Each year, the PHC program MAIMONIDES funds Franco-Israeli bilateral research programs around two themes previously chosen by a committee of experts – the High Council for Science and Technology (HCST). One of the themes selected this year, “The impact of climate change on biodiversity and public health”, will be a seminar on 2 and 3 May in Haifa, at the Hotel Bir Ezion Haifa bringing together french and Israeli researchers.
