Because of drastic sanitary reasons occurring now in Europe, the L. da Vinci and B. Pascal Prizes ceremony + the delivery of EurASc diploma to new members will be dissociated from the scientific Symposium on the role of micro- and nano-technologies for medicine and life sciences that will take place on April 14th 2021.
The Prize Ceremony will take place in the second half of May 2021. You will be later informed of the new date.

Commissioner Carlos Moedas met the Representatives of the European Academy of Sciences in Brussels on December 3rd, 2018. On this occasion, Prof. Rodrigo Martins, President of the European Academy of Sciences, has presented the Petition in favor of “Horizon Europe”.
The Symposium and Ceremony of Awards of the European Academy of Sciences took place at the Center for Interdisciplinary Research (ZiF Center) in Bielefeld (Germany), on October 18-20, 2018.
The Symposium was entitled ““Integrity and Responsibility in Science: Navigating through Conflicting Social and Epistemic Demands”.
The Ceremony of Awards has rewarded 6 Blaise Pascal Medals and 1 Leonardo da Vinci Award. The Blaise Pascal Medallists are Prof. Avelino Corma, in Chemistry; Prof. Carlos Duarte, in Earth Sciences; Prof. Emmanuel Gdoutos, in Engineering; Prof. Paolo Samori, in Materials Science; Prof. Alice Guionnet, in Mathematics; and Prof. Peter Hänggi, in Physics. Prof. Sir John Ball has received the Leonardo da Vinci Award.
The Symposium and Ceremony of Awards of the European Academy of Sciences took place in the Lisbon Academy of Sciences on October 26-27, 2017. It was organised by Prof Rodrigo Martins, Vice President of EurASc.
In the frame of the activities promoted by EURASC, it took place on 28th June in Brussels a debate between the head of divisions of EURASC, with Prof. R. Martins aiming to establish the impact of nanotechnologies in particular, and of Science and Technology in general, in contributing for an Innovation Agenda for Europe from which all will benefit.
The discussion has involved how the 3 main pillars of our progress do interact (Education; Creativity and Industry Application) and how science can contribute for this agenda of welfare and comfort for all.
This event was supported in the frame of EU projects Nano2All and BET-EU
