The Golden Morosoli is the highest honor awarded. The award, sponsored by the Lolita Rubial Foundation, recognizes individuals or institutions in the fields of culture, science, or education who have played "a significant role in Uruguayan cultural life."
Receiving the Golden Morosoli is a great personal honor for me as a Uruguayan; it is a recognition of my entire career. It also gives me great satisfaction that, in an award dedicated to culture, someone who works in science and technology is being recognized.
