Cross-generational legacy | I-Nan University's Centennial Celebration × Nobel laureates' youth forum


At this important moment of National Ilan University's centennial celebration, the "Intergenerational Passion - A Symposium with Young Nobel Laureates," co-organized by the Nobel Prize International Cultural and Educational Exchange Association and Ilan University, was successfully completed yesterday.

Professor Michael Levitt, the 2013 Nobel Laureate in Chemistry, personally visited I-Nan University to share his vision on AI, life sciences, and the future world with young students. Academician Ming-Tao Tsai of Academia Sinica also participated in the dialogue. What was impressive was not only the lecture by a world-class scientist, but also the unforgettable scene of young students asking questions and exchanging ideas directly with Professor Michael Levitt and Academician Ming-Tao Tsai in English.

From Nobel laureates and academicians of Academia Sinica to university and high school students, engaging in natural dialogue within the same setting—this is precisely the kind of international exchange that the Nobel Prize has long hoped to promote in Taiwan. The Nobel Prize firmly believes that what truly matters is not just inviting world-class scientists to Taiwan, but rather empowering Taiwan's younger generation with the courage, ability, and vision to engage in dialogue with the world.

We thank National Ilan University for collaborating with the Nobel Prize to complete this intergenerational international scientific exchange at this important moment of its centennial celebration.
