The Berkowitz Living Laboratory

Precision Medicine’s Vision

Untangling the precise factors that underlie such medical mysteries can illuminate individualized treatments based on a person’s genetic predispositions, immune profile, health history, and lifestyle. Such insights can propel forward the science and practice of precision medicine and have a profound effect on human health.

In a decisive step forward on this quest, Harvard Medical School in Boston and Clalit Research Institute in Tel Aviv have launched a joint precision medicine effort, enabled by a donation from the Berkowitz family.  

We have established The Ivan and Francesca Berkowitz Family Living Laboratory Collaboration at Harvard Medical School and Clalit Research Institute. The program has two arms:

- The Ivan and Francesca Berkowitz Family Living Laboratory at HMS.

- The Ivan and Francesca Berkowitz Family Precision Medicine Clinic at Clalit. 

 

The two arms work together to conduct joint research. They also feature a clinical component that provides diagnosis and care for patients with rare, undiagnosed, and hard-to-treat conditions, in addition to research.
