single cell network Israel (scIL)

Living and breathing single-cells 🦠 but sometimes feel a bit single 👩‍💻? Want to know the faces behind the papers? 📃 Looking for people to speak about the recent controversial tweet 🐘🎨? Can’t wait to share your success (and failures) in reproducing results ? (1/4)

Check out this work from our network —uncovering network motifs in single-cell spatial data! 🫟 @zamir_amos @leeat_keren @AssafZaritsky

Interested in single cell genomics but need help getting started? Check out my lab's Single Cell Genomics Day on April 25. Talks will feature recent exciting computational and experimental advances and will be live-streamed at satijalab.org/scgd. Please RT/spread the word!

🧬GWAS is fundamental in drug discovery, linking disease to genetic variants. However, studying rare and uncommon diseases with GWAS is hard due to the huge sample sizes required. How can we use AI to help GWAS with small cohorts? In a multi-year collaboration @GSK @StanfordAILab @StanfordMed @SCSatCMU, we are thrilled to share Knowledge Graph GWAS (KGWAS), the largest AI model that integrates >10 millions of multi-modal and multi-scale functional genomics data to improve GWAS power by 100% while discovering novel disease-critical variants, genes, cells, and networks! A huge shoutout to our stellar team of AI, statistics, and human genetics scientists: @tkyzeng Soner Koc, Alexandra Pettet @zhou_jingtian @MikaSarkinJain Dongbo @_camiloruiz @ren_hongyu @laurencejmshowe Tom Richardson, Adrián Cortés, Katie Aiello, Kim Branson, @apfenning @jengreitz @martinjzhang @jure Paper: medrxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/15🧵

Congratulations @AssafZaritsky !

New study by Dr. @Naomi_habib and @GreenGilad from #HebrewU, in collab with researchers from @Columbia and @Harvard, uncovers two distinct cellular paths in brain aging—one leading to Alzheimer’s and the other to healthy aging—paving the way for personalized treatments.

Due to the escalating situation, limiting participation of many in the community, we decided to postpone the in-person event.💔 We will have a zoom on Thursday (26/9) 10-11AM, as an intro to community, w/ talk by @SItzkovitz, and challenges overview by @naomi_habib & @mor_nitzan

We are excited to share the agenda for our 1st annual event, 26/9 @ELSCbrain🪅 w/ spotlights 🔦@YOrenLab, Amos Tanay, @yizhaklab, @atownfool & @SItzkovitz. A field overview by @mor_nitzan & @naomi_habib, and sc-ience sessions led by @bitonm, Oren Ram, @YosefLab & @OCohenlab

Thrilled our work is published in @Nature! Analyzing over 1.6M snRNA-seq from 437 brains we uncovered cellular trajectories diverging aging and Alzheimer's disease defined by distinct cell communities. Huge thanks to @naomi_habib and all our collaborators. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Join us for the 1st Annual Single Cell Network Israel Meeting, Sep. 26 at @HebrewU focused on getting to know each other better! 💘 The core of the meeting will feature "Let’s talk sc-ience!" parallel sessions. 🗨️ Registration: forms.gle/sRgzQXRXRaxrov…

In a new paper, we show how deep nets training dynamics can be used to refine our understanding (or annotations) of single-cell/spatial data and reveal facets of multicellular organization & function. Wonderful collaboration w @BarakRaveh, led by @JonathanKarin3 and Reshef Mintz.

Come work with us here in Israel

Great Zman for some good news 🎉

This week, I was excited to showcase @CompugenLtd 's advancements in #DataScience and #MachineLearning as a featured presentation in the Y-DATA School of Data Science 'Data-Driven Products' lecture series.

We all feel you! Don’t forget the error bars .. #phd #reviewer2
