Akademikas Juozas Kulys: „Lietuva tikrai išeis į kitą mokslo lygmenį“

Abstract

Garsus biochemikas, Lietuvos mokslo premijos, Baltijos asamblėjos mokslo premijos laureatas akademikas prof. habil. dr. Juozas Kulys per savo mokslininko kelią gavo daugybę išskirtinių pasiūlymų kurti mokslą ir Vakaruose, ir Rytuose. „Nesigailiu, kad neišvykau“, – visgi pabrėžia mokslininkas.

The book “Mathematical Modeling of Biosensors: An Introduction for Chemists and Mathematicians” by Prof. Romas Baronas and Prof. Juozas Kulys was translated into the Arabic language and published at King Saud University, Saudi Arabia. This is the first Lithuanian scientific work translated into Arabic. “The writing process of the book was also unique. Approximately one-third of the book consists of analytical solutions, another part consists of numerical solutions, and the final part is dedicated to the Mathematics needed for these solutions. We, authors, were united not by universities, but by the idea to describe the operation of biosensors using a numerical approach. The book is not a collection of articles, we have influenced each other during the process of writing,” says Professor Juozas Kulys, the member of Lithuanian Academy of Science, who has been writing the book even during the Christmas time and Easter holidays. Today, the world-renowned professor does not think about resting on his academic laurels, but is concerned about the prevailing system, which does not prevent retention of young talented scientists leaving Lithuania. “I have had talented students who might have been luminaries in the academic world – all of them have either started their own business or have emigrated... Business is not that restricted as science is. And our politics is all about conformist reconciliation,” Professor Juozas Kulys sadly observes.
