On June 20, the Bel Air, California home of Evelyn and Bill Bernstein was filled with over 100 supporters when the American Friends of Rabin Medical Center held an informative event on Parkinson's disease. Guests watched a video highlighting Rabin Medical Center's stem cell and other research projects. Dr. Jeff Bronstein professor of neuroglogy and director of movement disorders at the UCLA School of Medicine and Mike Pursel of Teva Neroscience spoke about latest developments in Parkinson's research and treatment. Dr. Dan Oppenheim, CEO of the Rabin Medical Center, spoke about Israel's premier medical complex, while Dr. Joshua Plaut, national executive director of the American Friends thanked the group for helping to launch the organization's new presence in Southern California.
Many people don't realize that more Israelis die in road accidents than in war and terrorist attacks.
Rabin Medical Center continues to strengthen its ties with the Georgetown University Medical Center (GUMC) in Washington, DC, one of America's leading medical institutions.
Over five hundred and forty eminent american friends and
patrons of Rabin Medical Center gathered at the Pierre Hotel
on October 30, 2005 to show their solidarity with the State of
Israel and to acknowledge the outstanding accomplishments of
Rabin Medical Center.
