Outstanding Scientific Achievement: Research Led by Prof. H. Shadi Farah Featured on the Cover of Science Translational Medicine
The Faculty is proud to congratulate Prof. H. Shadi Farah and his research team on an exceptional and groundbreaking scientific achievement. The study, led by Prof. Farah in collaboration with MIT and research groups from Harvard University, Johns Hopkins University, and the University of Massachusetts, has received remarkable international recognition.
The research was selected to appear on the cover of the prestigious journal Science Translational Medicine and was also featured on Israel’s Channel 12 News, underscoring its significant scientific and clinical impact.
The study addresses one of the major challenges in regenerative medicine: the body’s natural rejection of implanted devices. As part of the research, an innovative implantable device was developed for patients with diabetes, enabling continuous monitoring of glucose levels and significantly reducing the need for daily measurements.
This breakthrough holds great potential for improving the quality of life of people living with diabetes and for advancing cutting-edge implantable medical technologies.
