Professor Ga\u017eo began his research on coordination compounds in 1956 at the Slovak Technical High School, when he published two papers in a journal published by Springer, thereby becoming a pioneer in this field in Slovakia. Together with the House of Scientists of the Slovak Academy of Sciences, he organized a symposium on the structure and properties of coordination compounds from September 2\u20134, 1964, as a side event to the 8th ICCC in Vienna. This symposium was attended by approximately 180 scientists from 18 countries<strong>. In honor of J\u00e1n Ga\u017eo\u2019s legacy, the ICCBIC organizing committee established the J\u00e1n Ga\u017eo Award, which is presented during the conference to prominent figures in the local chemical community.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Recipients of this award include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">prof.
