The University of Nicosia Medical School celebrated the graduation of the Class of 2026 on Tuesday, 23 June, conferring Doctor of Medicine, Master of Science in Family Medicine and Master of Public Health degrees. The ceremony brought together graduates, faculty, families and distinguished guests from around the world.<\/p>\n

A key moment of the ceremony was the conferral of an honorary Doctor of Science (Medicine) degree upon internationally renowned physician and scientist\u00a0Dr Eric Topol<\/strong>, Founder and Director of the Scripps Research Translational Institute and one of the world\u2019s leading authorities on artificial intelligence in medicine. Delivering the commencement address, Dr Topol encouraged graduates to embrace the unprecedented opportunities that lie ahead while never losing sight of medicine\u2019s most fundamental purpose: caring for people.<\/p>\n

Describing the graduates as \u2018a new generation of physicians and scientists entering a world in transition\u2019, Topol spoke of the transformative role that artificial intelligence will play in healthcare\u2014from improving diagnosis and personalising prevention to reducing administrative burdens and expanding access to medical knowledge. Yet, he stressed that technology can never replace empathy, trust and the human connection between doctor and patient.<\/p>\n

\u2018The fundamental goals of medicine will never change\u2019, he said. \u2018The secret of the care of the patient is in caring for the patient\u2019.<\/p>\n

Looking ahead, Topol painted an optimistic vision of healthcare in which AI, genomics and preventive medicine will enable physicians to predict and prevent many of today\u2019s most common diseases before they develop. He urged graduates to remain curious throughout their careers, embrace lifelong learning, communicate science responsibly and never be afraid to reinvent themselves as medicine continues to evolve.<\/p>\n

Earlier in the ceremony, Medical School Dean\u00a0Professor Adonis Ioannides<\/strong>\u00a0congratulated the graduands on reaching an important milestone, recognising the dedication, resilience and commitment that had brought them to this moment. He encouraged them to uphold the highest standards of professionalism while serving patients and society with integrity and compassion.<\/p>\n

Addressing the graduates, University of Nicosia Rector\u00a0Professor Philippos Pouyioutas<\/strong>\u00a0highlighted the University\u2019s continued commitment to academic excellence, innovation and global engagement. He noted that graduates now join an international community of alumni making meaningful contributions across the world and encouraged them to remain lifelong learners and proud ambassadors of the University as they help shape the future of healthcare.<\/p>\n

Minister of Health\u00a0Neophytos Charalambides<\/strong>\u00a0described healthcare as a profession founded equally on scientific excellence and human connection. He reminded graduates that while medicine continues to evolve through innovation and digital transformation, compassion, integrity and the trust between healthcare professionals and patients will always remain at the heart of quality care.<\/p>\n

The ceremony also featured the presentation of the\u00a0Peter Kopelman and Andreas Charalambous Founders Prize<\/strong>\u00a0for the highest cumulative academic performance, followed by the recitation of the Hippocratic Oath by the new medical graduates, symbolising their commitment to the ethical practice of medicine.<\/p>\n

Following the ceremony, graduates, faculty members, families and friends gathered for a reception celebrating the achievements of a diverse graduating class representing dozens of nationalities. The occasion reflected the University\u2019s vibrant international character and its mission to educate healthcare professionals prepared to advance health around the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

The University of Nicosia Medical School celebrated its tenth commencement last night, conferring medical, master\u2019s and Doctor of Philosophy degrees.<\/p>\n

The ceremony centred on a commencement speech by Joan Gabel, Chancellor of the University of Pittsburgh, who urged the Class of 2025 to \u2018trust yourselves, embrace uncertainty, and stay human\u2019. Drawing parallels between the graduates\u2019 entry into medical School during COVID-19 and the 1950s fight against polio, she cited University of Pittsburgh virologist Jonas Salk\u2019s decision to forgo a patent for his vaccine as a model of scientific courage and altruism. \u2018When the world needed him most, he stepped up\u2019, she said. \u2018Likewise, when the world needed you, you answered the call\u2019.<\/p>\n

Gabel distilled three lessons from Salk\u2019s story \u2013 confidence in one\u2019s expertise, a willingness to lean into the unknown, and an insistence on compassion\u2014before reminding the new doctors and scientists that their degrees are the opportunity to do more\u2019.<\/p>\n

