On 12 January, a message was received that the European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO) had awarded a substantial grant to the researcher of Warwick University Algirdas Toleikis.
It is the first grant of this sort for a Lithuanian researcher. According to the young scientist A. Toleikis, this support opens up the way for him to return to Lithuania and gives the opportunity to establish a new research laboratory in his native country, at the Life Sciences Center of Vilnius University.
