The ceremony took place on June 17 in Halle (Saale), where the Leopoldina welcomed its new members of Class III – Medicine.

With around 1,700 members from nearly all fields of science, it represents German science internationally and provides independent, transparent, and forward-looking advice to policymakers and the public. The Leopoldina promotes the freedom and value of science, interdisciplinary exchange, and the responsible use of scientific knowledge for the benefit of people and nature.
