🏫【 唐獎得主統計資料出爐 來自21所世界名校 哈佛以2成6居冠 】👑

2012年由潤泰集團尹衍樑博士創立的唐獎，今年6月剛評選出第六屆得獎人，面對廿一世紀挑戰，唐奬以永續發展為主體，過去12年，每屆評選委員會(由世界頂尖學者、專家組成) 從得主的創新、貢獻及影響力等面向，透過專業、公正、獨立的嚴格評選過程，合計選出39位唐獎得主（含3個非政府組織），已經塑定為兼顧自然及社會科學，重視人文的世界大獎。

統計歷屆唐獎得主的服務單位及畢業學校，大致均出自世界排名前百大的學術機構，其中，來自哈佛大學共有10位居冠，耶魯大學5位排名第二，牛津大學、加州大學柏克萊分校、加州大學聖地牙哥分校UCSD、哥倫比亞大學等四校均為4位，緊追在後，排名第三，劍橋大學3位排名第四，大阪大學2位排名第五，各有一位的還包括麻省理工學院、波士頓大學、加州大學洛杉磯分校UCLA、匹茲堡大學、蒙特婁大學、倫敦大學、哥本哈根大學、德國Max Planck Institute、台灣大學、京都大學、東京大學、新加坡大學、墨爾本大學等21所世界名校。

在性別方面，10位女性唐獎得主佔個人得主比例更高達28%，遠高於諾貝爾獎的6%。另外，值得一提是過去五屆唐獎生技醫藥獎得主中，有三屆幾年後再榮獲諾貝爾獎肯定。作為創立僅12年的世界大獎，唐獎的高度聲譽已不言而喻。

進一步分析唐獎四大獎項得主資料，永續發展奬以哈佛大學、耶魯大學、柏克萊大學等為優。在生技醫藥獎方面，以哈佛大學最優，但UC San Diego、牛津大學、賓州大學等也表現優異；漢學奬得主分佈較廣，以哈佛大學、耶魯大學為優，其他包括哥倫比亞大學、牛津大學、倫敦大學、東京大學、大阪大學、新加坡大學及2024得主許倬雲院士所畢業及從事教職的台灣大學等亦有傑出成績。法治獎項亦較為平均分佈，哈佛大學、耶魯大學、哥倫比亞大學、加拿大蒙特婁大學、牛津大學、愛爾蘭都柏林大學、澳洲墨爾本大學均有一位得主。

🏫【 Tang Prize Laureate Statistics Unveiled: 21 World-Renowned Universities Represented, Harvard Leads with 26%
】👑

Founded in 2012 by Dr. Samuel Yen-Liang Yin of the Ruentex Group, the Tang Prize recently announced its sixth cohort of laureates in June of this year. Focused on addressing the challenges of the 21st century, the Tang Prize emphasizes sustainable development. Over the past 12 years, the award's selection committees (comprising top scholars and experts worldwide) have meticulously chosen 39 laureates (including three non-governmental organizations) based on their innovation, contribution, and impact. The Tang Prize has solidified its position as a prestigious international award recognizing both natural and social sciences while valuing the humanities.

Statistics on the laureates' affiliations and alma maters reveal that they predominantly hail from the world's top 100 academic institutions. Harvard University leads with 10 laureates, followed by Yale University with 5. The University of Oxford, University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley), University of California, San Diego (UCSD), and Columbia University each have 4 laureates, closely followed by the University of Cambridge with 3, and Osaka University with 2. Other prestigious institutions with one laureate each include the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Boston University, University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), University of Pittsburgh, Université de Montréal, University of London, University of Copenhagen, Max Planck Institute (Germany), National Taiwan University, Kyoto University, University of Tokyo, National University of Singapore, and the University of Melbourne, for a total of 21 world-renowned universities.

Harvard University has the highest number of laureates, with a diverse distribution across the categories of Sustainable Development, Biopharmaceutical Science, and Sinology. Yale University has laureates in all categories except Sustainable Development, while Columbia University and UC Berkeley excel in the field of Sustainable Development.

The Tang Prize is also notable for its commitment to gender diversity, boasting a significantly higher percentage of female laureates (28%) than the Nobel Prize (6%). Furthermore, the Tang Prize's rigorous standards and impact are reflected in the fact that three of the past five Tang Prize Laureates in Biopharmaceutical Science went on to win the Nobel Prize in subsequent years. For an international award established just 12 years ago, the Tang Prize's reputation for recognizing groundbreaking work is clearly evident.

