Some drugs increase the #mutation rate of their target #pathogen, raising the concerns they might increase the pathogen’s rate of adaptation. This #PLOSBiology Perspective proposes a four-step process to evaluate the evolutionary safety of new treatments.

Our new paper in @MolBioEvol suggests that #aneuploidy can be an *evolutionary diversion* on the path to adaptation rather than a stepping stone.

@AsafLevyHUJI פרופ׳ צחי פלפל - עתיד האבולוציה: על הנדסה מבוססת אבולוציה, ותפקיד המחשב כמחולל האבולוציה
עברית

עוד מופע של רה״מ לא כשיר שעל פי כל מדד איבד מזמן את אמון הציבור וממשיך לברוח מאחריות המחדל הגדול ביותר לעם היהודי מאז השואה.
לאחר שהרס את הביטחון, הכלכלה ומדיניות החוץ, ההתפכחות וקולות לבחירות בהקדם, שנטועים עמוק במרבית החברה הישראלית, כבר מגיעים מתוך ממשלתו וחברי מפלגתו של נתניהו. ישראל צריכה שינוי.
בחירות זה צו השעה.

As they have done for the past decade, Prof. Avraham Levy and Naomi Avivi-Ragolsky of Weizmann’s Plant and Environmental Sciences Department planned to conduct a field experiment with wheat this year at the Gilat experimental station in the south. But on October 7, that entire region became a war zone in the wake of the Hamas attack on Israel.
Undeterred and perhaps even motivated by the harsh circumstances, Levy and Dr. David Bonfil from the Gilat station decided to conduct the experiment at Gilat as planned, as a symbol of renewal and resilience in the face of adversity. In November, when fighting in Gaza was still in full swing, the researchers proceeded with the wheat sowing.
One of the varieties sown in Gilat this year is also being documented in the "Wheat Grows Again" project, which live streams wheat growing in the Institute's greenhouse to raise international awareness about the hostage crisis. The growth of wheat, which was sown by Prof. Levy himself, illustrates the passing of time, and the live stream also displays the names of the hostages, as well as a clock that has already counted a hundred days since their kidnapping.
