Turkish scientist's discovery of how proteins work

ards also recognize the following regional winners:

Nieng Yan (North America): For her essay, "Mechanisms of Programmed Cell Death in Caenorhabditis elegans." Yan was born in Jinan, China, in 1977 and grew up in Beijing. As an undergraduate at Tsinghua University, she developed a strong interest in science and was also deeply influenced by Beijings unique civil milieu. After receiving a bachelors degree in biology in 2000, she traveled to New Jersey to pursue graduate training in the Department of Molecular Biology at Princeton University. Under the guidance of Yigong Shi, she used structural biology and biochemistry techniques to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of cell death regulation. Yan received her Ph.D. degree in December 2004 and is completing research projects in Shis lab. Her goal is to continue in an academic career.

Marina Aspholm (Europe): For her essay, "Adaptation of Helicobacter pylori Adherence Properties in Promotion of Host Tropism and Inflammatory Disease." Aspholm comes from Kiruna, Sweden, a city famous for an ice hotel that is constructed anew each winter. She studied chemistry and molecular biology at Ume University and received a masters of science degree in 1998, remaining there for Ph.D. studies through a fellowship from the Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research. Under the guidance of Thomas Born, she examined how the gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori adapts its adherence properties to fit predominant patterns of gastric mucosal cell surface glycosylation, collaborating with Douglas Bergs group at Washington University, St. Louis, Mo. She defended her Ph.D. thesis in 2004. She holds a long-term fellowship from the European Molecular Biology Organization and is a research scientist in the laboratory of Michael Koomey at the University of Oslo, Norway.

Rikinari Hanayama (Japan): For his essay, "Impaired Phagocytosis of Apoptotic Cells and Development of Autoimmune
