Clore Garden of Science
Renovations have begun!
The Clore Garden of Science is currently undergoing extensive expansion and renovation to meet the ever-evolving needs of science education in this new technological era. It will remain a largely open-air, hands-on science museum with a pleasant, garden-like atmosphere, but its essential infrastructure will be expanded to handle significantly more visitors and will include several unique features such as science laboratories, learning spaces, a ‘MakeScience’ hub, an exhibition hall and more.
With a robust team of experts working to update, modernize, and seamlessly integrate the scientific exhibits with the site’s natural beauty, the Clore Garden of Science is poised to remain Israel’s premier interactive outdoor science museum.

The Plant Microbiome Project
First of its kind!
The Plant Microbiome Project is one of Davidson’s newest and most ambitious initiatives. A first-of-its-kind collaboration that teams Weizmann researchers and Davidson education experts with teachers and students from Israel and Jordan, this unique program is creating a complete library of the bacterial and fungal species in the region’s deserts.
You can learn more about this exciting initiative in this exclusive story that appeared in the Fall 2020 issue of the Weizmann magazine.
