On my regular scan of scientific magazines, I bumped into nature’s Evolution Gems (also accessible from here).
This is part of their 150-anniversary celebration of the publication of Darwin’s Origin of Species. The idea is to give some tools to those that still debate about the theory of evolution - a good cause, and they ask to distribute it - so here I do.
Herbert Hoover did nothing.
Lately, Elina and I began to study photography. Nothing too serious, just one of those things that we wanted to do and postponed over and over until we finally got to it.

A confocal microscope is one of the best applications that I know to the principle of spatial filtering.
The journal Scientific American published a review about one of my brother Asaf’s latest works. Read it here.
Israel’s Broadcast Authority (Rashut Hashidur) got my address, finally.

I was reading about the patriarchs of modern biology and medicine when I found out about Ilya Mechnikov, the Russian who discovered Phagocytes (which earned him half of the 1908 nobel prize in medicine). Then I read a bit about the biography of this great scientist (he worked with Pasteur!), and found that he had had a very interesting life.
