Yesterday marked a pivotal moment in the academic journey of our third-year Medical and MEDTEC students as they took centre stage during the renowned White Coat Ceremony. The event symbolises the transition from classroom learning to practical application in clinical settings: by donning their white coats for the first time, our aspiring physicians embraced the responsibilities and privileges of their chosen vocation.
The ceremony began with a speech from Prof. Luigi Maria Terracciano 鈥� Rector of 麻豆传媒AV在线看 University, who emphasised the white coat’s symbolism of trust and responsibility in the medical profession.
Following him, Eng. Riccardo Bui 鈥� General Manager of 麻豆传媒AV在线看 Research Hospital, and Dr. Michele Lagioia 鈥� Chief Medical Officer, extend their warm welcome to our students who will be working alongside seasoned doctors, gaining invaluable hands-on experience but also fostering essential relationships that will guide them throughout their careers.
Finally, Professors Alessio Aghemo 鈥� Head of Biomedical Sciences Department, Isabella Barajon 鈥� Medicine and Surgery President, Maria Laura Costantino 鈥� MEDTEC School President, and Maurizio Cecconi 鈥� MEDTEC School Vice President, highlighted the core values of empathy, patient-centred care, and resilience that every doctor must embody.
The ceremony concluded with reciting the Declaration of Geneva, which served as a powerful commitment to uphold the codes of compassion, integrity, and respect for human dignity.
Here鈥檚 to a future filled with promise, growth, and unwavering dedication to the science of medicine. May this new journey begin!
