I’m honored to have been awarded the Ernst Th. Jucker Prize 🏅 for our work advancing Precision Medicine – with this I join a fantastic list of past awardees. At the risk of being repetitive, I have my amazing team to thank for this cool award- thank you snijderlab members past and present 🙏!
The prize, named after Dr. Ernst Th. Jucker, honors outstanding contributions to cancer research. Dr. Ernst Jucker was a practicing physician and surgeon in the municipality of Thalwil in the canton of Zurich. He and his wife Alice transferred their inheritance to a foundation that provides an annual sum to the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Zurich (Ernst Jucker’s alma mater) to fund the prize.
I’ll give a public lecture with the award ceremony on the 30th of June 2025 – join if you’re in the neighborhood and curious to hear more about our work:
