YISSUM RESEARCH DEVELOPMENT COMPANY is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and is the exclusive owner of the University''s know-how and intellectual property.

Currently, YISSUM is promoting over 200 projects in the areas of Biotechnology, Pharmaceutics, Medicine, Basic and Applied Physics, Chemistry and Material sciencies, Computer sciencies and Agriculture (including food technology and nutrition).
