表彰致辞
Miriam Merad，医学博士，哲学博士
西奈山精密免疫学研究所主任 西奈山癌症免疫学教授
Samuel Bronfman 医学系和肿瘤学系 西奈山伊坎医学院
U ğ ur Ş ahin 教授（医学博士，BioNTech 的联合创始人兼首席执行官）是一名训练有素的 医生，美因茨大学 (University of Mainz) 转化肿瘤学和免疫学教授以及专注于 mRNA 免 疫疗法的亥姆霍兹教授、学术研究人员和企业家。
自 20 世纪 90 年代末以来，Ş ahin 与其配偶 Özlem Türeci 教授（医学博士，BioNTech 的 联合创始人兼首席医务官）携手合作，在 mRNA 疫苗领域取得了一系列重大进展。他们 的工作（包括发明第一种 mRNA 药物）已经对医学产生了变革性的影响。Ş ahin 和 Türeci 教授大大改善了 mRNA 转译，解决了长期存在的 mRNA 稳定性和效力低的挑战。他们发
现并利用免疫细胞对 mRNA 的特殊吸收机制来提高疫苗有效性，从而实现了纳米颗粒 mRNA 疫苗的首次人体试验，并开发了供人类使用的高效疫苗。他们在新抗原 mRNA 疫 苗方面的开拓性工作为个体化癌症疫苗奠定了基础，实现了针对每位患者不同癌症突变 特征量身定制的疗法。
在 Ş ahin 教授担任首席执行官的领导下，BioNTech 取得了举世瞩目的成就，其中最引 人注目的是 BNT162b2（Pfizer-BioNTech 的 COVID-19 疫苗）的开发，这是首次获批的 mRNA 产品，在世界各地分销，在对抗 COVID-19 疫情方面发挥了重要作用。
Ş ahin 教授担任德国美因茨约翰内斯古腾堡大学 (Johannes Gutenberg University) 的转 化肿瘤学与免疫学教授，在其职业生涯期间为 50 多名哲学博士生提供了指导，并一直致 力于培养下一代科学家。他还担任亥姆霍兹转化肿瘤学研究所 (Helmholtz Institute for Translational Oncology, HI-TRON) 科学管理委员会主席。在 BioNTech 之前，Ş ahin 教 授还与 Türeci 教授和免疫学家 Christoph Huber 博士于 2001 年共同创立了 Ganymed
Pharmaceuticals，现在是 Astellas Pharma 的子公司。该公司专注于一种称为理想单克隆 抗体的新型癌症药物，后来作为 Astellas Pharma 的一部分，开发了用于治疗食管癌和胃 癌的唑贝妥昔单抗。
9 2023 届毕业典礼
Ş ahin 教授是移民到德国的土耳其后裔，在科隆大学 (University of Cologne) 学习医学， 并于 1992 年获得博士学位，论文主题是针对肿瘤细胞的免疫疗法。后来，他在哈根函 授大学 (Fernuniversität Hagen) 学习数学，并在科隆大学医院 (University Hospital of Cologne) 和沙尔大学医院 (Saarland University Hospital) 担任内科和血液学/ 肿瘤学医 生。2000 年，他加入美因茨大学医学中心。Ş ahin 教授为 950 多项国际专利做出了贡 献，并获得了许多著名的奖项、荣誉学位以及对其工作的表彰。
U ğ ur Ş ahin 教授是一位开拓性的免疫工程师，他设法在免疫系统无法对抗疾病时利用人 体自身发现并对抗疾病的能力。此愿景和焦点改变了全球流行病的发展轨迹，并将继续 改变全世界无数人的健康状况。

