Dear Teacher/Student,

Due to the overwhelming number of registrations for this lecture, the venue will be changed to the International Conference Hall, 16F, Comprehensive Medical Building(Rear Building)and added Online live broadcast in Shuang-Ho Campus, thank you.



Date: April 1, 113 (Monday) 16:00-17:30
Location:
Xinyi Campus: International Conference Hall, 16F, Comprehensive Medical Building(Rear Building)(physical speech)
Shuang-Ho Campus: Classroom 9703, 7F, Biomedical Technology Building (online speech)
Registration website: http://event.tmu.edu.tw/actnews/signup.php?Sn=4923

PS: If you have registered for the physical session at Xinyi Campus, please continue to attend the physical lecture. If you need to change the venue, please inform Tracy Kang(m513097010@tmu.edu.tw). If you are not sure whether to register again, please refer to the attached list of participants for the physical meeting.

It is our pleasure to invite distinguished scholar, 2004 Nobel Prize in Chemistry laureate Prof. Aaron J. Ciechanover, to give a lecture at our university. Prof. Aaron J. Ciechanover, awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2004, is also an outstanding teacher at the "Center for Vascular and Cancer Research" and a distinguished faculty member at the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa, Israel. He obtained his master's degree in 1970, his medical degree from Hadassah and the Hebrew University Medical School in Jerusalem in 1974, and his PhD from the Technion in Israel in 1981.

Prof. Aaron J. Ciechanover was awarded the Nobel Prize for his discovery of one of the most important cyclic processes in biochemistry, the regulated degradation of proteins that constitute the regular breakdown of all plants, animals, and human bodies, in 2004. Prof. Aaron J. Ciechanover and his fellow laureates of the 2004 Nobel Prize have tirelessly researched cellular degradation for decades, discovering a molecule called ubiquitin. Proteins tagged by ubiquitin automatically proceed to the degradation pathway, leaving behind unmarked and better-functioning proteins selectively to continue to maintain their daily metabolic functions.

This opportunity to share is rare and allows us to interact closely with Nobel laureates, witnessing their brilliance firsthand! Don't miss it!
