Bina Innovation Fellowship - Cohort 3 - 3rd Session

Session 3 of Bina Innovation Fellows program focused on technology evaluation and turning ideas into testable plans:

Dr. Sharon Kredo-Russo (SVP Research & Discovery, Compugen) gave us practical tools to evaluate academic technologies - how to frame the unmet need, assess novelty, and articulate why our approach is better than alternatives. She then walked us through planning a PoC - workplan, milestones, success criteria, and budget - what to define up front and how to measure progress.

We wrapped with hands-on work in small groups, applying the framework to real projects from Bina’s portfolio.

From framework to practice: clearer lenses, sharper plans, and actionable next steps.

Big thanks to Sharon Kredo-Russo for an such an insightful session.

Session 2 took us from the investor lens to the incubator model and all the way to a founder’s journey.

Dr. Tamar Farfel-Becker, PhD (YEDA - Technology Transfer Company of Weizmann Institute of Science) unpacked the venture capital world and how opportunities look through an investor’s eyes - what matters, why timing and fit are key, and how to speak the language of value.

Bina Workshop For Students in the Weizmann MD-PhD Program.

Dr. Merav Marom and Dr. Ronny Peri Naor, project managers at Bina, Weizmann Institute of Science, had the pleasure of instructing a workshop for students in the Weizmann MD-PhD Program.
Our goal was to strengthen the foundations of research planning and experimental design. Rigorous design is what turns “interesting results” into reliable, reproducible data. We discussed a key translational challenge: many academic experiments fail to reproduce well when applied in an industry setting, which directly impacts the path from discovery to real-world impact.
