DOCTOR OF SCIENCE

Prof. Uğur Şahin, MD Chief Executive Officer, BioNTech SE Citation by

Miriam Merad, MD, PhD Director, Mount Sinai Precision Immunology Institute Mount Sinai Professor in Cancer Immunology Samuel Bronfman Department of Medicine and Department of Oncological Sciences Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Professor Uğur Şahin, MD, Co-Founder and CEO of BioNTech, is a trained physician, a professor of Translational Oncology and Immunology at the University of Mainz and a Helmholtz Professor focused on mRNA immunotherapy, academic researcher, and entrepreneur.

Working with his spouse Professor Özlem Türeci, MD, BioNTech’s Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer, since the late 1990s, Şahin has accomplished a series of fundamental advances in the field of mRNA vaccines. Their work, including the creation of the first mRNA drug, has had a transformative impact on medicine. Professors Şahin and Türeci substantially improved mRNA translation, addressing the long-standing challenge of low mRNA stability and potency. They discovered and leveraged specific uptake mechanisms of mRNA by immune cells to boost vaccine effectiveness, leading to the first human trials of nanoparticulate mRNA vaccines and the development of highly potent vaccines for human use. Their pioneering work on neoantigen mRNA vaccines laid the foundation for personalized cancer vaccines, enabling therapies tailored to each patient’s distinct cancer mutation profile.

Under Professor Şahin’s leadership as CEO, BioNTech has achieved remarkable successes, most notably the development of BNT162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech's COVID-19 vaccine), the first-ever approved mRNA product, distributed worldwide, which has been instrumental in combating the COVID-19 pandemic.

Professor Şahin serves as a professor of Translational Oncology & Immunology at Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz, Germany, where he mentored more than 50 PhD students during his career and remains committed to training the next generation of scientists. He also holds the role of Chairman of the Scientific Management Board of the Helmholtz Institute for Translational Oncology (HI-TRON). Before BioNTech, Professor Şahin also co-founded Ganymed Pharmaceuticals, now a subsidiary of Astellas Pharma, with Professor Türeci and immunologist Dr. Christoph Huber in 2001 which focused on a new class of cancer drugs called ideal monoclonal antibodies and later as part of Astellas Pharma developed antibody zolbetuximabto treat esophageal and gastric cancer.

AWARDING OF HONORARY DEGREES The son of Turkish immigrants to Germany, Professor Şahin studied medicine at the University of Cologne where he received his doctorate in 1992 with a thesis on immunotherapy against tumor cells. He later studied mathematics at the Fernuniversität Hagen and worked as a physician in internal medicine and hematology/oncology at the University Hospital of Cologne and Saarland University Hospital. In 2000, he joined the University Medical Center Mainz. Professor Şahin contributed to more than 950 international patents and has received numerous prestigious awards, honorary degrees, and recognitions for his work.

Professor Uğur Şahin is a pioneering immune engineer who seeks ways to leverage the body’s own ability to find and fight disease when the immune system is otherwise unable to fight it. This vision and focus changed the trajectory of a global pandemic and will continue to transform the health of countless people around the world.

DOCTOR OF SCIENCE

Prof. Özlem Türeci, MD Chief Medical Officer, BioNTech SE Citation by

Peter Palese, PhD Horace W. Goldsmith Professor of Medicine and Chair, Department of Microbiology Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Professor Özlem Türeci, MD, Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer of BioNTech, is a trained physician, academic researcher, and entrepreneur. Her early work made contributions to identifying human tumor antigens, developing monoclonal antibody therapies against novel targets, and creating clinical-stage personalized cancer immunotherapies based on non-synonymous mutations identified through nextgeneration sequencing. Professor Türeci's contributions to the mRNA vaccine field include scientific groundwork, discoveries, technology development, translational and clinical research as well as the development and regulatory approval of the first approved mRNA drug. She and her partner, Professor Uğur Şahin, MD, overcame the challenge of poor mRNA potency through independent optimizations of structural elements in the mRNA scaffold and pioneering nanoparticulate mRNA vaccines, improving their potency and enabling their successful human use.

