We want to help bring an MRI Machine and open an MRI Reseach Centre in the Technion – Watch the video for more information. Click here to support the project: https://technionuk.org/donation/

The Technion is proposing the establishment of the Human MRI Facility to make possible research not only to better understand the brain but also to provide new types of therapy via neurofeedback.

Establishment of the Human MRI Facility will put this vital tool in the hands of outstanding researchers from a wide range of fields who will not just fully exploit its abilities but will also improve them through the development and implementation of new sequences, real-time data acquisition, processing and analysis. Israel, in great part due to the Technion, is a world leader in the research and development of medical devices and treatment. Establishing the Human MRI Facility will provide the Technion with equipment common in leading universities such as MIT and Stanford, and enable its researchers to achieve unprecedented understanding about the human body in illness and in health and to improve diagnosis and treatment in order to save lives and to improve the quality of life for people in Israel and around the globe.

Prof. Marcelle Machluf of Technion -Israel Institute of Technology’s Faculty of Biotechnology and Food Engineering heads the Lab for Cancer Drug Delivery & Cell-Based Technologies. Her patented Nano-ghosts technology offers a novel and versatile drug delivery platform to fight cancer.

A Special Message from Technion President Prof. Uri Sivan On Sept. 26, 2019, Technion-Israel Insitute of Technology held the presidential inauguration ceremony. Prof. Uri Sivan took office as 17th president of Technion.

Technion-Israel Institute of Technology Prof. Shulamit Levenberg of the Faculty of Biomedical Engineering is the co-founder of Aleph Farms, the first company to create cultured beef steak through tissue engineering.
Aleph Farms and Technion are part of a food revolution that will provide meat that is safe, antibiotic-free, sustainable and environmentally friendly, without the need to slaughter animals.

Since its establishment in 2007, the Nancy and Stephen Grand Technion Energy Program, GTEP, has become a national hub and center of world-caliber research and education in energy. GTEP-led activities have generated significant scientific discoveries, forged strong industrial and academic ties in Israel and abroad, and attracted first rate faculty members and students.

From biophysics to quantum science and technology, astrophysics, condensed matter, plasma, high energy physics and optics – the Physics Faculty covers a tremendous range of fields, both theoretical and experimental, both fundamental and applied. The faculty’s graduates fill key roles in academia, high-tech industry, business, and government.

GTEP member Asst. Prof. Matthew Suss of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at Technion-Israel Institute of Technology discusses the research work in his Laboratory for Energy & Environmental Innovations.

His research interests include:

– Electrochemical systems for energy and water applications;
– Capacitive water desalination;
– Flow batteries for large scale energy storage;
– Electroosmotic micropumps;
– Fluidic and species transport in porous electrode structures;
– Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy;
– Rapid prototyping of energy and water devices
