Thousands of Israeli scientists, managers and doctors are currently staying in the USA in the best research institutes, universities and life sciences and biotech companies
A new collaboration was inaugurated between Ben-Gurion University in the Negev and the BioAbroad association for the purpose of bringing back Israeli scientists from the Diaspora and absorbing them into the ranks of the various departments of the university and the National Institute of Biotechnology in the Negev.
As part of the collaboration, the university will publish job ads for senior positions on BioAbroad's unique portal www.BioAbroad.org.il. In addition, researchers from the university who are on mission or sabbatical will meet with the members of the association and the scientists at conferences and professional events and will maintain the important connection to Israel and the university.
The director of the National Institute of Biotechnology in the Negev, Prof. Verda Shoshan-Barmetz stated that "returning scientists to Israel in general and the university and the institute in particular, should be a national goal. I am happy to take a leading step in this noble cause." The member of the executive committee of the Beaubrod association, Dr. Dan Gintzl, said that the association brings together hundreds of Israeli scientists from abroad who wish to return to Israel and integrate into academia and industry. "I am happy about the initiative and the cooperation with Ben-Gurion University and hope that it will lead to further collaborations with universities and companies in the fields of science and medicine," stressed Dr. Gintzl.
About Ben-Gurion University of the Negev and the National Institute of Biotechnology
Ben-Gurion University of the Negev regretted promoting national goals in promoting society, science, industry and the economy in the Negev. At the initiative of the university and with the support of the Israeli government and a visionary philanthropist, a National Institute for Biotechnology in the Negev was established at Ben-Gurion University, which will serve as an incentive for the economic and industrial development of the Negev. The institute engages in applied research in the life sciences and medicine, has scientific personnel and physical infrastructure in specific research fields and standards that guarantee world-class excellence. The institute will serve as a magnet for excellent Israeli researchers from the country and around the world, will attract to the Negev industries in the fields of life sciences and will serve as a driving force for the development of these industries.

It is possible that our hopes have not yet "worked", the hope is two thousand years old...
But, our hope has not been lost, the hope is two thousand years old... to be a free people in our country, the Land of Zion, Jerusalem.

Ami, typo, postdoc, sorry.

I believe that David Ben-Gurion's long-term vision is still good for you.
On the face of it, if you read the latest trends of your friends, here on the site, their reactions, and their initiatives,
It is also possible that the funding sources..can come from other unexpected sources, if all of us, in different and strange, and "strange" ways, understand and are committed to doing and acting wisely.
Besides, the supreme destiny in its deceptive ways, sometimes gives us a pinch in the tussock, in order for us to be educated and grow up according to the values of the superior.
Like you, like me, I am also not exempt.
If you ask, why, among other things, I am responding here... after all, it is for the same reason you mentioned, and my friends
The dearest - great talents, intending to go to Silicon Valley... and that's already a cry
The innocent, who also have something to learn..we are not exempt, and that is our duty..and that is how it works.
no job. No research. There are no standards for researchers. Even if you get a place, the conditions

The situation is worst.
If the university thinks that with the help of a scholarship of less than NIS 7500 per month (of course without payment of social security or other insurances) it will be able to retain the best minds of the Jewish people - then the university is deeply immersed in severe delusions.
I really hope for the benefit of the leaders of the community that they have a new rabbit in the hat.