Born in Siegen, Germany, Professor Türeci is the daughter of a surgeon and biologist who immigrated to Germany from Türkiye. She studied medicine at Saarland University in Homburg, received her doctorate from the Medical Faculty of Saarland in 1992, and was a Heisenberg fellow of the German Research Foundation, where her research focused mainly on the identification and characterization of tumor-specific molecules and the development of immunotherapies against cancer. In 2002, she completed her habilitation qualification in molecular medicine at the University Medical Center of the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz. While completing her final year of studies, Türeci met her future partner, Professor Şahin, who was working at Saarland University Hospital in Homburg, with whom she shared the scientific interest in harnessing the body’s immune system to fight cancer.

Before she became a co-founding member of BioNTech, Professor Türeci previously served as CEO and Chief Medical Officer of Ganymed Pharmaceuticals, now a subsidiary of Astellas Pharma, which she co-founded with Professor Şahin and her mentor, immunologist Dr. Christoph Huber in 2001. Ganymed focused on a new class of cancer drugs called ideal monoclonal antibodies and developed a drug to treat esophageal and gastric cancer. She was chief scientific officer from 2001 to 2008 and then chief executive officer from 2008 to 2016. Professor Türeci is also a professor of Personalized lmmunotherapy at the University Medical Center Mainz and the Helmholtz Institute for Translational Oncology Mainz (HI-TRON) and currently serves as President of the Association for Cancer lmmunotherapy (CIMT) in Germany.

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.

OATH FOR DOCTORAL CANDIDATES

OATH FOR MEDICAL DEGREE CANDIDTES

With my Doctor of Philosophy, I willingly pledge to uphold the highest levels of integrity, professionalism, scholarship and honor.

HIPPOCRATIC OATH (MODERN VERSION) I swear to fulfill, to the best of my ability and judgment, this covenant:

I will conduct my research and professional endeavors with honesty and objectivity.

I will apply the highest standards of rigor and respect for the generation and application of knowledge, and fully acknowledge the contributions of others.

I will not allow financial gain or ambition to cloud my judgment or decision-making nor cause harm to society or subjects of research.

I will embark on the furthering of knowledge through respectful interaction and collaboration with my colleagues and community, without prejudice or exclusion.

I will be a role model, and use my skills to inspire, mentor and empower future generations, instilling in them the highest principles of ethical behavior.

As witnessed by all present today, and in the tradition of Graduates before me, I do affirm to uphold these guiding principles.

I will respect the hard-won scientific gains of those physicians in whose steps I walk, and gladly share such knowledge as is mine with those who are to follow.

I will apply, for the benefit of the sick, all measures which are required, avoiding those twin traps of overtreatment and therapeutic nihilism.

I will remember that there is art to medicine as well as science, and that warmth, sympathy, and understanding may outweigh the surgeon’s knife or the chemist’s drug.

I will not be ashamed to say “I know not,” nor will I fail to call in my colleagues when the skills of another are needed for a patient’s recovery.

I will respect the privacy of my patients, for their problems are not disclosed to me that the world may know. Most especially must I tread with care in matters of life and death. If it is given me to save a life, all thanks. But it may also be within my power to take a life; this awesome responsibility must be faced with great humbleness and awareness of my own frailty. Above all, I must not play at God. I will remember that I do not treat a fever chart, a cancerous growth, but a sick human being, whose illness may affect the person’s family and economic stability. My responsibility includes these related problems, if I am to care adequately for the sick.

I will prevent disease whenever I can, for prevention is preferable to cure.

I will attend to my own health, well-being, and abilities in order to provide care of the highest standard.

I will remember that I remain a member of society, with special obligations to all my fellow human beings, those sound of mind and body as well as the infirm.

If I do not violate this oath, may I enjoy life and art, respected while I live and remembered with affection thereafter. May I always act so as to preserve the finest traditions of my calling and may I long experience the joy of healing those who seek my help.

Originally written in 1964 by Dr. Louis Lasagna, Academic Dean of the School of Medicine at Tufts University, and used in many medical schools today.
