ロビエモン ロビエモンのイラスト

北大腫瘍病理学教室の公式キャラクター。長嶋教授着任時1986年から現在まで続く学生との勉強会「おはようロビンス」をモチーフにしたもの。2020年のコロナ禍で勉強会が完全オンライン化で実施された際に登場。北大医学部100期の佐々木美羽さん作。

左手にはロビンスの英文原書を、右手にはコーヒーを持っている顕微鏡君。おはようロビンスは、コーヒーを飲みながら読もうという長嶋教授のモットーが示されたもので、左手の本は何事も英文原著にあたりながら真剣に病理診断・研究に取り組む姿勢を、またコーヒーはどのような状況でも余裕をもって楽しむ、という第二病理の伝統的な教室の在り方を示したもの。

キャラクター考案時に丁度、堀江貴文(ホリエモン)さんが教室に研究の話で来訪されており、ヒントを得てロビエモンと命名された。
