:''(not to be confused with Elena Kagan, a 1960 b. American jurist)'' Helena Kagan ((ヘブライ語:הלנה כגן); September 25, 1889, Tashkent, Uzbekistan - September 25?, 1978, Jerusalem) was a physician, an Israeli pioneer in pediatrics, active in Jerusalem. She was responsible for the expansion of health care in Israel. Working under the auspices of the Hadassah organization, she gave treatment to generations of local children regardless of their parents' religious affiliation; she instructed both Jewish and Arabic nurses. In her later years, Kagan worked as adviser to the Ministry of Health while keeping the pediatric consulting work at home. She was awarded the Israel Prize in 1975 for the special contribution to society and the state in community service. The pediatric department of Bikur Holim Hospital and a community center in Katamonim, Jerusalem, bear her name since 1962 〔http://jpress.org.il/Default/Scripting/ArticleWin.asp?From=Archive&Skin=TAUHe&BaseHref=MAR/1962/06/13&EntityId=Ar00822&ViewMode=HTML〕 and 1968 respectively. ==See also== *List of Israel Prize recipients *Health care in Israel * Dr.Vera Weizmann 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Helena Kagan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
