Israeli selected as 2009 Nobel Prize Laureate in Chemistry
Though its not especially business related, it is worth mentioning that Professor Ada Yonath of the Weizman Institute of Science in Israel, has been awarded the 2009 Nobel Prize in Chemistry along with two of her American counterparts. The award comes in recognition of Professor Yonath’s work with ribosomes, the foundations for protein generation, which will hopefully contribute to progress in the development of antibiotics.
Israeli innovation never ceases to amaze us here at TAMID, and is a core impetus for our work– to show that Israel is an innovation hub for finding creative solutions to the world’s most challenging problems.
