The European Academy (Academia Europaea) announces the list of 248 scientists who were elected to the academy in 2015. Amongst them is Prof. Ivan Dikic, director of the Institute of Biochemistry 2 at the Medical School Goethe University and founding director of the Buchmann Institute for Molecular Sciences (BMLS).

The Academia Europaea was founded in 1988 as a European Academy of humanities, social, physical and life sciences as well as mathematics, engineering and medicine.

This broad assembly of disciplines and the pan-European distribution of its members make the Academia unique amongst other national Academies. “I am honored to accept a membership in the European Academy and will be glad to contribute to its scientific and educational programs”, stated Ivan Dikic.

In addition, Ivan Dikic is a member of the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina, the Croatian Academy of Medical Sciences and the European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO).