Earlier, Medical School Dean Professor Adonis Ioannides welcomed guests and invited graduands to \u2018savour your success and reflect on a journey that has been demanding yet rewarding\u2019,\u00a0 while Health Minister Michael Damianos told graduands that healthcare \u2018is not merely a profession, but a commitment to excellence, empathy and equity\u2019, adding that Cyprus\u2019s people-centred General Healthcare System will rely on their \u2018dedication, innovation and leadership\u2019. Senior Vice-Rector Professor Constantinos Phellas stressed that medical practice now unfolds \u2018in a transformative period\u2019, where artificial intelligence and augmented reality already influence diagnosis and treatment. He urged graduates to embrace lifelong learning, safeguard patient-centred values as technology advances and serve as \u2018proud ambassadors\u2019 of the University in their future careers.<\/p>\n

Honorary doctorates went to Professors Peter McCrorie and Peter Karayiannis. The Peter Kopelman \u2013 Andreas Charalambous Founders Prize for academic excellence was shared by MD graduate Motamedian Sobhan and MBBS graduate Maya Leila Nasser.<\/p>\n

After reciting the Hippocratic Oath, graduates, faculty and families \u2013 drawn from more than 90 countries and every continent\u2014gathered for a reception that highlighted the School\u2019s global reach and rich cultural tapestry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

The University of Nicosia Medical School proudly celebrated its 9th Graduation Ceremony at the University\u2019s Open Amphitheatre on Thursday, 27 June 2024. Congratulations to the Class of 2024!<\/p>\n

During his first visit to Cyprus, Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus was awarded an honorary Doctor of Medicine degree by the Medical School of the University of Nicosia<\/h3>\n

Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus<\/strong>, Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO), conveyed his commitment that the WHO will support the Cypriot government in every possible way to promote, provide, and protect the health of the island\u2019s people.<\/p>\n

Dr Ghebreyesus visited our country for the first time to attend the Graduation Ceremony of the Medical School of the University of Nicosia, which took place on Thursday, 27 June 2024, at the University of Nicosia Amphitheatre. During the graduation ceremony, Dr Tedros was awarded an honorary Doctor of Medicine degree.<\/p>\n

This was the 10th graduation ceremony of the Medical School, attended by the Minister of Health, Mr Michalis Damianou, the Minister of Interior, Mr Konstantinos Ioannou, the Vice Chancellor of St George\u2019s, University of London, Professor Jenny Higham, ambassadors from various countries in Cyprus, and other distinguished guests, as well as hundreds of relatives and friends of the graduates who travelled to Cyprus from all continents to attend the ceremony.<\/p>\n

In his speech, Dr Ghebreyesus stated: \u201cAs we are in every country, WHO is committed to supporting the Government of Cyprus in any way we can to promote, provide and protect the health of the people of this island.\u201d He also reminded that Cyprus has been hosting the newest of the 153 WHO country offices since last year.<\/p>\n

Addressing the Minister of Health and other political and official figures, Dr Ghebreyesus urged them to actively support the discussions towards an international agreement to tackle pandemics (Pandemic Treaty): \u201cIf negotiations are completed by next May at the latest, as agreed, it would still be a giant achievement in very short time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dr Ghebreyesus then expressed his admiration for \u201cthe range of careers for which this school is producing graduates\u201d: \u201cFrom clinical practice to public health and research,\u201d he noted. \u201cThe simple truth is that there is no health without health and care workers.\u201d<\/p>\n

He emphasized the irreplaceable role of healthcare workers despite the advancements in artificial intelligence and other technologies: \u201cThe COVID-19 pandemic showed us just how important they are,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Concluding, Dr Ghebreyesus said: \u201cWHO was founded 76 years ago, in 1948, as the world emerged from the devastation of the Second World War. Like the United Nations of which we are a part, WHO was born of the recognition that the only alternative to global conflict was global cooperation. Our Constitution was the first instrument of international law to affirm that the highest attainable standard of health is a fundamental right for all people, without distinction. A fundamental human right. Not a privilege for some, or for most; it\u2019s a right for all. That is the right for which WHO will continue to work.\u201d<\/p>\n

The University of Nicosia Medical School proudly celebrated its 9th Graduation Ceremony at the University\u2019s Open Amphitheatre on Tuesday, 27 June 2023.<\/p>\n

The event was attended by the Ministers of Health and Interior, the Swiss Ambassador, the Bishop of Tamasos and Orinis, the President of the Cyprus Medical Association, and the Director General of the Health Insurance Organization.\u00a0 Also present were representatives from medical councils, societies, and affiliated hospital in Cyprus, USA, UK, Israel, Switzerland, and Greece. Additionally, hundreds of relatives and friends of the graduates were in attendance, having travelled to Cyprus from all continents.<\/p>\n

