Israeli hospital populations are uniquely diverse, featuring a broader representation of Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and North African ancestries compared to the predominantly European descent seen in Western medical datasets

Significant genetic diversity resulting from centuries of admixture and migrations, alongside distinct cultural and dietary practices that influence health outcomes

Israeli hospitals often treat underrepresented groups such as Ethiopian Jews and Bedouins, who are rarely included in Western datasets, making Israeli data especially valuable for addressing health disparities and genetic conditions

In Israel, a lot of the population consists of Orthodox families and families with many children. These groups contribute valuable insights into genetic inheritance patterns, pediatric health trends, and familial health dynamics that are less common in Western populations
