Gabbay Award
The Jacob Heskel Gabbay Award in Biotechnology and Medicine is a science award that was donated in 1998 by the Jacob and Louise Gabbay Foundation . The price is from the Rosenstiel Basic Medical Sciences Research Center at Brandeis University in Waltham ( Massachusetts managed), which is also the Rosenstiel Award awards. The award is endowed with $ 15,000 . The winners will also receive a medal and will be given a lecture on their work at Brandeis University.
The prize was donated under the impression that numerous science prizes primarily honor people who have already achieved broad recognition or who are active in traditional research areas. Revolutionary advances in science were often triggered by improvements in the technical or instrumental field. The Gabbay Award is therefore intended to honor scientists at the beginning of their careers who are active in academic research, in the medical sector or in industry, and whose work has an important practical influence on biomedical science.
