Together with the Real Sociedad Española de Química, the Hermanos Elhuyar - Hans Goldschmidt Lecture was established in 1998. It took place for the first time a year later in Spain. Professor Hans-Heinrich Limbach from Berlin was invited.
The Elhuyar brothers were both passionate mineralogists and chemists. They both studied in Paris and went to the Freiberg Mining Academy. They continued their education through educational trips to Central and Northern Europe. In 1783 the brothers published their research on the extraction of tungsten from wolframite. That makes them the discoverers of tungsten.
The chemist Hans Goldschmidt was born in Berlin in 1861. He studied in Berlin and later with Robert Wilhelm Bunsen at the University of Heidelberg, where he also received his doctorate. In 1894 he developed the thermite process, which is still important today. This redox reaction enabled the simple production of carbon-free metals such as iron, chromium and manganese and is still of great importance in rail construction today.
dr In his research, Millet deals with the use of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) to investigate biologically relevant proteins and enzymes. His research focus is on the delicate balance between protein stability and dynamics, which can lead to the development of new drugs, particularly in the area of rare diseases.
Professor Peter H. Seeberger and his working group are researching sugar-based vaccines, for example against malaria. It is thanks to him that oligosaccharides can be synthesized automatically, which is a major milestone for further research.
