A new study from Tel Aviv University (TAU) shows that during the cosmic “dark ages,” dark matter formed dense clumps throughout the universe, which pulled in hydrogen gas and caused it to emit intense radio waves. The study demonstrates for the first time the insights that can be obtained from detecting radio waves coming to… Read More
A new study from Tel Aviv University (TAU) and the Dana Dwek Children’s Hospital in Tel Aviv has shown that disease can be prevented in children with obesity by maintaining a low percentage of fat in the liver. The researchers used innovative methods to examine 31 Israeli children with obesity in an attempt to understand… Read More
Researchers at Tel Aviv University (TAU) have developed a new approach for using locked nucleic acids (LNAs), a particularly stable type of RNA, to treat inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Their findings indicated improvement in all markers of systemic inflammation with no side effects. According to the researchers, this innovative… Read More
Both the social networking site LinkedIn and the PitchBook entrepreneurship index recently ranked Tel Aviv University (TAU) among the top international business schools.

Researchers from Tel Aviv University (TAU) and the Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center (Ichilov) have measured subjects’ memory without asking whether they remembered something or not, just by tracking their eye movements as they watched animation videos. The study demonstrated that people actually remember more than they report. Moreover, this method can be used to… Read More
Researchers at the Gray Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences at Tel Aviv University (TAU) have introduced an innovative gene therapy method to treat impairments in hearing and balance caused by inner ear dysfunction. The treatment constitutes an improvement over existing strategies, demonstrating enhanced efficiency and holding promise for treating a wide range of mutations… Read More
Researchers at Tel Aviv University (TAU) have developed a technique to fold glass sheets into microscopic 3D photonic structures directly on a chip, a process they call photonic origami. The method could enable tiny, yet complex optical devices for data processing sensing and experimental physics. “Existing 3D printers produce rough 3D structures that aren’t optically… Read More
Surgeons in Israel will soon implant a bioengineered, personalized human spinal cord into a paralyzed patient, with the goal of enabling the patient to rise from a wheelchair and walk again. The research behind this medical advance was led by Professor Tal Dvir, Head of the Sagol Center for Regenerative Biotechnology and Head of the… Read More
