Tandralee Chetia selected to attend the 75th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting
The meeting provided opportunities to attend scientific lectures, panel discussions, workshops, and small-group interactions with Nobel laureates and fellow researchers from around the world. During the meeting, she interacted with Nobel laureates including Katalin Kariko, recipient of the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for discoveries enabling the development of effective mRNA vaccines, and Sir Gregory Winter, recipient of the 2018 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for the phage display of peptides and antibodies, a technology that revolutionized antibody-based therapeutics.
The program featured discussions on topics including the responsible use of artificial intelligence in science, ethics in scientific publishing, science for societal benefit, and translating fundamental laboratory discoveries into life-changing medicines. Chetia was also selected to participate in an exclusive small-group discussion with Angela Merkel, former Chancellor of Germany, on the theme of freedom of research. In addition, she was one of ten women selected to be featured in the Lindau Women in Research blog, where she shared her scientific journey and experiences as an early-career researcher.
