They Survived the Nova Massacre. Being Soldiers Made It Harder to Get Help
24-year-old Noam Arush, is a reservist who was still a conscripted soldier when he attended the Nova music festival on October 7, 2023, where he lost his close friend, Guy Simhi. “Sometimes, I close my eyes and I can see him. The sight of him when I emerged from the protected space and saw him there with a massive bloodstain spread across his whole body never leaves my head.
She survived the Nova massacre, she did not survive the trauma
Yaffa Golan woke up a little more than a year ago in her home in the moshav of Porat, in central Israel. That Sukkot holiday, she planned to travel with her husband to Jerusalem for the Kohanim Blessing ceremony. Because it was also her youngest daughter Shirel’s 22nd birthday, and it was important to her to be with her on that day, she suggested that Shirel join them. Shirel, who at that point was barely getting out of bed, refused.
The transparent victims of the war: Rise in soldier suicides, mostly reservists
It began as an ordinary Friday in April 2024, just before the Passover holiday. Nir Doron Avraham was making breakfast for his wife, Nofar, and their three small children. Afterwards, he was supposed to go to his job at Bezeq, but told his wife that he needed to get something from the car first. Half an hour later, when Nir had not returned, Nofar went outside to check if everything was okay – but their car was not there. She tried to call his cell phone but he did not answer.
Clouds Over the Ocean – a Healthcare Perspective - HPCwire
Advances in precision medicine, genomics, and imaging; the widespread adoption of electronic health records; and the proliferation of medical Internet of Things (IoT) and mobile devices are resulting in an explosion of structured and unstructured healthcare-related data. Industry analysts expect that by 2020, the amount of medical data in the world will double every 73 days. And a typical healthcare consumer in the developed countries will generate 1,200 terabytes of data in a lifetime.
The Composable Future of Genomics Research
Healthcare is evolving rapidly. Nothing demonstrates this fact more clearly than genomics. The original Human Genome Project took 13 years to complete and cost $2.7 billion. Today, according to IDC, whole-genome sequencing costs less than $1,000 and can be completed in as little as 27 hours. Genomics medicine is the direction in which the healthcare industry is moving. Healthcare providers want to target diseases more precisely with treatment specific to each patient.
Making data-driven research an essential part of your DNA
The completion of the Human Genome Project in 2003 led to an expansion of research on the contributions of genomics in disease diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. The rapid growth of genomics data compels hospitals, medical centers, research institutions, and pharmaceuticals R&D centers to deal with large files, many files, and complex data types.
Getting Your Data Ready for Precision Medicine
Data is flowing out of every instrument – faster and bigger each day – creating massive quantities of data that needs to be captured, stored, cleaned, analyzed and archived. How can we: Tackling these BIG challenges with the right approach to data will help you take advantage of new opportunities and derive faster clinical insight with greater resource utility.
A new era of personalized healthcare - IBM Healthcare & Life Sciences Industries Blog
Advancements in medical science and technology continue to reduce the time and cost of genomics sequencing, bridging the gap between research and clinical decision support. If your IT infrastructure cannot meet your analytical and data demands – or worse, is slowing research and collaboration and minimizing your ability to take the most informed decisions – there are some efficient ways to address this.
Modernizing technology in the cognitive era - IBM Healthcare & Life Sciences Industries Blog
How can you cope with the exponential growth of data, while your time-to-insight grows more challenging? Hospitals, genome centers, medical research centers and other healthcare institutions all are dealing with this common challenge of new—and mostly unstructured– data sources that continue to emerge, expanding the data ecosystem, making it harder to manage, store and analyze data fast enough.
Behind the scenes of precision medicine - IBM Systems Blog: In the Making
Advancing the science of medicine relies largely on access to patients’ genomic information and the other related biological or environmental factors causing disease. Armed with additional information, researchers and physicians can often target a disease more precisely with treatment specific to the individual, and potentially deliver higher-quality personalized patient care.
