張智芬教授勇奪傑出獎!核酸醫學研究轉化癌症治療新契機

現任臺灣大學醫學院分子醫學研究所講座教授的張智芬博士,此次以深耕核酸醫學領域的傑出貢獻榮獲最高榮譽「傑出獎」。張博士的研究核心聚焦於核苷酸、DNA修復,以及粒線體在細胞壓力與老化過程中的品質監控角色,深入探討細胞如何在內外逆境下維持基因體完整性。她更在台大醫學院成立核酸藥物中心,設置寡核酸合成及分析平台,導入新穎性小分子核酸治療藥物,成功將醫學研究發現轉化為治療方法,為癌症醫學研究揭開強力而充滿前景的新頁。

張博士於美國密西根癌症研究中心完成博士後訓練後返台,一路從長庚大學、台大醫學院、陽明交大到再度回到台大,她深入探索核酸代謝及細胞骨架動態在癌症生物學的應用,近年更專注研究失能粒線體如何影響核基因體的損傷修復機制。她的研究成果不僅在國際核苷酸、DNA修復、粒線體領域享有盛名,更定期在國際學術會議發表演講,曾榮獲三次國科會傑出獎、教育部學術獎與國家講座等重要殊榮。

哲學美學養成的科學家!從看棒球賽中領悟「問對問題」的研究哲學

令人驚喜的是,張智芬博士自幼享受音樂美術薰陶,高中時期更熱愛觀看棒球賽事,一直是運動好手。她深信科學與人文並非彼此對立,哲學、藝術與科學思維之間其實存在高度共通性。「科學研究關鍵從來不是問多少問題,而是能不能問關鍵的問題!」張博士強調,對世界的理解來自於「問對問題」,不需要在中小學課業學習操之過急,反而應該培養品味與思考能力。

身為女性科學家,張博士並不感受到性別差異帶來的限制,她認為女性有可以做得很好的優勢。她鼓勵想投入科研的女性保持樂觀和開放心態,不斷回到問題本身,反覆思考關鍵問題,從中發現新的視角與可能性,慢慢建立屬於自己的研究節奏,就能有所成就。張博士認為細胞內的分子運行如同一個小宇宙,複雜度非常高但有其運行規則,研究者要用好奇的靈魂去探索及創新,而非先知的態度去發現真理的奧秘。

程吉安博士獲新秀獎!跨域胞外體工程推進癌症精準醫學

臺灣大學藥學系暨研究所助理教授程吉安博士,以在奈米生醫與精準醫學領域的卓越表現榮獲「新秀獎」。作為國內少數同時橫跨化學、生醫工程與臨床應用的跨域年輕女科學家,程博士帶領實驗室成功建立首套胞外體功能轉譯平台,針對腫瘤來源胞外體(Extracellular Vesicle,簡稱:EV)面臨的「稀缺性」與「高異質性」兩大挑戰提出整合策略,並成功應用於癌症臨床檢體。

目前程博士專注於腫瘤EV蛋白空間與功能鑑定,並以工程化手法將其客製化,致力打造屬於台灣在地化的EV品質管控與藥物載體平台,積極推動胞外體於癌症診斷治療與精準醫學的轉譯應用。她的研究不僅具備高度創新性,更具有實際的臨床轉譯價值,為台灣癌症精準醫學發展注入強大動能。

從半導體工程師重回科研夢!非典型女科學家的精彩人生曠野

程吉安博士的求學歷程充滿驚喜轉折,她從化學出身,在放膽自由探索下曾一度脫離學術領域,進入半導體和專利業工作。直到在探索旅途中發現學術研究是讓她「眼神發光」的熱愛後,才再度赴國外跨入對她來說陌生卻有趣的生物工程及臨床領域,並分別完成博士與博士後訓練。這段非典型的科學家養成路徑,讓她成為與眾不同的研究者。

「人生是曠野而非軌道,不必一次就找對方向,可以勇於探索、刪去不適合的選項,留下那些能讓自己眼神發光的事!」程博士以自身經驗勉勵年輕學子,相信每一個安排都是最棒的安排。對她而言,每一次自我挑戰或轉換都象徵在人生曠野中多了一次在新土地上探索的機會,過程中的不舒適感讓她感受到「淋漓盡致地活著」的感覺,成果則是全力以赴的副產物。為了有熱情的事情而努力、衝撞跌倒後靠自己的力量站起來繼續往前走,這股自我主導的能量充滿生命力,也讓她從不是很有自信的女孩轉變成自信的高能量女性。

袁維謙博士創歷史紀錄!13年後再獲新秀獎的雙料得主

陽明交通大學生命科學系暨基因體科學研究所助理教授袁維謙博士,創下「台灣傑出女科學家獎」成立以來的歷史紀錄,成為首位兩度獲得肯定的得主!她於2012年博士班期間即以亮眼研究榮獲第一屆「孟粹珠獎學金」,今年再以優異成就獲頒「新秀獎」,展現持續深耕科研的堅韌實力與傑出成果。

袁博士在陽明交通大學建立獨立研究團隊,涵蓋生物化學、分子與細胞生物學、腫瘤生物學及幹細胞生物學等關鍵領域。她帶領研究團隊找到多個參與肝細胞再生與肝腫瘤生成的重要基因與訊息傳遞路徑,不僅深化對YAP(Yes-associated protein)生物功能的理解,亦揭示多項具潛力的新穎治療標的,對肝癌與肝臟相關疾病治療領域具關鍵推動意義。

解析腫瘤惡化分子機制!袁博士開展肝癌治療與細胞再生新頁

袁維謙博士領導陽明交通大學與哈佛大學的國際研究團隊,成功找出促使肝細胞重新編成的分子機制,為未來肝臟修復與再生治療提供嶄新方向。她的研究專精於解析驅動腫瘤惡化與組織再生的分子機制,並致力發展具臨床轉譯潛力的創新治療策略,為台灣在肝臟癌症與再生醫學領域展開充滿前景的新契機。

袁博士非常感謝「台灣傑出女科學家獎」在學生時期給予的肯定激勵,一路受到女科學家前輩鼓勵,引領她堅定於科研道路前行。她曾於國外求學時,在實驗室數度面對實驗鼠的手術失敗感到焦慮和懷疑,身處各國眾多頂尖同儕更倍感壓力,但她鼓起勇氣主動發問、不斷從發問中學習來克服困難、開展自信。育有兩名幼兒的她表示,雖然育兒增加新的角色和負擔,但也更激發工作效率的提升,相信女科學家能找到合宜的家庭與工作兼顧方式。

陳叡怡獲孟粹珠獎學金!從神經生理解析脊髓損傷治療契機

國立中山大學生物科學系博士班陳叡怡同學榮獲「孟粹珠獎學金」,她的研究專長聚焦於呼吸與心血管神經生理學、血流動力學調控、臨床前脊髓損傷動物模式研究。陳同學在動物研究中證實,頸部脊髓損傷不僅會造成心肺功能的長期受損,亦會破壞脊髓微循環,並導致延髓─脊髓交感血管運動調控路徑相關的神經化學標記顯著降低(如5-HT、DBH、VGLUT2與GAD)。

進一步研究顯示,在脊髓損傷急性期給予臨床用藥調控周邊血壓,不僅能顯著促進呼吸功能及脊髓血流灌注,亦能有效減緩脊髓內出血,且抑制促發炎相關基因表現。這些重要研究成果已陸續發表學術論文,並刊登於頂尖國際學術期刊,展現清晰的學術輪廓與發展潛力,為脊髓損傷的治療與復健開啟新的可能性。
