Thank you for reminding me I wanted to listen to this

No, he was in second place last year behind "Katalin Karikó and others for work enabling mRNA vaccines."

As promised...

Who will win the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry?

Old favorites and some newcomers are on the list of predicted laureates for the coveted prize

Days later and I'm still not sure I have an answer for you, which possibly means I'm not sure we will. Hmmm

There is also the possibility I just don't drink much sparkling water when I go the the US - Land of the free tap water! With ice! Constantly refilled!

Thank you Matt

Oh man, proper chip shop chips, yes please

Nucleotide synthesis has been on my watch list for a while, but would they award the prize the year following the mRNA vaccine prize? Protein structure prediction and design has started creeping onto lists...

I have heard the Nobel Committee wants to award the prizes to "more recent" research. And it's definitely worthy of the prize, as so many discoveries are. But I tend to agree 2024 is not the year for this trio.
