Institute of Chemistry
Slovak Academy of Sciences
Bratislava, Slovakia

National non-university science and research institutions fulfill an important mission in most of the most developed countries of the EU and the world. SAS, like the academies of other Central European countries, plays a historically important role as the leading research organization of the country. The first mission of the SAS is to carry out frontier top basic research, leading to fundamental new discoveries and ideas. The second mission of the SAS is to make available the scientific infrastructure for the implementation of technically demanding research for all interested parties, whether from universities or other research and development organizations. The third mission is long-term strategic and applied research and development, where the SAS intensively and effectively cooperates with the business sector, the public sector and civil society to transfer existing knowledge into practice.

Environmental Chemistry
EAWAG
Dübendorf, Switzerland

Eawag is the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology and is part of the ETH Domain, which includes the two universities of ETH Zurich and ETH Lausanne (EPFL), the four independent research institutions of Empa, PSI, WSL and Eawag. Firmly anchored in its home country of Switzerland, but with a global network, Eawag is concerned with concepts and technologies for dealing sustainably with water bodies and with water as a resource. In collaboration with universities, other research institutions, public bodies, industry and non-governmental organizations, Eawag works to harmonize ecological, economic and social interests in respect of water usage. The Institute thus serves as a bridge between the scientific world and the ‘real world’.
