This is the sentence: Zangen is the co-inventor of several patents for Deep TMS H-coil technology, which allows for deep non-invasive stimulation of the brain, a technology that has been FDA cleared for the treatment of MDD. Zahira Cohen ( talk) 08:50, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
Deleted Additionally, the reference for israel21c.org (and any text cited by it) was removed. According to the Terms of Service, it states in part:

I have worked this over and removed the tags. We don't build biographies of scientists in WP by citing their papers and describing what they say. For people with many many papers like Zangen this become just random or is driven by some knowledge that is not actually in the sources. So please don't do that.

Thank you for all the changes that have been done so far. One more thing, It is stated that Zangen was made a professor in 2015. Please change it according to the CV. He was made a professor since 2010 but received a FULL professor in 2015. Thank you so much! Zahira Cohen ( talk) 08:47, 21 January 2018 (UTC)

Hi again! Thank you for the corrections so far. There are still things that were left open of the previous request. 1. adding the FDA approval (I added a sentence as was asked in the previous request) 2. Changing the dates for the professor achievement: I also wrote that he was made a professor in 2010 and 2015 he achieved full professor rank and I think both should be written, or the former (i.e., he was made a professor in 2010). 3. Please add Zangen's picture: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Abraham_Zangen_Profile_Picture.jpg
Thank you so much in advance :) Zahira Cohen ( talk) 17:31, 22 January 2018 (UTC)
Date of year corrected. Please note that the previously listed date of 2012 — an errant date which, because it conflicted with the date you were attempting to add (2010) acted to keep open your edit request —
was not an edit I implemented — and thus, wasn't a door I left open. Needless to say, I am happy to close it. As far as the FDA information, if you could point out where that is located I would be most grateful. Thank you Regards,

