On August 22, the Baltic Assembly Prize in Science was presented to ISSP UL’s leading researcher Dr. phys. Roberts Eglītis for his research cycle "Theoretical predictions of new materials for energy storage and harvesting".
R. Eglītis is the winner of the Baltic Assembly 2020 Award. Last year's Baltic Assembly Prize winners, taking into account the restrictions and precautions imposed due to the pandemic caused by Covid-19, were honored each in their own country and time - in Estonia the ceremony took place in the autumn of 2020, but in Lithuania it is planned this autumn.
Nine literature, art and science experts from Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania assessed the nominated works and awarded the prizes. The Baltic Assembly Prize was founded in 1994 and has been awarded to many well-known figures representing the fields of culture, science and art.
