Proud of our #Nutrition Department at Rabin Medical Center, which had the privilege and responsibility to care for returning hostages after two years in #Hamas captivity.
May we never again need this kind of medicine 💛🇮🇱 @FrishmanSigal

Microbial Shift Over 1 Year Among Patients With Newly Diagnosed Crohn's Disease... journals.lww.com/ctg/fulltex… Happy to share our paper from @GastroRMC examining microbial dynamics in a prospective longitudinal inception cohort of newly diagnosed CD @IrisDotan @HenitYanaiMD @LGodny

Excited to share a milestone published in @NatureMedicine from our decade-long effort to build The Human Phenotype Project, a unique longitudinal cohort with unmatched depth of clinical and multi-omic profiling, enabling truly predictive, personalized medicine.
Led together with @ericxing, it is a global collaboration between @WeizmannScience, @MBZUAI, and Japanese partners, spanning 30,000+ participants and continuing to grow internationally
By devising AI models trained on individuals deeply profiled with genetics, microbiome, glucose, sleep, bone density, and more, we can now forecast diseases before symptoms appear and simulate treatment or lifestyle outcomes.
Key findings:
• Re-defined metabolic risk thresholds
• Predicted menopause impact via biological aging
• Mapped organ-specific aging trajectories
• Developed models for early detection of diabetes & heart disease
This dataset is a blueprint for digital health twins, AI-driven tools grounded in real-world, longitudinal data

First ever ECCO consensus on diet in IBD. Historic moment for clinical application of diet. Dietitian access to all patients for IBD recommended.

📢 Exciting news! Our new paper is out in Nutrients 🎉
We screened industrial breads through the lens of IBD nutrition, focusing on food additives and their potential impact on inflammation & dysbiosis.

🌿🥗 Can what’s on your plate help manage Crohn’s?
New research from @LGodny links the #MedDiet to better outcomes in Crohn’s disease.
Could diet be part of the treatment plan? #Crohns #IBD #GutHealth

It’s crazy that this even needs to be said - You CANT hold #hostages in “civilian” homes, in residential areas, REFUSE to release them peacefully AND THEN complain when there are “civilian” casualties during the operation to SAVE them! #Israel #HamasISIS
Welcome home 🇮🇱💙🤍💙🇮🇱
Noa Argamani (25), Almog Meir Jan (21), Andrey Kozlov (27), and Shlomi Ziv (40) were rescued in a special operation by the IDF, ISA and Israel Police from 2 separate locations in the heart of Nuseirat after being kidnapped by Hamas from the Nova music festival.
They are in good medical condition and have been transferred to the 'Sheba' Tel-HaShomer Medical Center for further medical examinations.
We will continue to make every effort to bring the hostages home.

And that’s a wrap!
The DIET program concluding sympo is done and I am leaving with lots of hope for the future of IBD nutrition. There are so many incredible clinicians who are doing this important work and it was invigorating to spend the last few days with them! @GilMelmedMD
Came back home to this unbelievable and horrifying reality 💔🎗️
Trigger alert –
The video of the female observers’ abduction, is a wake-up call to the civilized world. We must condemn those actions and we can not abandon the hostages held captive for 229 days.
This video, captured by the body cameras of Hamas terrorists on October 7th, has been edited and censored to exclude the most disturbing scenes, such as the numerous murdered young men and women at the Nahal Oz base and inside the bomb shelter from which the female observers were taken.
The Israeli government and the international community can’t waste another moment – we must get back to the negotiation table today!
