On behalf of the Organizing Committee of the XIth Parnas Conference it’s my honour and pleasure to greet you and to invite you to join the PARNAS Conference-2018 in Kyiv, the beautiful capital of our country. Welcome to Ukraine! Many things have been changed in the world and in Biology since the first Parnas Conference in 1996 in Lviv, and the Conference itself has been changed. During these 22 years, the Parnas Conference became an International scientific forum organized now by three societies – Ukrainian Biochemical, Polish Biochemical and Israel Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. Though these three societies serve alternatively as hosts, the Parnas Conference was never considered being a close trilateral event but a wide and open International Conference with a special emphasis on young scientists. Since the last Conference in Wroclaw in 2016 the Parnas Conference became a Young Scientists Forum with financial support of FEBS and as the FEBS3+ Meeting. General opinion is that all ten previous Parnas conferences were successful, and I wish to thank all my colleagues who had contributed so much in the organization of these conferences. In particular, I wish to express our deep gratitude to Professor Rostyslav Stoika who had initiated Parnas Conferences, to Professor Andrzej Dzugaj and Professor Jolanta Baranska – former presidents of the Polish Biochemical Society, to Professor Michael Eisenbach, former President of the Israel Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology as well as to Professor Israel Pecht – former FEBS General Secretary and Professor Adam Szewczyk – for mer FEBS Congress Counsellor for their support and contribution into the Parnas Conferences organization. Almost everybody at our Conference is well aware why it bears the name of Jakub Parnas (1884-1949). But still I wish to remind that this outstanding scholar was born in Austro-Hungarian Empire in a village in Drogobytch region, which is in recent Ukraine but after the First WW became in Poland, was studying sciences in Germany, France and Switzerland, and was working in France and in Poland (in Warsaw and mainly in Lviv) until 1939. In all fairness, he is considered to be the founder of Polish Biochemistry. Due to the known events in 1939 Parnas became a Soviet citizen still living and working in Lviv (in the then Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic) until 1941 when Nazis occupied Lviv, and he was evacuated to Ufa and later to Moscow. For some time in Ufa he was collaborating with our Institute of Biochemistry, which was evacuated there from Kyiv during the WW II. Due to his outstanding contribution to Biochemistry Parnas was highly estimated in the Soviet Union being elected to the USSR Academy of Sciences and Academy of Medical Sciences and decorated with highest awards. But it was USSR under Stalin and on January 28, 1949 he was arrested by KGB and next day died in KGB prison because of diabetes crisis or heart attack. Indeed it was a personal tragedy but also a huge loss for the world’s science. That’s why establishing the Parnas Conferences on modern Biochemistry is our Biochemical Societies’ homage to this great scholar and personality. Please allow me again, on behalf of the Organizing Committee, to wish you all fruitful and enjoyable stay in Kyiv.
