencedirect.com/science/ar… This manuscript covers how #fibroblasts, diversify in muscles into distinct subpopulation during embryonic #development.

These subpopulations, reside in distinct niches, express unique transcriptome, and exert opposing effect on myogenesis. Remarkably, we found this process to fail in paralyzed muscles.

I want to express my deep gratitude to my PI Peleg Hasson, my lab mates, and to all who have contributed in their own way to the effort that went into this work. And now, onward to the next project! #myotwitter

#NewPrePrintAlert 🚨 Super excited to share our new preprint and my first paper! Fibroblast are connective tissue cells taking part in virtually all processes from embryonic development to adulthood in both health and disease.

In this ms, we provide novel description of #fibroblasts embryonic diversification in skeletal muscles. We find they segregate largely into two spatially and functionally distinct subpopulations.

Finally, we demonstrate this process to be dependent on embryonic muscle contraction! Thanks to all who supported this project so far! #MyoTwitter #DevelopmentalBiology

Hey guys I need your help. Tomorrow there is an antisemitic and illegal rally in @Columbia university, planned by SJP & JVP. Please send an email (2 clicks) and call for banning pro-Hamas organizations from campus 👉 drove.com/.2ITQ #JewsFightBack And follow @GalWinrebe for further retaliations

Replying to @BeckettUnite
What about the slaughter and mass rape in Israel. You didn't even bother to write a word the October 7th events. Going through your tweets in the past 3 weeks, it's obvious you're an antisemite that shows only part of the story. Glad to know you're an avid supporter of mass raping, kidnapping and slaughter. The UK would have react 10 times harsher than Israel. Such a hypocrite ISIS supporter.

Imagine the worst things possible that can be done to humans. Hamas did all of that and more to Israeli civilians. Babies beheaded. People burned alive in their homes. Women raped and dragged through the streets. Don’t look away.

Please be aware - Hamas has stressed its goal is to kill all Israelis and destroy Israel in the name of Islamic Jihad. These massacres, taking women and children hostage, cannot be justified by the humanitarian conditions in Gaza. These are not the desperate acts of desperate individuals. This is a long-planned attack carried out by an organization hell-bent on destroying Israel. Their main target for years is killing Israelis and the total destruction of the state of Israel. This is a radical Islamic ISIS-like organization. #HamasisISIS The humanitarian crisis in Gaza is caused mainly by Hamas, and its victims are Palestinians living in Gaza. One must understand - there is no room for peace talks with an ISIS-like terror organization that doesn't recognize your existence and acts in the name of Jihad. Please Share. #HamasisISIS #Israel #Hamas #Gaza #HamasMassacre

The spiny mouse proves yet again why it is one of the coolest model organisms today
Spiny mice discovered with #armour-plated tails. Outside of armadillos, this is the only other example of bony plates in a modern mammal. Read more in @iScience_CP: cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S… @UFGenetics Malcolm Maden

#NewPaperAlert How do you bridge a gap between a classic in-vitro model and the "real life" state? Exciting work by @Shay_Melamed from my lab in a joint project with @Haguy_Wolfenson , reporting the role of Lysyl Oxidases in initiating fibronectin fibrillogenesis #matrixbiology

Great work and a well-rounded paper on the role of asymmetric muscle signaling and development in Adolescent Idiopathic #Scoliosis. #myotwitter
New research from Shanghai Jiao Tong University reveals that the asymmetric inactivation of Estrogen Receptor 1 signaling is one of the causes of Adolescent Idiopathic #Scoliosis. go.nature.com/41GI5SO

Super excited to report our findings on the role of the biophysical property of the limbal niche in corneal homeostasis and plasticity. Big thanks to my wonderful mentors @ruby_shalom and @Haguy_Wolfenson and to my dear friends and collaborators.nature.com/articles/s41418-0… @cddpress