Özlem Türeci 教授（医学博士，BioNTech 的联合创始人兼首席医务官）是一名训练有素 的医生、学术研究人员和企业家。她的早期工作在识别人类肿瘤抗原、开发针对新靶点的 单克隆抗体疗法以及基于通过新一代测序确定的非同义突变创建临床阶段个体化癌症 免疫疗法方面做出了贡献。Türeci 教授对 mRNA 疫苗领域的贡献包括科学基础、发现、 技术开发、转化和临床研究，以及首次获批的 mRNA 药物的开发和监管审批。她和她的 合作伙伴 U ğ ur Ş ahin 教授（医学博士）通过对 mRNA 支架结构元素进行独立优化和开拓
性纳米颗粒 mRNA 疫苗克服了 mRNA 效力低下的挑战，从而提高其效力并使其能够成 功用于人体。
Türeci 教授出生于德国锡根，父母是从土耳其移民到德国的外科医生和生物学家。她在 洪堡的沙尔大学 (Saarland University) 学习医学，1992 年获得沙尔医学院博士学位，是 德国研究基金会 (German Research Foundation) 的海森堡会员，她的研究主要集中在肿 瘤特异性分子的识别和表征以及癌症免疫疗法的开发。2002 年，她在美因茨约翰内斯古 腾堡大学 (Johannes Gutenberg University) 的大学医学中心完成了分子医学的任教资质 认证。在完成最后一年的学习期间，Türeci 遇到了她未来的合作伙伴 Ş ahin 教授，Ş ahin 当时在洪堡的沙尔大学医院工作，她和 Ş ahin 在利用人体免疫系统对抗癌症方面有着共 同的科学兴趣。
在成为 BioNTech 的联合创始成员之前，Türeci 教授曾担任 Ganymed Pharmaceuticals（ 现在是 Astellas Pharma 的子公司）的首席执行官兼首席医务官，她与 Ş ahin 教授及其 导师免疫学家 Christoph Huber 博士于 2001 年共同创立了该公司。Ganymed 专注于一 种叫做理想单克隆抗体的新型癌症药物，并开发出一种治疗食管癌和胃癌的药物。她
于 2001 年至 2008 年任首席科学官，然后于 2008 年至 2016 年任首席执行官。Türeci 教授还是美因茨大学医学中心和亥姆霍兹转化肿瘤学研究所 (Helmholtz Institute for Translational Oncology, HI-TRON) 的个体化免疫疗法教授，目前担任德国癌症免疫疗法 协会 (Association for Cancer lmmunotherapy, CIMT) 主席。
11 2023 届毕业典礼
Türeci 教授获得多项著名奖项、荣誉学位和表彰，包括德国可持续发展奖，她与她的合作 伙伴 U ğ ur Ş ahin 教授因在病毒基因序列公布后不到一年就生产出安全有效的 COVID-19 疫苗而被评为 2020 年《金融时报》(Financial Times) 的年度人物，这一成就被称为 “ 我们 时代最伟大的医学突破之一 ” 。
Özlem Türeci 教授加深了我们对人类免疫学的理解，并开发出有效的疗法，改变了全球 健康进程，并延长了全世界传染病、癌症以及免疫系统和神经系统疾病患者的生命。

List as of 3/20/23
ACADEMIC REGALIA
The caps and gowns worn by the participants in today’s Commencement exercises are patterned after the attire of scholars in the Middle Ages, when a warm gown and hood were needed for study in unheated buildings. While European institutions continue to show great diversity in their academic costume, an Intercollegiate Commission met in 1895 to standardize the style and color for robes and hoods to be worn at colleges and universities of the United States. Since then the costume code has been revised and clarified several times by the American Council on Education, most recently in 1986. The governing force, however, is tradition tracing back to the academic symbols of the Middle Ages.
Black gowns were originally recommended for all degrees at all institutions, with the style of the gown denoting the degree: pointed sleeves for Bachelor’s, long closed sleeves for Master’s, and full, round sleeves for the Doctor’s degrees. In addition, the Doctor’s gown was to be faced in black velvet down the front and with three bars of the same velvet across the sleeves. Some universities have begun to adopt more colorful robes. The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai robe is blue; other colors currently in use are violet for New York University, slate gray for Columbia, crimson for Harvard, blue for Yale.
Much information is represented by the colors of hoods worn by holders of doctoral and master’s degrees. The colors of the interior lining of the hood are those of the institution from which the degree was earned. The hood is bordered in velvet in a color that signifies the discipline of the degree: In the case of the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree, the dark blue color is used to represent the mastery of the discipline of learning and scholarship in any field and is not intended to solely represent the field of philosophy.
Members of the Board of Trustees at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai wear a specially designed costume.

我将尊重医学前辈历尽千辛万苦所获得的科学成果及医学知识。我也将十分乐意去传授 这些知识给我的后辈及未来的医生。
为了患者的利益，我将采取一切必要的诊断和治疗措施，避免两种不正当的倾向：即过度 治疗和无意义、无作用的治疗。
我将谨记医学不仅是理学，也是文学，而且医生对患者的爱心、同情心及理解有时比外科 医生的手术刀或药剂师的药物还重要。
我不懂时就要说 “ 我不知道 ”，我不应该为此感到羞愧。如果其他专业人士能治愈患者，我 会请求他们的帮助。
我将尊重患者隐私，我知道患者向我透露的实情不应让他人知道。尤其是在生死攸关的 问题上，我必须小心行事。如果经我治疗挽救了一条生命，我会感谢所有帮助过我的人。 如果患者经我治疗无效而死亡，这个非常重大的责任应当促使我虚心检讨我自己的不 足。尤为重要的是，我是医生但不是上帝。
我将谨记，我不是在治疗一张患者发烧记录图，也不是恶性肿瘤，而是一个活生生的人。 他的病可能会影响到他的家人以及造成沉重的家庭经济负担。我的责任是要考虑到所有 这些问题。这样做，才是真正替患者着想。
我将尽可能地参与预防疾病工作。因为预防永远胜过治疗。
我将关注自己的健康、福祉和能力，这样才能为患者提供最高标准的护理。
我将谨记我永远是社会的一员。我对全体人类同胞， 无论是身心健康的人还是体弱的人，都肩负特殊的责任。
我会遵循我的誓言，这样我会生活和行医愉快。我活着的时候希望得到世人尊重，我离开 人世以后希望世人记住我的善举。对于来求助于我的患者，我一定要拿出我最精湛的医 术，当看到他们身体康复的时候我会倍感愉快。
