Thudichum Young Scientist Award

Many congratulations to Martin Balouch for winning the 2024 Thudichum Young Scientist Award, presented bi-annually by the Phospholipid Research Centre to young scientists who have performed excellent research on phospholipids and have published their findings in renowned scientific journals. The award is named after the German physician and biochemist Johann Ludwig Wilhelm Thudichum (1829–1901) who pioneered phospholipid research while investigating the chemical composition of the brain. Martin received his award for his original research on drug permeation across lipid bi-layers, computational prodrug design, and co-permeation. Many congratulations for this well-deserved award!