Further analysis of the four Tang Prize categories reveals that laureates in Sustainable Development primarily come from Harvard University, Yale University, and UC Berkeley. In Biopharmaceutical Science, Harvard University leads, followed by UC San Diego, Oxford University, and the University of Pennsylvania. The Tang Prize Laureates in Sinology represent a wider range of institutions, with Harvard and Yale leading, followed by Columbia University, Oxford University, University of London, University of Tokyo, Osaka University, National University of Singapore, and National Taiwan University (alma mater of the 2024 Tang Prize Laureate in Sinology Hsu Cho-yun). The Tang Prize Laureates in Rule of Law are relatively evenly distributed, with one each from Harvard University, Yale University, Columbia University, Université de Montréal (Canada), Oxford University, Trinity College Dublin (Ireland), and the University of Melbourne (Australia).

The Tang Prize is not limited to prestigious academic institutions. In 2020, the Rule of Law award was jointly presented to three non-governmental organizations: The Legal Agenda (Lebanon), Bangladesh Environmental Lawyers Association (BELA), and Dejusticia: The Center for Law, Justice and Society (Colombia). These organizations were recognized for their dedication to public education and advocacy, effectively promoting the rule of law and improving legal mechanisms. They skillfully draw on solid academic research and employ creative judicial strategies to fight for individual, social, and environmental justice in challenging environments, setting an example with significant impact. Thanks to them, the Tang Prize's reputation has reached the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and South America, with the 2020 award ceremony garnering over 620,000 views on Facebook.

👩‍🏫【 「唐獎講座」今於AAS-in-Asia二度登場 漢學獎得主羅森教授實體、線上同步開講 】🇮🇩

唐獎教育基金會繼去年6月，2020年唐獎漢學獎得主王賡武教授於亞洲研究學會(Association for Asian Studies, AAS)亞洲年會的「唐獎講座(Tang Prize Lecture)」演講，這週二(9)起至今(11)日連續三天於印尼日惹加查馬達大學（Gedung Pusat Universitas Gadjah Mada）舉辦的亞洲研究學會亞洲年會（AAS-in-Asia Conference 2024），再度邀請唐獎教育基金會舉辦唐獎講座，由2022年唐獎漢學獎得主，英國牛津大學中國藝術與考古教授潔西卡‧羅森（Jessica Rawson）以〈China’s Great Tombs and the Treasures They Have Revealed〉（中國大墓與其珍寶揭秘）為題壓軸主講，主辦單位更開放線上參與，讓更多人都能聆聽這場無與倫比的精彩演講。

亞洲研究學會亞洲年會（AAS-in-Asia Conference）是亞洲研究學界年度國際盛事，今年共有來自43個國家的1,500多名學者、學生、藝術家和專業人士出席。本次唐獎講座，主辦單位特別邀請美國亞利桑那州立大學歷史系麥金農（Stephen MacKinnon）榮休教授擔任主持人。羅森教授發表內容聚焦中國的墓葬傳統和珍貴的出土器物，討論中國古代有關來世的信仰和實踐，並強調文化和歷史背景的重要性。搭配羅森教授精心整理的豐富圖片，探索中國古代墓葬的工程和建築特徵，以及在墓葬中發現的文物，闡釋這些文物如何幫助我們瞭解中國古代社會的文化和信仰，並介紹她的最新力作《Life and Afterlife in Ancient China》（古代中國的生前與死後世界）對中國生死觀的探討。

唐獎教育基金會陳振川執行長表示，有83年歷史，總部位於美國密西根州的亞洲研究學會是全球規模最大的亞洲研究組織，唐獎漢學獎則是世界上漢學領域最具盛名的大獎，很榮幸雙方持續合作，舉辦唐獎講座，也很感謝漢學獎得主羅森教授在此盛暑，特別從英國飛往印尼，親自與上千名研究亞洲的各國學者互動與交流，讓更多人深入認識漢學，也發揮唐獎創置的功能。

今日演講，羅森教授從新石器時代（約西元前3,000年）至西元前三世紀的中原墓葬傳統展開論述。建於西元前三世紀的秦皇陵深達地下三十多米，可謂工程學的奇蹟；懾人的地下兵馬俑軍隊更是舉世聞名。繼之，漢代（西元前 206 年至西元 220 年）王陵亦是富麗堂皇；王公貴族的玉衣以及西亞進口的銀器、玻璃器令人驚艷。在北京近郊發掘的巨大地下陵墓，我們也看見明（1368–1644）、清（1644–1911）兩朝對此中原傳統的承繼。

各大博物館中的青銅、陶瓷、玉器精品往往出自這些墓葬；帝妃將相身後世界的必需品，正是人們對於祖先冥冥之中在人間的影響力所表達的敬畏與崇拜，也讓後世得以一窺久遠中國的生活實相。羅森教授的講演充分說明了，當世人討論古代文明遺產，中國悠久不凡的墓葬傳統應當得到更高的重視。

2022年第五屆唐獎漢學獎授予潔西卡‧羅森（Jessica Rawson）教授，以表彰其精研中國藝術文物之成就。羅森教授視野宏闊，見解精準，為無聲之物發聲，再現人之所未見；審美觀物，傳承薪火，賦予華夏古典嶄新意義。

