chemistry and chemical technology science and solution of Latvian science and population
education problems. For achievement of this aim, one of the missions LEF Program is to unbind
and encourage creativity of Latvian youth and take care of its productive use and development
security.
Encouraging scholarships are awarded in tender procedure for one semester. Within the Solomon
Hiller scholarship framework JSC „Olainfarm” will pay a scholarship in amount of 50 LVL to

from University of Latvia and Riga Technical university.
In total 11 students with their works have applied in the tender for the Solomon Hiller

of chemistry.
Solomon Hiller is a person of figure in the world of organic chemistry in Latvia. He has been
a chemist with a bright organizational talent who has devoted his life to the synthesis
of biologically physiological active compounds. In the second part of the 50th he has founded
the Institute of organic synthesis which successfully operates nowadays as well. Owing to the
