Facing the challenge Through interdisciplinary scientific research, which cannot be adequately undertaken in traditional contexts, IMBM aims to influence the direction of biomedical development in Israel and abroad. It focuses on those areas that can encourage new concepts in medicine and can bridge the gap between science, high-tech industry and practical applications with the aim of solving the most urgent clinical needs. Responding to urgent needs Research made by the founders of IMBM provides new ways of defining better treatment for cancer and infectious diseases.
Cancer is an increasingly prevalent disease.
Infectious diseases, such as HIV, are still waiting for solutions from modern medicine. Current disciplines follow the long and inefficient route of trial and error for defining therapeutic protocols and vaccination strategies. Thus, despite better prognosis for these diseases, we are still facing bewildering statistics, which are especially frustrating bearing in mind the tremendous medical, scientific and financial efforts made so far. Following the path taken by its founders, IMBM opens the gate to a new approach for solving these problems based on analytical methods rather than the traditional experimental methods. These methods, constituting a breakthrough in shortening the way for optimizing chemotherapy and vaccination strategies, will hopefully aid in improving treatment strategies.
