Two research teams from the Institute of Electronics of BAS were awarded the "Acad. Emil Djakov" award for 2023.  The prize is awarded by the Scientific Council of the Institute every year for the best publication in reputable scientific journals. The awards were presented at a ceremony at the Institute of Electronics by the Director, Assoc. Prof. Tatyana Koutzarova. Assoc. Prof. Dr. Miglena Dimitrova, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Tsviatko Popov and Sen. Asst. Prof. Dr. Pavlina Vladimirova, in collaboration with scientists from Slovenia, Spain and the Czech Republic, carried out research on the application of the Triple-probe technique in a magnetic field contributing to a more accurate determination of the electron temperature in plasma in a magnetic field. The Bulgarian team has major contributions to the [...]

Erik Dimitrov from the Institute of Polymers of BAS is the winner of the "Outstanding Young Scientist in Organic Chemistry" award for 2024. The award was established by Acad. Ivan Juchnovski, and the official ceremony was held today at the UCTM - Sofia.  The award was presented by Prof. Venko Beshkov, Chairman of the Union of Chemists in Bulgaria. This year was the 8th edition of the competition. Erik Dimitrov's research is devoted to the development of novel nanostructured polymer carriers of drug substances based on spherical nucleic acids of polymer-oligonucleotide conjugates, micellar carriers of block copolymers and modified niosomes for systemic delivery of biologically active substances. The results were published in five papers in reputed international Q1 journals - Biomacromolecules, Pharmaceutics (2 issues), [...]

  The fifteenth scientific session "Young Scientists in the World of Polymers", organized by the Institute of Polymers of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, was held on June 6.
