{image_1}Israel played a role in developing the cell phone; it has an important research location for the Intel computer processor; it’s one of the first nations to help disaster-struck Haiti; and it’s a world-leader in defense technologies. Yet, it’s a tiny country consisting of roughly 7 million people and a territory about the same as Wales, the state of New Jersey, or Kruger National Park in South Africa.

Using a mobile phone camera with a [US] $15 specialized lens, the system can detect malaria by imaging the eye or the skin to look for hemozoin, a pigment generated by the malaria parasite.

{image_1}The physical deterioration of old age and illness is often manifested in what doctors call chronic wounds, wounds that just will not repair themselves. An Israeli biotechnology company has developed a product that aims to do what the body can’t—heal wounds that have festered for months, if not years. CEO of MacroCure Dr. Michael Shirvan said, “Our product CureXcell is on the market in Israel. It has already been administered by physicians to more than 4,500 patients with severe chronic wounds that would probably have remained with them for years.”

{image_1}Hop aboard the jolly red locomotive that winds around the Jerusalem Botanical Gardens, and you're likely to see blooming and budding everywhere you look. But it's not just the 10,000 species of plants that are blossoming at this 30-acre oasis at the southeast corner of the Hebrew University's Givat Ram campus. The gardens are also alive with the sounds of some 180,000 visitors per year, up from 80,000 in 2008.
