Avram Hershko was awarded the Nobel Prize in 2004 in Chemistry for his discovery, with Aaron Ciechanover and Irvin Rose, of ubiquitin‐mediated protein degradation. The ubiquitin‐proteasome pathway has a critical role in maintaining the homeostasis of cells and is believed to be involved in the development and progression of diseases such as: cancer, muscular and neurological diseases, immune and inflammatory responses. Aaron Ciechanover was awarded the Nobel Prize in 2004 in Chemistry for his discovery, with Avram Hershko and Irwin Rose of ubiquitin‐mediated protein degradation. The ubiquitin‐proteasome pathway has a critical role in maintaining the homeostasis of cells and is believed to be involved in the development and progression of diseases such as: cancer, muscular and neurological diseases, immune and inflammatory responses. Ada Yonath was awarded the Nobel Prize in 2009 in Chemistry along with Venkatraman Ramakrishnan and Thomas A. Steitz for her studies on the structure and function of the ribosome, becoming the first woman in 45 years to win the Nobel Prize for Chemistry. Important work also includes identifying how bacteria become resistant to antibiotics.

  • Dear Colleague, This Invitation Is Being Sent on Behalf of Prof
    Dear colleague, On behalf of Prof. Fernand Marquis (San Diego State U., USA), Prof. Soteris Kalogirou (Cyprus U. of Technology, Cyprus), and Prof. Bernard Raveau (U. of Caen, France), co-chairs of the 2nd International Symposium on Solid State Chemistry for Applications and Sustainable Development in my capacity as President of SIPS 2020/2021, I am personally inviting you to participate as an author/speaker. This major symposium focuses on solid-state chemistry corresponds to the relationships occurring between the synthesis, structure, and physical-chemical properties of solid inorganic compounds (in most cases), leading to a final compound with optimized properties such as advances in the synthesis routes, design of materials for sustainable energy production, advanced characterization techniques and applications, etc. These and many others are among the topics of the symposium. This symposium will be held as part of the combined SIPS 2020/2021, an annual multidisciplinary summit, organized by the not-for-profit corporation FLOGEN Stars Outreach (www.flogen.org), which is dedicated to achieving sustainability through science and technology applied in various fields. It incorporates summit plenary lectures from well-known speakers that address the link between various domains in the pursuit of sustainable development, as well as specific scientific symposia featuring specialized presentations in a specific domain, with the same goals in mind. The symposium and overall summit are planned to be held in Phuket, Thailand from November 28th – December 2nd 2021. We have confirmed until now the participation of the following 9 Nobel Laureates: Prof. Dan Shechtman, Prof. Didier Queloz, Prof. M. Stanley Whittingham, Sir Konstantin Novoselov, Prof.

  • The Elie Wiesel Foundation for Humanity Nobel
    THE ELIE WIESEL FOUNDATION FOR HUMANITY NOBEL LAUREATES INITIATIVE September 9, 2005 TO: Kansas State Board of Education We, Nobel Laureates, are writing in defense of science. We reject efforts by the proponents of so-called “intelligent design” to politicize scientific inquiry and urge the Kansas State Board of Education to maintain Darwinian evolution as the sole curriculum and science standard in the State of Kansas. The United States has come a long way since John T. Scopes was convicted for teaching the theory of evolution 80 years ago. We are, therefore, troubled that Darwinism was described as “dangerous dogma” at one of your hearings. We are also concerned by the Board’s recommendation of August 8, 2005 to allow standards that include greater criticism of evolution. Logically derived from confirmable evidence, evolution is understood to be the result of an unguided, unplanned process of random variation and natural selection. As the foundation of modern biology, its indispensable role has been further strengthened by the capacity to study DNA. In contrast, intelligent design is fundamentally unscientific; it cannot be tested as scientific theory because its central conclusion is based on belief in the intervention of a supernatural agent. Differences exist between scientific and spiritual world views, but there is no need to blur the distinction between the two. Nor is there need for conflict between the theory of evolution and religious faith. Science and faith are not mutually exclusive. Neither should feel threatened by the other. When it meets in October, 2005, we urge the Kansas State Board of Education to vote against the latest draft of standards, which propose including intelligent design in academic curriculum.

  • Albert Szent-Györgyi (1893 – 1986)
    “Research is to see what everybody else has seen , and to think what nobody else has thought”. Albert Szent-Györgyi (1893 – 1986) Szent-Györgyi 75 – Conference in Szeged The best-known scientific award, the Nobel Prize was honored to Albert Szent- Györgyi 75 years ago, in 1937. Remembering the anniversary, an international conference with the participation of nine Nobel Prize laureates was organized by the University of Szeged, Faculty of Medicine in March 2012. Albert Szent-Györgyi is the only Hungarian Nobel Prize laureate scientist who received this outstanding international prize as an honor for his activity in his homeland. He proceeded with his researches, launched in the Netherlands and Great-Britain, as the head of the Chemistry Department of the University in Szeged (founded in 1921). The subject of his experiments became paprika, from which he soon isolated a multitude of “hexuronic acid”, later known as vitamin C. The Nobel Prize was adjudicated to him "for his discoveries in connection with the biological combustion process with special reference to vitamin C and the catalysis of fumaric acid" by the Medical Faculty of the Royal Caroline Institute in Stockholm in 1937. As commemoration for the illustrious anniversary an imposing international conference was organized by the University of Szeged, Faculty of Medicine between March 22 and 25, 2012. What made this event special is that 9 Nobel Prize laureate scientist visited Szeged: Andrew V. Schally (1977), Bert Sakmann (1991), Robert Huber (1988), Eric Wieschaus (199), Peter C. Doherty (1996), John E. Walker (1997), Tim Hunt (2001), Aaron Ciechanover (2004) és Ada E.
