Letter from Aziz Sancar to ÇEK

"Dear Wild Flowers, tomorrow the entire country will be entrusted to you. The guiding principle left to us by Atatürk is science; it is the cultivation of young individuals who are well-educated, beneficial to their country, family, and surroundings, and capable of making great creative contributions on a global scale when necessary.

To achieve this, what is greatly necessary is to work tirelessly with determination, courage, and the belief that we will succeed."
