In a memorandum of understanding the Abu Dhabi Department of Health and Sheba Medical Center will enter into collaborations for the exchange of knowledge, best medical practices and methodologies.
The agreement will enable both sides to explore opportunities in the field of health and medical research. Both entities will also cooperate in conducting cutting-edge research and improving healthcare services for patients in several aspects, including telemedicine and the use of artificial intelligence.
"The DoH continues to devote its best efforts to improve healthcare sector outcomes and provide the most advanced healthcare services," Under-Secretary of Abu Dhabi’s Department of Health Dr. Al Kaabi said in the press release, "in line with the highest international standards, reflecting its keenness to establish effective partnerships with leading local and international medical institutions."
The agreement was made possible by the Abraham Accords signed between Israel, the United Arab Emirates, and the United States, reached on August 13, 2020. The agreement marked the first public normalization of relations between an Arab country and Israel since that of Egypt in 1979 and Jordan in 1994.
