About the National BioInnovators Forum by Teva;
Teva launched this year the first class of a new forum for excellent Israeli PhD and post doc students that are interested in translational Life sciences and entrepreneurship in biosciences. The forum includes, this year, 28 top students from Tel Aviv university, Technion and Hebrew university.
The forum includes monthly meetings of the students that are dedicated for training and exposure to the Israeli bioecosystem including networking opportunities, field visits, hackathons and other events. Mentorship and consulting meeting (PIs and students will are invited) for scientific projects from leading experts in the Teva's R&D management in Israel and abroad in various aspects of preclinical, clinical, regulatory, legal and commercial aspects. The goal of the forum is mostly to contribute to the personal career development of these young scientists, create personal and scientific opportunities for collaboration and in general boost the Israeli bioecosystem by building a young generation of Bioinnovators. The forum is part of the vast activity of Teva with the academia globally and in Israel specifically. Building strong and strategic collaboration with leading academic labs to seed innovation and enhance Teva's future pipeline.
