On March 26, the Weizmann Institute hosted a conversation with Prof. Gilad Perez, dean of the Feinberg Graduate School, and several Weizmann graduate students who shared how their lives have been impacted in the shadow of October 7.
Perez, a professor in the Department of Particle Physics & Astrophysics, explained that there are three different stories – stories of students who were drafted, international students and postdocs and how the Institute is supporting these different communities, and the thoughts and process for the day after the war.
