Hungarian biochemist Katalin Karikó has been awarded this year’s Grande Medaille, the French Academy of Sciences said on Tuesday.

Karikó, the vice president of BioNTech, which has led research on mRNA-based medicine since the 1990s, has played a major role in developing new vaccination strategies which have been used in the fight against Covid-19.

Commenting on the award, the University of Szeged noted the French Academy of Sciences founded the Grande Medaille in 1997, and it is bestowed upon a French or foreign scientist in alternate years.
