  • Rutharnon Fellowships
    RuthArnon Fellowships מלגות רות ארנון תש"ף | 2020 Ruth Arnon Fellowships Introductory remarks Professor Nili Cohen President, Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities Throughout her illustrious scientific career, Professor Arnon has addressed the many concerns of researchers at the Weizmann Institute in particular and in Israel in general, by serving in many influential positions, as Dean of Biology, and Vice President for Research at the Institute and more recently as President of the Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities. In all these positions she paved the way for women as scientists and as academic leaders. The issues facing women scientists throughout their careers are of particular concern to Professor Arnon, and so she agreed to chair the Council for Higher Education’s Committee to Further Women in Israel’s Institutions of Higher Education. The committee found that the major obstacle to the advancement of women’s careers was the necessity to travel abroad for postdoctoral training. Without this experience on their curriculum vitae, they found themselves at a significant disadvantage as opposed to their male counterparts. Often they were hindered from traveling because their spouses couldn’t take the required time off from their careers, or couldn’t find employment abroad to provide the necessary supplement for their young families’ needs. Some of the women researchers are single mothers. Funding daycare for young children abroad is another expense not covered by the various postdoctoral fellowships. The Arnon Committee made several recommendations, one of which was to seek additional financial assistance for women’s postdoctoral training abroad. In 2016, setting an example to her cohorts and the system, Professor Arnon donated out of her own pocket to establish a fellowship fund under the auspices of the Israel Academy for alumnae of the Academy’s Adams Fellowships Program.

  • Constructing the Legitimacy of Research Commercialization
    Mythologizing the story of a scientific invention: Constructing the legitimacy of research commercialization Adi Sapir, Department of Leadership and Policy in Education, Faculty of Education, University of Haifa, Israel. EGOS 2018 Sub-theme 48: More to Talk About: Unexpected Roles of Language in Organizing This paper explores the processes through which an organizational story acquires mythological status within an organizational field. To this end, I analyze a story of a successful case of academic technology transfer that gained mythological status in the field of higher education in Israel: the commercialization of the innovative pharmaceutical drug Copaxone. I identify three processes of myth-making: organizational storytelling, media diffusion and reconstruction, and field-level counter-narratives. I argue that myth-making is a collective work, in which an organizational story is shaped not only through the strategic rhetorical work of managers but also through interpretations and modifications by the media and later by other actors in the field. The myth of Copaxone, as it is currently told in the field of higher education in Israel, is a complex assemblage of the organizational story and various counter-stories. I further suggest that this myth not only serves to naturalize and reinforce academic patenting, but also provides a discursive space for reflections about the ambiguities inherent in academic commercialization. Introduction This paper explores the work of mythologizing, the process through which an organizational story acquires mythological status within an organizational field. Myths are widely shared stories, often partial and distorted, that nevertheless convey an “illusion of reality” (Rawlins, 2014, p. 455). Extensive literature has shown that myths pervade organizational life (e.g.
