Israeli AI Startup Targets Huntington's Disease

The Tel Aviv startup has joined forces with U.S.-based CHDI Foundation to develop AI-powered eye-tracking biomarkers that could revolutionize how the deadly brain disorder is diagnosed and treated.

The partnership builds one of the world’s largest datasets of eye movements to spot early signs of neurological decline.

Researchers say it’s a breakthrough that could speed drug trials and cement Israel’s role as a global leader in medical innovation.

Playground Redefines Inclusion for Kids with Disabilities

In Israel, playtime means everyone gets a turn.

At the country’s first inclusive playground in Ra’anana, children with and without disabilities climb, swing, and explore side by side — thanks to design tweaks that open the gates to all.

“It’s about more than access,” a staffer told Newsmax Israel Correspondent Jodie Cohen. “It’s about building a community where everyone belongs.”

From wide wheelchair ramps to adaptive swings, the park’s model has inspired more than 60 inclusive playgrounds across Israel — and even a replica in the UK.
