Standing Strong with Israeli Academia. Standing with Israel
The Zuckerman Israel Institute stands shoulder to shoulder with the Weizmann Institute of Science, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev and Tel Aviv University in the wake of the senseless Iranian missile attacks on their campuses several weeks ago.
While we are extremely grateful that no one was killed, we are deeply pained by the wanton destruction of research labs and feel for each researcher whose lifeโs work was completely destroyed. Proudly, just two days after the strike in Rehovot, the prestigious European Research Council awarded twelve Advanced Grants to Israeli universities - six of which went to Weizmann Institute researchers. Weizmann secured four of the 81 grants awarded by the ERC In the life sciences category.
Together, we will work to advance academic research in Israel that will strengthen us and contribute to the betterment of the world at large.Weizmann Institute of Science
How weโre rebuilding the Weizmann Institute โ and our hopes for a better future
Scientific research is at the heart of Israelโs success and has worldwide benefits. Our work will continue despite adversity.
