This assault on democratic institutions and principles is an imminent threat to Israeli academia, which relies on a solid democratic foundation. In response, universities, academics, and students have emerged as key proponents of ongoing protests under the banner, "No democracy, no academia."

Biomedical research is intended to benefit human beings and their health.
