【諾貝爾獎得主講座系列 第二場次 成大遇見諾貝爾|生命科學 × 永續:未來的啟示】

  • 時間:2026  3  6 日(五) 下午 2 時至 4 
  • 地點:國立成功大學光復校區 成功廳
  • 主題氧氣、二氧化碳與地球上的永續生命
  • 講者格雷格·塞門薩 教授 (2019年諾貝爾生理醫學獎得主)

格雷格·塞門薩教授是約翰霍普金斯大學醫學院的遺傳醫學教授,他因發現細胞如何適應氧氣濃度的變化,以及對低氧誘導因子(HIFs)的開創性發現,於 2019 年獲頒諾貝爾生理醫學獎。塞門薩教授的卓越研究成果為開發阻斷低氧誘導因子活性的藥物奠定了基礎,進而能切斷腫瘤生長所需的氧氣供應。此外,低氧誘導因子的發現也促成了刺激低氧誘導因子活性藥物的開發,用以增加貧血患者體內的紅血球產量,對現代醫學產生深遠的影響。塞門薩教授學養深厚,擁有哈佛大學獲得生物學學士學位、賓州大學醫學博士學位以及遺傳學博士學位,並在杜克大學醫學中心完成小兒科住院醫師訓練,之後在約翰霍普金斯大學醫學院從事醫學遺傳學的博士後研究。他整個職業生涯深耕於約翰霍普金斯大學,是該校細胞工程研究所 (Institute for Cell Engineering) 血管研究計畫 (The Vascular Biology Program)以及阿姆斯壯氧氣生物學研究中心 (Armstrong Oxygen Biology Research Center) 的創始主任。

Nobel Laureate Lecture Series Session II - NCKU Meets NobelLife Sciences × Sustainability: Insights for the Future

  • Time: March 6, 2026 (Fri.) 2 PM - 4 PM
  • Venue: Cheng Kung Hall, Kuang-Fu Campus, National Cheng Kung University
  • Topic: Oxygen, carbon dioxide, and sustainable life on Earth
  • Speaker: Prof. Gregg L. Semenza, 2019 Nobel Laureate in Physiology or Medicine

Professor Gregg Leonard Semenza is a Professor of Genetic Medicine at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2019 for uncovering how cells adapt to changing oxygen levels and for his ground-breaking discovery of hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs). His research has paved the way for the development of drugs that block HIF activity and thereby cut off the supply of oxygen a tumor needs to grow. The discovery of HIFs has also led to the development of drugs that stimulate HIF activity to increase red blood cell production in patients with anemia, exerting a profound influence on modern medicine. Professor Semenza possesses an extensive academic background. He earned his bachelor’s degree in biology at Harvard University, then M.D. and Ph.D. (in genetics) from the University of Pennsylvania and a pediatric residency at Duke University Medical Center, before pursuing postdoctoral studies in medical genetics at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. He has remained at Johns Hopkins for the duration of his career, serving as Founding Director of the Vascular Biology Program at the Johns Hopkins Institute for Cell Engineering and Founding Director of the Armstrong Oxygen Biology Research Center.
