Announcements

We are pleased to announce that the 2024 Tu Youyou Award has been conferred upon Richard DiMarchi and Rolf Müller, in recognition of their significant contributions to natural products chemistry and medicinal chemistry.

Richard DiMarchi Indiana University, USA	Prof. Richard DiMarchi is a Distinguished Professor of Chemistry and Gill Chair in Biomolecular Sciences at Indiana University, USA. He is a member of the National Academy of Medicine and the National Inventors Hall of Fame. Dr. DiMarchi is a former Group Vice President at Eli Lilly and later at Novo Nordisk. He is recognized for his contributions to the discovery and development of rDNA-derived Humulin®, Humalog®, rGlucagon®, and Forteo®. His academic research has broadened the understanding of glucagon and incretin physiology and pioneered the discovery of single-molecule multi-mechanism agonists for the treatment of diabetes and obesity. The central element to success has been the chemical vision and technology to install within single molecules simultaneous agonism at related G-protein coupled receptors, coupled to the counter-intuitive discovery that glucagon and GIP agonism could synergize the therapeutic efficacy of GLP-1. These peptides and their conceptual approach have transformed the management of excessive body weight to a condition comparable to how hypertension, adult-onset diabetes, and excess cholesterol are medicinally managed.
“Professor DiMarchi was recognized by the 2024 Tu Youyou Award Committee members as being an exceptional leader in the medicinal chemistry of peptides and proteins of natural origin, and as a pioneer in the field of chemical biotechnology. His very important discoveries have led to breakthroughs in new drugs related to the therapy of diabetes and obesity. He has been named as an inventor on a very large number of patents, and he has had initially a highly successful scientific and administrative career in industry, which was followed by over two decades in academia as a distinguished professor.” —Prof. Dr. A. Douglas Kinghorn, Chair of the Award Committee
Rolf Müller Helmholtz Institute for Pharmaceutical Research Saarland (HIPS), Germany; Helmholtz Centre for Infections Research (HZI), Germany; Saarland University, Germany	Prof. Rolf Müller is the Founding and Managing Director of the Helmholtz Institute for Pharmaceutical Research Saarland (HIPS) and Professor of Pharmaceutical Biotechnology at Saarland University, Germany. Having received his training from the University of Bonn, he held research positions at the University of Washington, USA, and Braunschweig University of Technology, Germany, prior to his appointment as professor to Saarland University. His laboratory has dedicated itself to the exploration of bacterial natural-product biosynthetic pathways for more than 20 years and has extensive experience in working with myxobacteria and other microbial producer strains. Starting from the isolation and characterization of new microorganisms, the scope of work includes microbiology-, biotechnology-, bioinformatics-, and chemistry-based approaches to exploit these isolates as sources of new drugs with a special focus on novel anti-infectives. Müller and his team apply a variety of state-of-the-art analytical methods and biological assays to perform biological and chemical characterizations of the identified compounds. Prof. Müller has received several awards, including the prestigious Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize, the PHOENIX Pharmacy Research Award, the DECHEMA Prize, and the Inhoffen Medal, as well as being an elected member of acatech, Leopoldina, and the German Academy of Sciences and Literature.
“The 2024 Tu Youyou Award Committee members were highly impressed by the truly outstanding past and ongoing contributions of Professor Müller in both microbial natural products isolation chemistry and in biosynthesis, as well as in the development of lead compounds for their potential in treating human diseases, through his global connections with various major funding agencies. He is also a dedicated teacher who has trained numerous graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, and he has lectured on his research in countries all over the world.” —Prof. Dr. A. Douglas Kinghorn, Chair of the Award Committee

The achievements of Richard DiMarchi and Rolf Müller highlight the transformative impact of natural products chemistry and medicinal chemistry. We congratulate them and invite the global academic community and public to join us in celebrating their significant contributions.

World Telecommunication and Information Society Day (WTISD) 2025, which will be held on 17 May, marks 160 years since the founding of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), the United Nation’s agency for digital technologies. WTISD is celebrated to raise awareness of the potential that the internet and other information and communications technologies (ICTs) can bring to societies and economies.

This year’s theme is focused on the promotion of gender equality in digital spaces to foster the equitable and inclusive use of telecommunications and ICTs. While global internet use is gradually moving toward gender parity, significant gaps persist, particularly in developing countries. Efforts to bridge the digital divide are essential to ensure the benefits of new technologies reach all.

In recognition of WTISD 2025, MDPI supports global efforts to promote equitable access to digital technologies. Through open access publishing, we invite you to explore selected articles, Special Issues, and journals that span fields such as computer science, engineering, and physical science, encouraging knowledge-sharing and collaboration with the aim of a more inclusive digital society.

A message from the webinar Chair:

Vegetation cover maps, whether they focus on structural attributes, ecological aspects, or biomass content, are invaluable for understanding Earth’s ecosystems in a spatial context.

The advent of Earth Observation data has transformed vegetation mapping and trend analysis, delivering datasets with various spatial and spectral resolutions on a global scale. Vegetation mapping and analysis provide critical insights into the distribution and density of vegetation, while also highlighting the impact of environmental changes on biodiversity and ecosystems. The accurate interpretation of this remote sensing data necessitates sophisticated analytical techniques to manage their complexity and vastness.

Join us for an insightful webinar that explores cutting-edge machine learning methodologies and their role in vegetation analysis using Earth Observation (EO) data. This webinar features four scholars presenting their latest research on how machine learning and EO data can enhance vegetation monitoring and mapping. This will facilitate the exchange of insights and ideas among participants while fostering opportunities for future collaboration.

We are privileged to welcome esteemed research scientists and academics from recognized research institutions and universities in Australia. They will share their expertise and findings on the effective application of machine learning technology in Earth Observation data in obtaining essential information related to climate change, land use planning, ecosystem conservation, weed management, and agricultural management.
