The Azrieli Faculty of Medicine is proud to announce that Dr. David Azoulay, a researcher at affiliate hospital, Galilee Medical Center in Nahariya, has received the Israel Society for Clinical Laboratory Sciences 2020 excellent research award.

The decision was based on two papers published in international scientific journals:

1. A new flow cytometry based application developed by Dr. Azoulay for differentiation between indolent and aggressive lymphomas.
2. Research showing blood levels of BDNF as a biomarker for development of chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy in patients with hematological malignancies.

Prof. Chaim Putterman, Azrieli Associate Dean for Research and Director of the GMC Research Institute, congratulated Dr. Azoulay: "This award is further proof of your independent scientific contribution, while continuing your hard clinical laboratory work."

Dr. Azoulay would like to thank his colleagues: "I thank all the collaborators and laboratory staff and God willing, we will together continue to contribute to medical research in the Galilee."
