We are pleased to announce that the 2022 European Chemistry Gold Medal has been awarded to Professor Dame Carol Robinson and that Professor Victor Mougel is the recipient of the 2020 EuChemS Lecture Award. 

On behalf of all of us at EuChemS: congratulations! 

Professor Dame Carol Robinson was awarded the 2022 European Chemistry Gold Medal for exceptional achievements in the field of chemistry in Europe. She is globally recognised as a leader in the development of mass spectrometry to understand the 3D structure of large molecular compounds, specifically carrying out ground-breaking research on protein folding, ribosomes, molecular chaperones, and membrane proteins. Her cutting-edge work finds many applications from antibiotic resistance to drug design in both academia and industry.