不同以往得獎者多集中在文學、歷史與思想史領域，著重文字書寫，羅森教授則以藝術史與物質文化研究見長，關注考古出土的器物，使人們看見藝術品所承載的歷史文化，豐富漢學內涵，展現唐獎漢學獎作為世界大獎的開闊格局及視野。

👩‍🏫【 Tang Prize Lecture Returns to AAS-in-Asia: 2022 Tang Prize Laureate Professor Rawson Unveils Secrets of Ancient Chinese Tombs 】🇮🇩

Building on the success of last year's collaboration with the Association for Asian Studies (AAS), the Tang Prize Foundation once again presented a captivating Tang Prize Lecture at the 2024 AAS-in-Asia conference. The conference was held at Gedung Pusat Universitas Gadjah Mada in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, from July 9th to 11th. On the final day of the conference, the 2022 Tang Prize Laureate in Sinology, Professor Dame Jessica Rawson, delivered her insightful presentation titled "China's Great Tombs and the Treasures They Have Revealed." Her presentation was attended by a global audience both in person and online, providing a unique opportunity to learn from a leading expert in Chinese art and archaeology.

The AAS-in-Asia Conference 2024, an annual international gathering of over 1,500 scholars, students, artists, and professionals from 43 countries, featured a Tang Prize Lecture. Moderated by Professor Emeritus Stephen MacKinnon of Arizona State University, the lecture delved into ancient Chinese burial traditions and rare artifacts, shedding light on beliefs about the afterlife and the importance of cultural and historical context. Through a rich collection of photographs, Professor Rawson explored ancient Chinese tombs' engineering and architectural marvels, revealing how artifacts found within these tombs can deepen our understanding of ancient Chinese societies. She also presented her latest book, Life and Afterlife in Ancient China, which further examines the concepts of life and death in China.

Dr. Jenn-Chuan Chern, CEO of the Tang Prize Foundation, highlighted the significance of collaborating with the Association for Asian Studies (AAS), the world's largest and oldest organization dedicated to Asian Studies, with an 83-year legacy based in Michigan, USA. "The Tang Prize in Sinology is the world's most prestigious prize in its field," Dr. Chern stated. "We are immensely grateful to Professor Rawson, the 2022 Tang Prize Laureate, for traveling from the United Kingdom to Indonesia to engage with thousands of scholars from around the world. This interaction fosters a deeper understanding of sinology and fulfills our mission of making this field more accessible to the public."

In her lecture, Professor Rawson explored the burial traditions in the Central Plains from the Neolithic period (c. 3,000 BC) to the third century B.C., culminating in the awe-inspiring Mausoleum of the First Emperor. Buried more than 30 meters deep, this engineering marvel houses the world-famous Terracotta Warriors and Horses. She then plunged into the opulent tombs of the Han Dynasty (206 B.C. - 220 A.D.), adorned with jade garments for the elite and exquisite silver and glassware imported from West Asia. We also see the inheritance of this Central Plains tradition by the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties in the vast underground tombs excavated on the outskirts of Beijing. These tombs yield exquisite bronzes, ceramics, and jades displayed in renowned museums worldwide. They also reveal the elaborate provisions made for the afterlife of emperors and generals, demonstrating the reverence for ancestors' continued influence and offering a glimpse into the realities of ancient Chinese life. Professor Rawson's lecture underscored the importance of recognizing China's remarkable burial traditions when considering the legacies of ancient civilizations.

The 2022 Tang Prize in Sinology was awarded to Professor Jessica Rawson for her gift and mastery of the craft of the visible to read the art and artifacts of Chinese civilization. By giving voice to the ancient world of objects, she has taught generations how to see when they look at things, and her acuity and vast visual learning have given new insight into the world of the lineages, transformations, and migrations of mute things.

While previous Tang Prize laureates in Sinology focused on literature, history, and intellectual history, emphasizing written sources, Professor Rawson's expertise in early Chinese history and material culture, particularly her focus on archaeologically excavated artifacts, offers a unique perspective. This approach illuminates the history and culture embedded in tangible objects, allowing a deeper understanding of the stories these artifacts carry. By bridging the gap between material culture and textual sources, Professor Rawson enriches the field of sinology and showcases the open-minded and expansive vision of the Tang Prize in Sinology as a global award.