In his opening remarks, the Dean of the Medical School, Professor Adonis Ioannides extended his congratulations to the graduating class. He touched upon various achievements of the School, notably in the fields of education, innovation, and social contribution. Emphasizing the School\u2019s rich research output and its extensive publications, he underscored their significant contribution to the University\u2019s international ranking. Professor Ioannides also made note of the remarkably high employment rate of the School\u2019s graduates.<\/p>\n

In his message to the future leaders in medicine, the Rector of the University, Professor Philippos Pouyioutas underscored the potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI). He urged the graduates to seize this unique opportunity and leverage AI\u2019s capabilities while adhering to ethical, socially responsible, and patient-centred approaches. He expressed his vision for a more efficient, effective, and compassionate healthcare system, where the fusion of AI and human expertise can bring about transformative advancements.<\/p>\n

Addressing the graduating class, Minister of Health, Dr Popi Kanari, highlighted their successful completion of the first step in their medical journey and encouraged them to face challenges with dignity. She urged them to seize opportunities, and emphasised the importance of valuing their identity and diversity. She advocated for them to become doers and not just dreamers, and to follow their instincts. She concluded by stating that their vision would be the beacon in their lives, leading to the changes they wished to implement.<\/p>\n

Addressing the graduates, keynote speaker Professor Paul Finucane, Member of the School\u2019s International Advisory Board, stressed that while the attainment of a medical degree confers enormous privileges, it also carries major responsibility. He advised the graduates on three issues. They should look after the communities in which they live, they should stay in contact with and look after one another as they go through life, and they should look after themselves and avoid the dangers that too often blight the careers and the lives of doctors. He welcomed graduates into what is surely the greatest of all professions and one that will allow them not only to enhance their own lives but also the lives of others.<\/p>\n

In recognition of their extraordinary contributions to the field of medicine, two esteemed personalities from Cyprus were awarded the honorary degree of Doctor of Science (Medicine) honoris causa. Professor Andreas Nicolaides for his remarkable global and local contributions to cardiovascular medicine, and Professor Loizos Loizou for his outstanding and pioneering work in caring for children and adolescents with cancer in Cyprus.<\/p>\n

The ceremony reached its culmination as the new doctors publicly recited the Hippocratic Oath, symbolizing their commitment to upholding the highest standards of ethics, compassion, and patient care.<\/p>\n

The graduating students had successfully completed various programmes of study, including MD (Doctor of Medicine), MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery), Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Sciences, Master of Science in Family Medicine, Master of Science in Health Services Administration, and Master of Public Health.<\/p>\n

Medical School faculty leads introduction of pioneering Alzheimer’s treatment in Cyprus<\/h1>\n

George Kaponides<\/a>, Clinical Professor of Neurology at the Medical School and Medical and Scientific Director of the EOKA Fighters’ Melathron, was part of the first medical team in Cyprus to administer donanemab, a new treatment that slows the progression of Alzheimer’s disease.<\/p>\n

Marketed under the brand name Kisunla, the drug is a monoclonal antibody that targets and clears established beta-amyloid plaques in the brain, helping to slow cognitive and functional decline in patients with early-stage Alzheimer\u2019s disease.<\/p>\n

The first patient to receive the treatment in Cyprus was a 72-year-old patient at EOKA Fighters’ Melathron in Palodia, who met the strict eligibility criteria, having been diagnosed at an early stage of the disease and presenting with mild symptoms. To make the treatment available, Prof. Kaponides and his team secured special authorisation from the Pharmaceutical Services for the importation of the drug.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Philenews, Prof. Kaponides said that the drug had already been granted marketing authorisation by the European Commission in September 2025 and is already being used in several countries abroad, while access to the treatment in Cyprus is subject to strict eligibility criteria.<\/p>\n

Prof. Kaponides also highlighted the importance of early diagnosis, emphasising that advances in disease-modifying therapies make timely identification of Alzheimer’s disease more critical than ever. He expressed hope that more patients who could benefit from the therapy will be identified in the future and that the Health Insurance Organisation (HIO) will consider covering its cost to improve access for those who could benefit.<\/p>\n

The introduction of donanemab in Cyprus represents an important development in the treatment of Alzheimer\u2019s disease and expands the therapeutic options available to patients at an early stage of the condition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
