International recognition for the Bulgarian school of electrochemistry: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Plamen Nikolov elected a member of the Alpha-Beta Society

Associate Professor Dr. Plamen Nikolov, Director of the “Academician Evgeni Budevski” Institute of Electrochemistry and Energy Systems (IEES-BAS) at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, has been elected as the 33rd member of the prestigious international scientific Alpha-Beta Society. The news was announced on 15 September during this year’s European Lead Battery Conference (ELBC’2026) in Vienna. Membership of the Alpha-Beta Society is strictly limited and is expanded by only one new member per year. Members of the society are internationally recognised scientists and specialists who have made an exceptional contribution to the development of science and technology relating to lead-acid batteries. With the election of Assoc. Prof. Nikolov, the number of representatives of the Bulgarian school of electrochemistry of lead-acid batteries in the society has risen [...]

Bulgarian scientists uncover the key to a rare genetic disorder

Rare diseases affect 1 in 2,000 people which means over 350,000–400,000 Bulgarians and at least 30 million Europeans. To date, 7,000–8,000 rare diseases have been identified, the majority of which are of unknown origin, and over 90 per cent of which have no treatment. Elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying these diseases is of paramount importance for medical science and human health.

Every human cell contains 30 million nucleosomes (the basic building blocks of chromatin), and each of these consists of four core proteins around which the DNA is wound. The DNA is represented by blue lines wound around the four proteins (grey circles). The individual [...]

An international school on nuclear physics, neutron physics and applications held in Nessebar

From 13 to 18 September, the 24th International School on Nuclear Physics, Neutron Physics and Applications was held in Nessebar. The event was organised by the Institute for Nuclear Research and Nuclear Energy – BAS, with the support of the Bulgarian National Science Fund, Kozloduy NPP EAD, “Kozloduy NPP – New Capacity” and the State Enterprise “Radioactive Waste”. This edition of the School was attended by eminent scientists from leading scientific organisations and universities around the world, as well as young physicists and researchers from various countries, including Bulgaria, Italy, France, Germany, China, Japan, South Korea, Romania and others. The scientific programme covered a wide range of topical issues in the fields of nuclear physics, neutron physics and their applications. The latest research findings in [...]

“Current Issues in Science” hosts a lecture by Prof. Nikolai Spassov

  On 17 September, Prof. Nikolai Spassov from the National Museum of Natural History gave a lecture at BAS entitled “The first bipedal hominids originated in the Balkans, not in Africa”. The lecture took place as part of the academic seminar “Current Issues in Science”. Prof. Spassov is a zoologist, palaeontologist and palaeoanthropologist. He is the author of more than 280 scientific publications, many of which have appeared in leading international journals. His main contributions are in the fields of mammalian systematics and evolution, palaeozoogeography and early human evolution. During his lecture, Prof. Spassov examined one of the key issues in the field of palaeoanthropology which has long been the subject of serious debate: the time and place of the origin of the first bipedal [...]

The Institute of Microbiology marks International Microorganism Day

International Microorganism Day – 17 September – was marked in the conference hall of the “Stephan Angeloff” Institute of Microbiology (IMicB) at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (BAS). This year’s event took place as part of a formal session of the National Seminar on General Virology, Infections and Antimicrobials at the Union of Scientists in Bulgaria and the Seminar of national importance on Infectious Microbiology at IMicB– BAS. The celebration of this day began in 2017 at the suggestion of the Portuguese Society of Microbiology with the support of the Federation of European Microbiological Societies (FEMS). The aim of the initiative is to promote the history and contribution of microbiology to modern medicine, biotechnology and environmental protection as well as to inspire young people to [...]

Seminar: ‘Bulgarian science and business in dialogue with the European defence industry’

A specialised seminar as part of the “Security and Defence” National Science Programme was organised on 16 September by the Center for National Security and Defense Research (CNSDR-BAS) and the Joint Innovation Centre of BAS. The main theme of the forum centred on opportunities for collaboration and cooperation in the fields of defence and high technology, and it attracted considerable interest amongst representatives of Bulgarian scientific organisations, universities, defence industry firms and innovative companies. The seminar was opened by Mr. Kamen Iliev, Director of CNSDR-BAS, who highlighted the importance of the event for deepening cooperation between the institutes of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences and international high-tech companies with a view to the transfer of knowledge and technology in the fields of defence, national security [...]
