The Biological Institute and the Weizmann Institute of Science will join hands in advancing research designed to develop ways to combat the coronavirus. The Memorandum of Understanding between the two institutes, in this regard, has been signed in recent days.
The two neighboring institutes are characterized by unique excellence, each in their own field, and collaboration between them can result in significant synergy and acceleration (a multiplier) in the process that scientists hope will lead to a medical response to the virus.
Biological Institute Director Prof. Shmuel Shapiro and Weizmann Institute of Science and Technology Applications Vice President Prof. Irit Sagi say signing the Memorandum of Understanding is a milestone in broader joint activity between the two institutes.
