אני לא יודע אם יקח חודש רבעון או חס ושלום יותר כדי שתעוף מהחיים שלנו, אבל אני יודע בידיעה מוחלטת שלנצח תיזכר כמי שניסה להחריב את ישראל ושאת העונש שלך על הרוע,

done for the Palestinian cause? What do you know about our sympathy for the Palestinians? How many Palestinian students do you have? I currently have 3. Many of us Israeli academics boycotting Eisen, have been active against Israeli occupation for many years &..

Paper

accepted to eLife in 2022 (a year with many 2s). Both on striatal cholinergic interneurons:
#1
focused on their nicotinic control of SPNs, and now
#2
on how their dendritic nonlinearities help dissociate cortical and thalamic inputs. Two eLife, Two eLife, Le’Chaim!🥂

Therefore for

I did not mean to insinuate anything other than what has appeared in

board’s statement “his approach to leadership, communication and social media has at key times been detrimental to the cohesion of the community we are trying to build and hence to eLife’s mission.”
Another important finding in this paper (Fig 3) that is not obvious from its title is that we show that action potentials from an individual striatal cholinergic interneuron cause local dopamine release i.e., w/o requiring synchrony

Cutting off all communication to a population of 2.2 million is unacceptable. Journalists, medical professionals, humanitarian efforts, and innocents are all endangered.
I do not know how such an act can be defended. The United States has historically denounced this practice.
