Innovators from the Technion are advancing health care across multiple fronts. These breakthroughs signal a shift toward modern medicine that’s more precise, responsive, and patient-centered. Here is just a sample of the latest innovations.
According to a recent report, government officials in the United States and Israel are considering a joint effort to develop a large-scale research and development campus for artificial intelligence in Israel’s Western Negev desert. The plan, which is called Project Spire, would create an advanced fabrication and design center to produce, assemble, and test a new generation of computer chips to meet the demands of the rapidly developing artificial intelligence era. The report in the Wall Street Journal was written by two members of Hudson Institute’s Center for Peace and Security in the Middle East, a conservative think tank based…
Rocket and missile attacks and natural disasters can leave first responders racing to save civilians trapped inside damaged buildings. But critical structural information is often locked away in municipal archives, slowing emergency response efforts. Researchers from the Technion and University of Haifa have developed an AI-based system that rapidly delivers this information to rescue teams […]
Could the entire internet fit inside a shoebox? As our world generates more data than our hard drives can handle, we are rapidly approaching a global storage crisis. Prof. Eitan Yaakobi reveals a solution that has been perfecting itself for billions of years: DNA. He discusses his team’s groundbreaking work to translate digital bits into […]
AI is transforming nearly every aspect of modern life — and the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology stands at the forefront of that change. From breakthrough research to globally influential startups, the Technion has earned international recognition as a leader in AI innovation. That leadership was underscored with the release of Greenfield Partners’ 2025 […]
Though invisible to the naked eye, every light wave contains tiny points of complete darkness. For half a century, scientists have theorized that these “dark points” move even faster than the light waves in which they’re formed. Thanks to a group of researchers from the Technion’s Andrew and Erna Viterbi Faculty of Electrical and Computer […]
Researchers at the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) model designed to help guide whether to administer chemotherapy directly after tumor resection in breast cancer patients. The model, which uses high-resolution images from hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained tumor samples collected at the time of diagnosis, predicts both the risk of cancer recurrence and the likelihood that a patient will benefit from chemotherapy. The research, published in The Lancet Oncology, identifies patterns and signals in the tumor that might otherwise escape detection. “These are complex biological signals that the human eye cannot consistently quantify,” said…
As the crew of Artemis II—NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover and Christina Koch and Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen—prepare to splash down on Earth after a landmark 10‑day voyage around the moon, attention now turns to their return. What Is Artemis 2? Artemis II is NASA’s first crewed test flight of the Artemis program. It sends four astronauts aboard the Orion spacecraft on a mission that loops around the moon and returns to Earth. The crew lifted off at 6:35 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on April 1 from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. NASA says Artemis II’s goal…
For quite a while, someone has been living inside my computer, writing emails for me. I don’t recall signing up for this artificial intelligence feature, which is like having a word valet. It’s in my phone, too, which offers three serviceable but impersonal responses I can fire off to someone who has just sent me an email pitching a story or asking if I want to meet for coffee. “I’d like to do coffee,” was one of the suggested responses to a recent email. “Let me circle back soon about timing.” One argument for these features is that they can…
The Technion — Israel Institute of Technology was ranked the best university in computer science and artificial intelligence research in Israel and Europe. It was also ranked 21st worldwide, according to an index unveiled by CSRankings on Monday. The index was created using the number of peer-reviewed conference papers published by Technion researchers between 2005 and 2025 at the world’s leading computer science conferences, highlighting the Technion as one of the leading institutions in AI research and development. The institute was also ranked among the top ten most important universities when investigating Machine Learning, a subfield of Artificial Intelligence. The…
Ali Ayoub told the Globes Putting the North at the Center Conference that Nvidia does not see the north as a periphery but as the center of the AI revolution. “I was born and raised in the (Galilee) village of Majd al-Krum and was infatuated by the field of technology from an early age. I remember my father buying us a computer, which was not a given. I shared the computer with my brothers,” Nvidia VP software engineering Ali Ayoub told Globes technology editor Assaf Gilead at the Globes Putting the North at the Center Conference held in cooperation with…
In recent decades, growing resources have been invested in the field of hydrogen as a raw material that aligns with the vision of a green economy and the use of sustainable energy. Hydrogen production is not a new process, but the aspiration to protect the environment and improve efficiency presents numerous technological challenges. A group of researchers at the Technion – Israel Institue of Technology and Sweden’s Chalmers University of Technology is presenting a breakthrough in the field – a development expected to significantly improve hydrogen storage capacity for future use. Growing awareness of the environmental damage caused by human…
