Dear lecturers,

Dear students,

Dear guests of today's PharMSchool Symposium,

As a representative of the student council, I would like to draw your attention for a moment to the teaching staff at the Pharmacampus and thank them on behalf of the entire student body for their daily work! Individually, each person has contributed to the foundation on which we are building our new stage of life as future pharmacists.

Thank you very much!

Today, however, we would like to highlight one person who has made a lasting impact through their exceptional commitment, professional expertise and closeness to the students. Every year, we award the Golden Spatula to a person who not only impresses with their expertise in teaching, but above all with their genuine closeness to the students.

In the lecture and in the practical course, they succeed in combining structure and passion. The lecture is also characterised by clarity and comprehensibility: not only do they strive for well thought-out, comprehensible lecture slides, but also for a teaching style that is often loosened up by small digressions and is accessible to the students. There is a pleasant learning atmosphere - always at a high technical level.

Contact with the students shows what it means to be committed: she takes the time to answer questions and often goes far beyond what is expected. Whether at the PharMSchool, during internships or in between: She is approachable, helpful, present.

Particularly noteworthy is her role in the laboratory internship, which many describe as extremely well organised. Her work there is not only professional, but also personally valuable - because you feel listened to and taken seriously.

Now we would like to invite Priv.-Doz. Dr Spiegler to the stage!

We are very grateful to be able to count you among the lecturers at the Pharmacampus and hope for many more years of co-operation.

We are delighted to present you with the Golden Spatula 2025 today - as a token of our appreciation and thanks.
