The Samoueli Institute for Cancer Research and Innovation at Beilinson Hospital received an unprecedented donation of $50 million (approximately 150 million shekels) from a couple, Dr. Henry Samoueli and Dr. Susan Samoueli. This is the highest amount ever granted to a medical institution in Israel for research purposes, and marks the couple's second donation in the past three years to the institute at the Davidoff Cancer Center. Israeli hospitals have previously received much larger donations, but those were primarily designated for construction purposes.
