Every year when it’s Nobel Prize time, I remember the Big Bang Theory episode when Sheldon and Amy found out they won the prize for their discovery of super asymmetry. Makes me laugh every single time.

Sheldon and Amy win, Leonard slaps Sheldon

Well deserved! As is the dragging U Penn is getting for claiming claiming credit as if nobody would mention that it demoted Karikó and mocked her research. Love to see it.

The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2023 was awarded to Moungi Bawendi, Louis Brus and Alexei Ekimov “for the discovery and synthesis of quantum dots.”

Independently of each other, Ekimov and Brus succeeded in creating quantum dots, and Bawendi revolutionised the chemical production.

Quantum dots now illuminate computer monitors and television screens based on QLED technology. They also add nuance to the light of some LED lamps, and biochemists and doctors use them to map biological tissue.
