The venue was filled with laughter.

A string of good jokes that came in Memorial Lecture 7 days, Kyoto University Professor Shinya Yamanaka to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine Stockholm Karolinska Institute venue was filled with laughter. Fully demonstrate the charm of the people I have in Osaka under pressure in spite of a global authority that Nobel Prize, declared himself a "poor English." Was sent to warm applause from the crowd.
Standing on the podium with a strained look, Professor Yamanaka, began to speak words of thanks to those involved. However, just before the awards announced in October, Karolinska Institute, introduces the episode had come to Kyoto International Conference of "I feel me to wink at parting I will" with. And said, "Now it is clear that a deep meaning," the venue was filled with a big laugh.
Also referred to as masochistic as "surgeons frustrated" to me that the road to the researchers from the orthopedic surgeon, he took the laughter often even failure story of his youth.
Great-granddaddy of them all is that when you have to explain the circumstances leading to the discovery of cells (iPS) pluripotent stem cell that became the reason award with the slide. Received description illustrated "in motor security (immortality)" that should be is as they were expressed in the wrong "Inmorariti (immorality)" and make excuses as "not on purpose", the audience was laughing. We hope that you will be able to apply in clinical practice is substantially likely to take a little more time.




ノーベル医学生理学賞を受賞する山中伸弥京都大教授は７日臨んだ記念講演で得意のジョークを連発し、ストックホルム・カロリンスカ研究所の会場は笑いの渦に包まれた。ノーベル賞という世界的権威の重圧下、自ら公言する「へたな英語」をものともせずに大阪人の魅力を存分に発揮。観衆からは温かい拍手が送られた。
　山中教授は、緊張した面持ちで演壇に立ち、関係者への感謝の言葉から講演を始めた。だが、１０月の授賞発表直前、京都の国際会議に来ていたカロリンスカ研究所所長が「別れ際にウインクしてくれた気がする」とのエピソードを紹介。「いまはその深い意味がわかる」と語ると、会場は大きな笑いに包まれた。
　また、整形外科医から研究者への道を歩み出した自分を「挫折した外科医」と自虐的に呼び、若いころの失敗談でも度々笑いをとった。
　極めつけは、スライドを使って授賞理由となった人工多能性幹細胞（ｉＰＳ細胞）発見に至るまでの経緯を説明していた際のこと。「インモータリティ（不死）」であるはずの図解説明が「インモラリティ（不道徳）」と間違って表記されていたのを受け、「わざとではありません」と言い訳し、聴衆は爆笑した。もう少し時間がかかりそうですが臨床現場で実質的な応用ができるようになることを期待したいですね。
