The European Academy of Sciences is pleased to announce that Prof. Gary J. Schrobilgen, Fellow of EurASc, has been awarded the International Henri Moissan Prize 2024, one of the highest international distinctions in the field of fluorine chemistry. The International Henri Moissan Prize, awarded every three years by the Fondation de la Maison de la Chimie, recognises a scientist of international standing for outstanding and sustained contributions to fluorine chemistry and fluorinated compounds. Established in 1986 to commemorate the centenary of Henri Moissan’s isolation of elemental fluorine — a discovery that led to the first Nobel Prize in Chemistry awarded to a French scientist — the prize is widely regarded as the most prestigious distinction in this specialised field. Prof. Schrobilgen, Professor Emeritus of Chemistry at McMaster University (Canada), is recognised for his seminal work in inorganic fluorine chemistry, including noble-gas chemistry, main-group and transition-metal fluorine chemistry, and radiochemistry. His research has had significant applications in areas such as nuclear energy production, photovoltaic and semiconductor materials, advanced rocket propellants, refrigerants, microelectronics, as well as medical imaging and radiopharmaceutical development. The award ceremony took place on 5 November 2025 at the Fondation de la Maison de la Chimie in Paris, following a postponement from 2024 due to scheduling disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Moissan Medal was presented during a dedicated scientific symposium organised for this occasion. The European Academy of Sciences warmly congratulates Prof. Gary J. Schrobilgen on this distinguished international recognition.

Dixon, Fellow of EurASc and Robert Ramsay Chair in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Alabama (USA), who passed away on 2 January 2026, at the age of 76. Born on 3 December 1949 in Houston, Texas, Prof. Dixon was a world-leading scientist in computational chemistry, internationally recognised for his pioneering contributions to fluorine chemistry, catalysis, environmental chemistry, and large-scale molecular simulations. He earned his B.Sc. in Chemistry from the California Institute of Technology and his Ph.D. from Harvard University, where he worked under Nobel Laureates William Lipscomb and Dudley Herschbach. Throughout his distinguished career, Prof. Dixon held senior academic and leadership positions at the University of Minnesota, DuPont Central Research, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, and later at the University of Alabama, where he served from 2004 onwards. His work played a decisive role in the development of computational chemistry as a strategic tool in industry and environmental protection, notably contributing to the replacement of ozone-depleting chlorofluorocarbons and helping to protect the stratospheric ozone layer. Prof. Dixon was a central figure in the development of major scientific software infrastructures, including NWChem and the Molecular Sciences Software Suite, which received both R&D 100 and Federal Laboratory Consortium Technology Transfer Awards. He authored more than 900 scientific publications, held multiple patents, delivered hundreds of invited lectures worldwide, and mentored generations of students and young researchers. A Fellow of several leading scientific societies, including the European Academy of Sciences, Prof. Dixon will be remembered not only for his exceptional scientific legacy but also for his generosity as a mentor, collaborator, and colleague.
