We are pleased that this year’s Remsen Award goes to Prof. Bettina Lotsch, Director at the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research in Stuttgart. The Remsen Award was established in May 1946 to commemorate the career of Ira Remsen, first Professor of Chemistry and second President of the Johns Hopkins University, as a chemist, educator, and administrator. The Remsen Award Lecturers are chemists of outstanding achievement, in keeping with Ira Remsen’s long and devoted career as an exponent of the highest standards in teaching and research in chemistry.

We warmly congratulate Bettina Lotsch on this award!