🌏【 唐獎永續發展獎得主奧馬爾·亞基九月底訪台
帶來2050零碳創新突破新機 】✨

2024唐獎永續發展獎得主，加州大學柏克萊分校化學系詹姆斯與內爾蒂崔特獎座教授奧馬爾˙亞基(Omar M. Yaghi)以其在金屬有機及相關超多孔骨架材料上開創性的建樹，此種材料已廣泛設計成碳捕集、氫氣和甲烷儲存及乾旱地區集水之應用，對永續發展作出非凡貢獻而榮獲唐獎。他的創新研究、發展、應用及教育展現了多元力量，為減碳、儲能、環境改善及水資源提供創新突破。唐獎教育基金會陳振川執行長特於日前(6/28)赴美拜訪Yaghi教授，親自邀請他九月底訪台受獎及參加唐獎週活動，Yaghi教授欣然答應並對台灣之行抱著極大的期待、熱情及喜悅。

為期一週的台灣行程中，Yaghi教授除了將參加唐獎頒獎典禮、晚宴、發表唐獎得獎人演講外，唐獎教育基金會也將為他安排一趟被稱為台灣矽谷的新竹之行，10月1日將於陽明交通大學舉行永續發展論壇，以「永續科技的新進展：金屬有機及相關骨架材料的發展與前瞻」主題，討論金屬有機及相關骨架材料之發展歴程及重大突破；此等新穎材料目前在環境、能源及水資源等方面之應用及成果、網格化學的未來展望與其在全球SDG追求上的重要性及永續科技進展上的意義等重大課題。

同一日，唐獎基金會也將安排重視年輕人及地球未來的Yaghi教授於新竹高中和新竹地區的高中生進行對談，分享出生於約旦安曼的一個難民家庭，家庭最早來自於巴勒斯坦的沙漠地區，15歲單獨赴美求學的他，如何克服成長中種種艱難，最終成為世界矚目科學家，以此鼓勵莘莘學子。基金會還將安排Yaghi教授和工研院及竹科交流，相信這日的活動必將在國內產官學界正大力推動減碳、氫能、甲烷、水資源科技相關問題之際造成極大轟動。

陳執行長也就其發明科技在土木建築材料及建築物的無限應用潛力進行交流。Yaghi教授十分認同陳執行長提出尹衍樑博士所發明Yin’s 螺旋的功能及快速建造耐震減碳的建築結構，供人類居住及工業使用，和Yaghi教授由分子化學科技及設計，來形成網格結構系統供蒐集、儲存超大量的CO2、氫氣、甲烷及水份等物資，具有異曲同工之妙。陳執行長也進一步指出，若Yaghi教授的技術能夠進一步擴大應用於智慧營建工程，其加乘效果預期將引發土木建築工程的創新革命。加上醫學等其他創新發展，均是他9月扺台交流的重點。

UC Berkeley 高度重視熱情接待

世界頂尖大學的加州大學柏克萊分校(UC Berkeley)對唐奬基金會的來訪十分重視，UC Berkeley目前已有三位唐獎得主，除了Omar Yaghi外，還有能源效率之父Author Rosenfeld 及以基因編輯獲唐獎，再於四年後獲諾貝爾獎的Jennifer Doudna等。

雖忙於校長交接準備，具有商業、創新及企業聯結專長，今(7/1)日上任的UC Berkeley第12任新校長Richard Lyons 仍熱情和陳執行長交談合照。執行副校長和教務長Benjamin Hermalin及研究中心的副校長Catherine Yelick也與陳執行長就唐獎獎項領域、學校新近發展及未來合作交流座談。學校高層非常重視唐獎，肯定唐獎的特殊價值，特別在永續發展及人文重視上的價值及奬項重要地位，將鼓勵相關領域同仁（包括1978年成立的東亞研究所、法學院等）認識唐奬，並深以同仁榮獲唐獎為榮。

除服務於化學院的Yaghi教授，也擔任加州大學柏克萊分校巴卡學院於計算、資料科學及社會院（College of Computing, Data Science, and Society, 簡稱CDSS) 首任共同主任及首席科學家。創立CDSS的院長Jennifer Chayes具有20多年領導微軟在理論及創新計算研究部門的服務經驗，她表示這是美國第一個跨領域的學院，也是柏克萊大學50多年來首次設置新學院。她分享在當今變化快速的資訊化時代，如何考慮社會及人類的實際需求而能夠做出有意義的貢獻很重要。因Yaghi教授獲唐獎備感欣慰的她表示， Yaghi教授獲此世界頂尖大獎的肯定，讓新創成立兩年的CDSS設置價值被捐款贊助者及大眾看到。她極度認可Yaghi的專業，認為他除了具有極強的化學知識，更具有結合更大領域合作及協助更多人加入研究推廣的眼光，使新科技能快速成功應用與落實。Yaghi教授目前整合氣候科學、人工智慧AI及材料科學這三者可說是最前瞻有效的策略做法，不啻為具有智慧及能力的領導人。

同樣，面對廿一世紀的挑戰，尹衍樑創辦人設置唐獎，以永續發展為核心獎勵對人類、社會及環境有貢獻的人士或組織，因為Yaghi教授獲獎更彰顯唐獎的價值，讓我們共同期待九月底唐獎週活動的正式登場。
