欣闻美国斯克利普斯研究所遗传学系主席、我校兼职教授Bruce Beutler(布鲁斯·博伊特勒)获得2011年度诺贝尔医学奖,校长朱崇实10月5日代表学校给Bruce Beutler教授发去贺电表示祝贺。昨日,Bruce Beutler教授专此回信朱校长,对朱校长的祝贺表示感谢,并表达了他本人与厦门大学的特殊感情,表示一定会在适当时候再次访问我校。
以下为Bruce Beutler教授来信原文和译文:
Dear President Chongshi:
Thank you very much for your kind letter. I recall my visits to Xiamen University with great pleasure. I was impressed by the high quality of research, and by the interest and obvious dedication of the students I had a chance to meet. One of my own former graduate students, Professor Jiahuai Han, was my host on both of the past visits I made. This by itself establishes a special connection between myself and Xiamen University. I hope to visit again in the future as soon as time permits.
With all best wishes,
Bruce Beutler
Professor and Chairman, Department of Genetics

尊敬的朱崇实校长:
贺信收悉,十分感谢。对厦门大学的访问至今仍让我记忆犹新。厦门大学高质量的科研水平、学生强烈的求知欲望和学习干劲给我留下了深刻印象。两次造访厦门大学都受到我的学生韩家淮教授的热情接待,这一切都使得我和厦门大学结下了不解之缘。希望在不久将来能够再次造访厦门大学。
祝好!
布鲁斯·博伊特勒
斯克利普斯研究所遗传学系教授和主席
