Immigration, Acculturation and Hypertension 2021

Welcome Letter from Prof. Talma Rosenthal - Conference Chairperson


It is our pleasure to announce the first Israel Conference on the Effects of the Acculturation Process on Population,
hosted by the Jewish Agency and the Israeli Medical Association .
The aim of this conference to raise awareness of the growing global health crisis ,
Even before Corona Virus , resulting from massive movement of populations from small rural agricultural economies to industrialized towns and cities .
These refugees’ migrants and immigrants have been and continue to leave their home country,
In search of a safe and stable home flocking in tremendous numbers to what has become termed the “host country” .
The Israel Conference on the Effects of the Acceleration Process on Population Health aims to call attention to what has become a matter of great importance to public health worldwide.
The detection and treatment of both infectious diseases such as Hepatitis C as well as undertreated Non communicable diseases including, hypertension ,diabetes hyperlipidemia and obesity, will be discussed and as it relates to acculturation and its impact on both the migrant population and host country.

This public health issue is of vital importance to all those involved in every aspect of health care- from primary health care providers to government institutions to the companies, such as yours, working to provide pharmaceutical solutions.

Mr. Isaac Herzog, Knesset member and Chair of the Executive at the Jewish Agency responsible for bringing many new immigrants to Israel, will be giving a special opening address to the researchers and professors .

I look forward for your timely response –(rtalma@tauex.tau.ac.il)
