6 Oct 2021 The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2021 awarded “for the development of asymmetric organocatalysis” Building molecules is a difficult art. Benjamin List and David MacMillan are awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2021 for their development of a precise new tool for molecular construction: organocatalysis. This has had a great impact on pharmaceutical research and has made chemistry greener.
6 Oct 2021 The Nobel Prize in Physics 2021 awarded "for groundbreaking contributions to our understanding of complex systems" Three Laureates share this year’s Nobel Prize in Physics for their studies of chaotic and apparently random phenomena. Syukuro Manabe and Klaus Hasselmann laid the foundation of our knowledge of the Earth’s climate and how humanity influences it.
6 Oct 2021 Demonstration of the Prometheus Panta for protein stability on October 12 On October 12 the Centre of Molecular Structure with experts from NanoTemper company are holding a demonstration of the Prometheus Panta for protein stability with particle size determination and of the new Monolith MST device with better temperature control for the characterization of biomolecular interaction.
5 Oct 2021 The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2021 awarded "for the discoveries of receptors for temperature and touch" Our ability to sense heat, cold and touch is essential for survival and underpins our interaction with the world around us. In our daily lives we take these sensations for granted, but how are nerve impulses initiated so that temperature and pressure can be perceived? This question has been solved by this year’s Nobel Prize laureates.