Hi, This is Abraham Zangen, I am not sure what is the basis for the selected scientific publications here (out of over 170 articles and book chapters that I have authored). Can you please add the "google scholar" link to the full list of my scientific publications (the advantage is that it is authomatically updated): https://scholar.google.co.il/citations?user=kgHy4MQAAAAJ&hl=iw I hope this is possible. Also, there are some factual errors in the article regarding my career which Zahira Cohen suggested correcting already in January 22. -- — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.172.61.147 ( talk • contribs) 06:13, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
Since there is no answer, I am sending a new request.
1. Please modify the sentence under "Scientific Career" saying: Zangen returned to Israel in 2003 and took a position at the Weizmann Institute to: Zangen returned to Israel in 2003 and established a neurobiology lab at the Weizmann Institute[1], where he received a professorship in 2010[2]. In these years he characterized long-term neuroplastic and behavioral effects of brain stimulation in animal models [please add references A,B,C – see below] and humans [references D,E – see below] , and developed systems for controlling electric field pulse parameters using deep transcranial magnetic stimulation[reference F – see below] .
Reference "A" – Levy D., Shabat-Simon M., Shalev U., Barnea-Ygael N., Cooper A. and Zangen A. (2007) Repeated electrical stimulation of reward-related brain regions affects cocaine but not "natural" reinforcement. J. Neurosci. 27; 14179-89.
Reference "B" – Gersner R., Toth E., Isserless I. and Zangen A. (2010) Site-specific antidepressant effects of repeated subconvulsive electrical stimulation: potential role of brain-derived neurotrophic factor. Biol. Psychiatry, 67: 125-132.
Reference "C" – Gersner R., Kravetz E., Feil J., Pell G. and Zangen A. (2011) Long-term effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on markers for neuroplasticity: differential outcomes in anesthetized and awake animals. J Neurosci. 31:7521-6.
Reference "D" – Levkovitz Y., Roth Y., Harel E.V., Braw Y., Sheer A. and Zangen A. (2007) Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation: a randomized controlled safety and cognitive study. Clin. Neurophysiol, 118: 2730–2744.
Reference "E" – Levkovitz Y., Harel E.V.,Roth Y., Braw Y., Sheer A. , Katz L., Gersner R. and Zangen A. (2009) Deep transcranial magnetic stimulation over the prefrontal cortex: evaluation of antidepressant and cognitive effects in depressive patients. Brain Stimulation 2: 188-200.
Reference "F" - https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2010067336A2/nl
2. Then the last sentence now stating:
"In 2012 he joined the faculty of Ben-Gurion University of the Negev as an associate professor and was made a full professor in 2015.[2]"
Should be replaced with:
In 2012 he joined the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev to the chair of the Psychobiology Brain Program and established the Neurobiology of Behavior lab[2]. He was made a full professor in 2015[2].
Thank you in advance Zahira Cohen ( talk) 08:26, 22 February 2018 (UTC)
Hi, this is Abraham Zangen (the subject of this article). I would like to comment that the patent and related literature described above in this talk page by Zahira Cohen in February 21, are perhaps the most important description of my scientific work following the initial development of deep TMS and brain stimulation research. This is far more important than (the inaccurate) details on my promotion to associate prof. (which was at 2010, not 2012) vs. full prof. Therefore, I think that all the suggested revisions from Feb 21 should be accepted. -- 109.186.78.98 ( talk) 10:14, 5 March 2018 (UTC)
The following is more accurate and relevant information for the item:
Zangen studies neuroplasticity in the brain reward system and the effects of brain stimulation on neuroplasticity in psychiatric disorders including depression, addiction and attention deficits. [1]
During his postdoc at the U.S. National Institutes of Health, Zangen was part of a team that invented a magnetic coil called the "H coil" for use in transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS); the coil allows deeper penetration of the magnetic field into the brain and the procedure whereby the H-coil was applied to TMS became known as deep TMS. [2] [3] [4] [5] The H-coil was patented by the NIH in 2002, and was licensed by the startup company Brainsway in 2003. [5] [6] He has continued to do research on applications for deep TMS. [1]
Zangen returned to Israel in 2003 and established a neurobiology lab at the Weizmann Institute [4], where he received a professorship in 2010 [1]. In these years he characterized long-term neuroplastic and behavioral effects of brain stimulation in animal models [7] [8] [9], and humans [10] [11], and developed systems for controlling electric field pulse parameters using deep transcranial magnetic stimulation [12] . In 2012 he joined the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev to the chair of the Psychobiology Brain Program and established the Neurobiology of Behavior lab [1]. He was made a full professor in 2015 [1].

Hi, I don't fully understand why the sentence on the patent is not included. Also, if you mention the year regarding "full professor" (2015) it would only make sense to mention the correct year of "associate professor" (2010) and not as you imply (2012). The other issues discussed above regarding a link to the publications were not addressed either. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.72.90.100 ( talk) 18:38, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
User:Gilabrand in general we avoid citing mainstream media reports based on press releases about research papers - see WP:MEDREV. The Times of Isreal piece is a great example of why we don't do this. It says actually ridiculous things like "the US Food and Drug Administration is now testing the machine for approval." and "The FDA is conducting clinical trials on a version of the most effective treatment at some 20 clinics throughout the United States, Europe, and Israel." It also hypes the results, not dealing at all with the key medical/scientific issues like whether each arm of the study was adequately powered and other aspects of experimental design that an appropriate source would do. The Times of Isreal is very reliable for news etc; this particular piece is bad in the typical ways that mainstream media based on press releases about research papers are, and not something we should even cite in WP. The content you have been wanting to source from this "Zangen claims that deep TMS can help smokers quit the habit by boosting networks of neurons in behavior- inhibiting brain regions which will make them better able to resist the urge to smoke" also goes a bit beyond what Zangen is quoted as saying - he says it ~appears~ to help smokers quit. fwiw we also avoid "claim" per WP:CLAIM.
With respect to the elaborations you have added about his academic career moves, you have a nice quote on your user page from Dr Seuss abut this; there is no need for all this flourish. He was there, then there, then there, nor is there a need to use more and more self-published sources. Jytdog ( talk) 15:45, 21 March 2018 (UTC)
