1 41st Annual thursday / march 29, 2012 Presentation Ceremony Lewis S. Rosenstiel award for distinguished work in basic medical science brandeis university
2 In 1971, the Lewis S. Rosenstiel Award for Distinguished Work in Basic Medical Science was established as an expression of the conviction that educational institutions have an important role to play in the encouragement and development of basic science as it applies to medicine.
3 Medals are presented annually at Brandeis University on the basis of recommendations from a panel of outstanding scientists selected by the Rosenstiel Basic Medical Sciences Research Center. Awards are given to scientists for recent discoveries of particular originality and importance to basic medical science research. A $30,000 prize accompanies the award. Since its inception, Brandeis University has placed great emphasis on basic science and its relationship to medicine. With the establishment of the Rosenstiel Basic Medical Sciences Research Center, made possible by the generosity of Lewis S. Rosenstiel in 1968, research in basic medical science at Brandeis has been expanded significantly. These awards provide
4 a way to extend the center s support beyond the campus community. The winner of the 2012 Lewis S. Rosenstiel Award for Distinguished Work in Basic Medical Science is Nahum Sonenberg, professor in the Department of Biochemistry at McGill University, Montreal. He was chosen for his discoveries of the mechanisms by which translational control regulates gene expression and plays roles in cancer, development, memory, innate immunity and virus infections. These discoveries, which dramatically changed thinking about translational control under physiological conditions and in disease, pave the way for development of novel drugs to cure human disease.

7 2012 Award Winner Nahum Sonenberg Nahum Sonenberg received a Ph.D. at the Weizmann Institute of Science (Rehovot, Israel). He then joined the Roche Institute of Molecular Biology in Nutley, N.J., with a Chaim Weizmann postdoctoral fellowship. He moved to McGill University in Montreal in 1979, and today he is a James McGill Professor in the Department of Biochemistry and deputy director of the Rosalind and Morris Goodman Cancer Research Centre. Sonenberg s primary research interests have been in the field of translational control. With Aaron Shatkin he identified the mrna 5 cap-binding protein, eif4e, in He and his colleagues have studied the factors that recruit ribosomes to the mrna. He discovered the IRES mechanism of translation initiation in eukaryotes and the regulation of cap-dependent translation by eif4e-binding proteins. He also discovered that eif4e is a proto-oncogene, whose protein levels are elevated in tumors. Subsequently, he showed that rapamycin (an anticancer drug) inhibits eif4e activity. While generating eif4e binding protein knock-out mice, he found the protein plays important roles in metabolism, learning and memory, and innate immunity.
8 In 2002, Sonenberg was awarded the Robert L. Noble Prize from the National Cancer Institute of Canada (now the Canadian Cancer Society Research Institute). He is an international research scholar of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and has been a fellow of the Royal Society of Canada since He was awarded the 2005 Killam Prize for Health Sciences, and in 2006, he was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the Royal Society of the United Kingdom. He was awarded the 2007 Katharine Berkan Judd Award from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, the 2007 Roche Diagnostics Award and the 2008 Gairdner International Award. In 2009, he was awarded the Canadian Institutes of Health Research Health Researcher of the Year Award in Biomedical and Clinical Research. In 2010 he was made an officer of the Order of Canada. In 2011, Sonenberg received the Centenary Award from the Biochemical Society in the United Kingdom.
9 2012 Speaker Phillip A. Sharp A world leader of research in molecular biology and biochemistry, Phillip A. Sharp is an institute professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Much of Sharp s scientific work has been conducted at MIT s Center for Cancer Research (now the Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research), which he joined in 1974 and directed from 1985 to He subsequently led the Department of Biology from 1991 to 1999 before assuming the directorship of the McGovern Institute from 2000 to His research interests have centered on the molecular biology of gene expression relevant to cancer and the mechanisms of RNA splicing. His landmark achievement was the discovery of RNA splicing in This work provided one of the first indications of the startling phenomenon of discontinuous genes in mammalian cells. The discovery that genes contain nonsense segments that are edited out by cells in the course of utilizing genetic information is important in understanding the genetic causes of cancer and other diseases. This discovery, which fundamentally changed scientists understanding of the structure of genes, earned Sharp the 1993 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. His lab now has turned its attention to understanding how RNA molecules act as switches to turn genes on and off (RNA interference). These newly discovered processes have revolutionized cell biology and could potentially generate a new class of therapeutics.
10 Sharp has authored more than 385 scientific papers. He has received numerous awards and honorary degrees and has served on many advisory boards for the government, academic institutions, scientific societies and companies. His awards include the Gairdner Foundation International Award; the General Motors Cancer Research Foundation s Alfred P. Sloan Jr. Prize for Cancer Research; the Albert Lasker Basic Medical Research Award; the National Medal of Science; and the inaugural Double Helix Medal from Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. He is an elected member of the National Academy of Sciences, the Institute of Medicine, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and the American Philosophical Society, and he is a foreign fellow of the Royal Society of the United Kingdom. A native of Kentucky, Sharp earned a B.A. from Union College in Kentucky in 1966 and a Ph.D. in chemistry from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, in He completed postdoctoral training at the California Institute of Technology, where he studied the molecular biology of plasmids from bacteria in Professor Norman Davidson s laboratory. Prior to joining MIT, he was senior scientist at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. In 1978 Sharp co-founded Biogen (now Biogen Idec), and in 2002 he co-founded Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, an early-stage therapeutics company.
