ההתקבצות של נוגה (הכי בהיר) וצדק (משמאלו) יחד עם מבנה המאיץ של מכון ויצמן למדע. לתמונה נדחפו גם התאומים קאסטור ופולוקס (הכוכבים החוורים מימין), וחלק מהמסדרון של המחלקה לאסטרופיסיקה. המשרד שלי לפני אחרון משמאל. אם פספסתם היום, חפשו במערב את נוגה וצדק גם מחר 😊⭐️✨

This issue features a paper by an int’l team led by Weizmann’s Prof. @samuels_yardena, examining the extensive heterogeneity between cells within a tumor, how these internal differences affect the ability of the immune system to recognize cancer - and why they also limit the success of current cancer therapies
New issue alert👉cell.com/cell/current On the cover: For the Hallmarks of Cancer's 25th anniversary, the cover illustrates its enduring impact across the cancer research community, uniting scientists, clinicians, patients, and educators to drive progress.
