Chemistry Europe Fellows 2020/2021

This year, Chemistry Europe honors 27 persons for their outstanding support and contributions to the European joint publishing venture. The Fellowship is the highest award given by Chemistry Europe. We congratulate the Chemistry Europe Fellows listed below on this honor.

Chemistry Europe’s Fellows Program

Awarded biannually since 2015, the Fellows program honors exceptional members of the Chemistry Europe societies who have made a significant contribution to Chemistry Europe through their support, research, creativity, and innovation. Chemistry Europe Fellows are selected by the Chemistry Europe societies based on proposals received during an open nomination process and by the editorial teams of Chemistry Europe’s journals. Nominees must be current members in good standing of one of Chemistry Europe’s member societies. They receive a certificate and retain the designation Chemistry Europe Fellow for life.

“We are very excited to honor these outstanding European scientists for their exceptional support of Chemistry Europe and its journals. It is people like these and their wonderful commitment who lay the basis of Chemistry Europe’s success,” says Professor Wolfram Koch, Executive Director of the Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker (GDCh, German Chemical Society), and the Chemistry Europe Council Member responsible for the Fellows program. The Chemistry Europe Fellows will be celebrated at a reception during the 8th EuChemS Chemistry Congress in Lisbon on August 29, 2022.

Chemistry Europe publishes 19 high-quality scientific chemistry journals covering a wide range of disciplines, the magazine ChemistryViews, and it supports scientists at every stage of their careers. All this is only possible because many chemists in Europe and the world over are supporting Chemistry Europe in many ways. Some stood out especially and are honored as Chemistry Europe Fellows. Previous notable Chemistry Europe Fellows include the Nobel Laureates Ben Feringa (The Netherlands) and Sir Fraser Stoddart (USA).
