Einstein Award Gala

The Einstein Award, established by the American Friends of the Hebrew University, Recognizes the far-ranging contributions of innovators who have made a compelling impact on the course of modern science, and whose tireless efforts improve the lives of people globally. Inspired by Einstein’s commitment to human progress and his dissemination of knowledge being “for the benefit of humanity,” that phrase became the subtitle and tagline for the event. Einstein’s theory of relativity provides the foundation for the current understanding of black holes, symbolizing how his work influenced future astrophysicists’ investigations.
