In an unprecedented joint venture, Rambam Medical Center and the University of Haifa have announced the construction of a 20-story tower for medical research, on the hospital’s campus in Haifa.

The 400-million-shekel structure, dubbed the Medical Discovery Tower, was announced at a press conference attended by Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon and Health Minister Rabbi Yaakov Litzman.
