prof richard horton in israel
At
the end of his three day visit with senior researchers and physicians at Rambam
Health Care Campus, Professor Richard Horton, editor of The Lancet, stated that
his visit to Israel was “a turning point for me and my relationship with this
region.” The outcome of his visit holds a promise for new academic and medical
collaborations that Horton has promised to support.
Today,
Professor Richard Horton, Editor-in-Chief of The Lancet, completed three days
of seminars and meetings with senior researchers and physicians at Rambam and
the Technion’s Ruth and Bruce Rappaport Faculty of Medicine. His visit was
initiated by Professor Karl Skorecki, Director of Medical Research at Rambam,
and Professor Rafi Beyar, Director of Rambam, followed by the endorsement of
the Israeli Ministry of Health, following The Lancet’s publication of a
controversial open letter that accused Israel of war crimes.
Horton’s
visit included tours of some of Rambam’s medical units, a series of medical and
ethical lectures, discussions, debates, and visits to Isifiya and Acco. Tuesday was an intensive day that included a
discussion on Science & Medicine as a Catalyst for Peaceful Coexistence,
coordinated by Professor Zaher Azzam, Head of Internal Medicne B at Rambam and
Vice Dean of the Technion’s Faculty of Medicine. Professor Asa Kasher a renown
ethical philosopher spoke in the evening on the Ethics of Armed Conflict and
Responsible Scholarly Journalism, where the ethics of publishing the
problematic letter in The Lancet were openly discussed. In a potentially charged atmosphere, the
discussion was handled with the utmost of respect and professionalism, with Kasher
and Horton shaking hands and continuing their discussion after the lecture had
ended.
