In 2005 Makeš was awarded the "Gratias Agit Award" by the
Czech Ministry of Culture
.

Skokloster
.
Internationally, he is recognized for his scientific approach regarding the disclosure of imitation paintings and for his two patents in biochemistry. Today, Makeš continues his research with
polarographic analysis and is thus in the footsteps of Jaroslav Heyrovský who received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1957. Makeš's latest research focuses on how we[who?] can best save our[who?] cultural heritage.[1]
