Dear Students,
We are honoured to have been invited by The Knowledge Management Team of the Human Medicines Division of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) to a virtual chat with Dr Drew Weissman. Dr Weissman was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2023 jointly with Katalin Karikó for their groundbreaking work on modifying nucleosides, which paved the way for the development of effective mRNA vaccines against COVID-19.
This live-streamed event hosted at THUAS by Dr Tokaji-Nagy, EU PAC coordinator (Law), will take place on:
Tuesday, 2 July from 4:30 - 6:00 PM, in Room SL3.66
It will start with opening remarks by Emer Cooke (Executive Director), followed by Dr. Weissman’s lecture and a Q&A session.
Submit your questions before the event:
Before the event, you can submit questions for Dr Weissman through Slido, a moderated audience interaction tool. You can also upvote questions submitted by other participants. The code for Slido is #6123314 and the passcode is l9mczw. Upvoted questions are more likely to be chosen during the Q&A.
Participation is voluntary, and using Slido is entirely optional. You can choose to remain anonymous during the event. If you choose to use Slido, you consent to the processing of your personal data as explained in the EMA Data Privacy Statement for Slido. We have also enclosed our Webex Data Protection Notice for your reference.
The event will be recorded, and if approved by Dr. Weissman, published on the EMA LinkedIn and YouTube channels. This means that your personal data is not going to be used for anything else but the registration.
To pique your curiosity further, head over to the Nobel Prize Dashboard. There, you can interact with charts to uncover trends about Nobel Prize wins from gender, and location to different topics.
We look forward to your participation!
