Four researchers from Leipzig University have been elected to the prestigious scientific academy Academia Europaea: chemist Professor Evamarie Hey-Hawkins, medical scientist Professor Markus Löffler, historian Professor Stefan Troebst, and communications researcher Professor Christian Pentzold. Founded in Cambridge in 1988, the Academy’s aim is to promote research and education in Europe and to strengthen international and interdisciplinary exchange.
Professor Evamarie Hey-Hawkins, Emeritus Professor of Inorganic Chemistry, says: “This is a special recognition of my scientific achievements and my broad commitment to academia worldwide. The Academia Europaea stands for many of the values I hold dear. It encourages thinking and research that go beyond national and disciplinary boundaries.”
Professor Markus Löffler, Emeritus Professor of Medical Informatics, Statistics and Documentation, comments on his election: “Being elected to the Academia Europaea means a great deal to me. I see it as recognition of my many activities in the fields of clinical research, epidemiology, the modelling of biological processes and medical informatics. And I view it as a mandate to continue engaging with science and standing up for academic freedom.”
Professor Stefan Troebst, Emeritus Professor of Cultural History for Eastern Europe at the Global and European Studies Institute at Leipzig University and former Deputy Director of the Leibniz Institute for History and Culture of Eastern Europe (GWZO), says: “For me as an historian of Eastern Europe, the Academia Europaea’s focus on both halves of Europe makes it particularly attractive.”
Professor Christian Pentzold, a communications researcher whose work focuses on internet-based communication and cooperation, digital media technologies and human-robot interaction, says: “I am delighted to have been elected to the Academy. The Academia Europaea brings together scholars across countries and disciplines, promoting the exchange of knowledge beyond borders. As a member, I look forward to actively contributing to this exchange.”
The new members will be formally welcomed at the annual conference of the Academia Europaea on 16 October 2025 in Barcelona.
