Member of the  Weizmann Institute for Science and of NYU Abu Dhabi had a collaborative workshop on Tuesday, December 22, 2020. The Weizmann Institute of Science is one of the world’s leading multidisciplinary basic research institutions in the natural and exact sciences. It is located in Rehovot, Israel, just south of Tel Aviv. It was initially established as the Daniel Sieff Institute in 1934, by Israel and Rebecca Sieff of London in memory of their son Daniel. In 1949, it was renamed for Dr. Chaim Weizmann, the first President of the State of Israel and Founder of the Institute.

The Weizmann Institute has a lengthy history of investigation and discovery rooted in a mission of advancing science for the benefit of humanity. Simultaneously, it educates a substantial proportion of Israel’s scientific leadership and advances science literacy in schools and among the public. Participants presented talks on already existing collaboration areas on astro-particle physics. Slides can be accessed here.
