BioAbroad puts now more emphasis on keeping in touch with Israelis abroad.  In this newsletter we included two new sections: News from Israel and Open Positions that we hope will assist you. 
  • IP database - BioAbroad would like to build a data base for Israeli IP abroad.  If you have a provisional or registered IP that you are interested in commercializing please contact rami@BioAbroad.org.il for more details.
  • Last chance to register to the Ministry of Absorption's "Coming Home" program. Click here.
  • Following many requests from new post-docs we prepared an FAQ document that is relevant for both new and existing post-docs. 
  • We have two new sponsors that bring benefits to our members:  ooVoo provides the next generation of video communication platform with enhanced human interface, we believe ooVoo will enable to improve your communication with your friends, family and colleagues in Israel.  United Revenues is a national tax accounting firm that specializes in tax cuts for Israelis abroad, see United Revenues coupon below.
  • Please make sure that your details in our website are updated and include a CV.  This is important for job hunting, networking and new collaborations!  Check or update your details here.

As always, we ask you to spread the word about our activity and suggest new ideas that will enable more people to return to find fulfilling jobs in Israel.
