Tel Aviv University and the Sackler Family Agreed to Remove the Name Sackler from the Faculty of Medicine
A joint announcement on behalf of Tel Aviv University and the Sackler family
22 June 2023
For the last 50 years, the Faculty of Medicine at Tel Aviv University has proudly borne the Sackler family name.
In a continuing desire and commitment to assist the University and the Faculty to raise funds for medical research, the Sackler family has kindly agreed to remove their name from the Faculty of Medicine. With this move, they will enable the University to offer naming opportunities for the Faculty of Medicine and School of Medicine to new donors.
Tel Aviv University gratefully acknowledges the multi-decade contributions of the Sackler family to the development of the Faculty of Medicine into an Israeli and world leader in the health field.
