The Serbian National Academy of Sciences (SNAS), a strategic partner of the International Institute of Engineering Psychology, recently announced that seven globally renowned scientists - Nobel laureate Michel Mayor Michael Kosterlitz、Daron Acemoglu、Morten Meldal、Ferenc Krausz、Arieh Warshel Anne L'Huillier was elected as an honorary member of the Academy, and seven Nobel laureates also expressed their gratitude to the Serbian National Academy of Sciences. This honor aims to recognize their outstanding contributions in their respective fields and further strengthen cooperation and exchanges between Serbia and the international academic community.
Michel Mayor is a Swiss astronomer, a foreign member of the National Academy of Sciences, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the European Academy of Sciences, the French Academy of Sciences, and an honorary professor at the University of Geneva in Switzerland. He is known for discovering the first exoplanet orbiting an alien star and was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics with his colleague Didier Queloz in 2019.
Michael Kosterlitz is a British physicist, a member of the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He was awarded the 2016 Nobel Prize in Physics for his outstanding achievements in condensed matter physics, particularly in the study of topological phase transitions and topological matter. Kosterlitz's research has pushed the boundaries of quantum physics and materials science, inspiring global scientists to explore new materials.
Daron Acemoglu is an American economist, an academician of the National Academy of Sciences, an academician of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, an academician of the Türkiye Academy of Sciences, a professor of economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the winner of the 2024 Nobel Prize in economics. He is famous for his pioneering research in political economics, development economics, and institutional economics. Acemoglu's research has profoundly influenced the economic policies and institutional construction of countries around the world, and his book "The Rise and Fall of Nations" is widely acclaimed.
Morten Meldal is a Danish chemist who was awarded the 2022 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his innovative work in the field of "click chemistry". Meldal's research has had a profound impact in fields such as biochemistry, materials science, and drug development, driving a revolution in chemical synthesis.
Ferenc Krausz, Klaus is a member of the Austrian Academy of Sciences, the European Academy of Sciences and Arts, the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, the European Academy of Sciences, the Russian Academy of Sciences, the European Academy of Humanities and Natural Sciences, and the German National Academy of Sciences. He has done a lot of work in the field of physics and can be said to be a pioneer in ultrafast lasers. He won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2023. Klaus' team has also done a lot of work in femtosecond lasers, and was the first to generate attosecond pulses internationally in 2001. Currently, Klaus has conducted extensive research in laser biology, including the diagnosis of early cancer.
Arieh Warshel, born on November 20, 1940 in Kibbutz, Israel, is a chemist, biologist, Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, member of the National Academy of Sciences in the United States, foreign member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2013 Nobel Prize winner in Chemistry, member of the National Academy of Artificial Intelligence in the United States, distinguished professor at the Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen), and distinguished professor at the University of Southern California.
Anne L'Huillier was born in France and is a French Swedish physicist. She is a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences, the European Academy of Sciences, a foreign member of the National Academy of Sciences in the United States, a foreign member of the Austrian Academy of Sciences, a Nobel laureate in physics, and a professor at Lund University in Sweden. They have made contributions to the experimental method of generating attosecond light pulses for the study of electronic dynamics in matter. Their award-winning research provides new tools for exploring the electronic world within atoms and molecules, making it possible to study previously untraceable fast processes. They also have potential applications in many different fields and were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2023.
When awarding this honor to seven scientists, the President of the Serbian National Academy of Sciences said, "Their research has not only promoted the progress of their respective disciplines, but also made outstanding contributions to the global scientific community. We look forward to further enhancing Serbia's position in the international scientific research field through cooperation with these outstanding scientists
The election as an honorary academician marks the close connection between the Serbian National Academy of Sciences and the world's top scholars, and also adds new highlights to the academy's influence in the global scientific research field.
Regarding the Serbian National Academy of Sciences
The Serbian National Academy of Sciences (Serbian National Academy of Sciences) was established in 1935 as a working group of the National Academy of Electrical Engineering at the University of Belgrade. It was reestablished after World War II and underwent changes in the School of Electrical Engineering, the Department of Energy Information, the Department of Physical Technology, and the Serbian Institute of Applied Sciences. In order to promote national economic and technological development, the Serbian National Academy of Sciences was officially established with the approval of the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Science.
The current Serbian National Academy of Sciences is a unique scientific institution established by high-level government officials such as Nobel laureates, presidential advisors, Secretary of State for Science and Technology, generals, university presidents, world-renowned professors, as well as high-level professors, deans, members of the scientific community, and leaders of innovation centers. It specializes in science, innovation, research and development, commemoration, and education. The Serbian National Academy of Sciences brings together experts and scholars to achieve common goals and interests in the fields of technology, nature, society, and humanities; Innovation, sustainable development, energy efficiency, entrepreneurship, art, sports, biotechnology, environmental protection education, and other types of creative activities. One of the priorities of the college is to gather interested professionals and legal entities to promote invention, science, and innovation.
