Nobel Prize in Chemistry: The Nobel Prize in Chemistry awarded to Emmanuelle Charpentier and Jennifer a. doudna

This time the digital desktop: Triumph of women in the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. The two women jointly received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2020. They are Emanuel Carpentier and Jennifer A. Dodna. The authorities shared this year’s Nobel Prize between the two. The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences announced their names at 3:30 pm Indian time on Wednesday. The names of the two women were revealed at a ceremony at the Royal Institute of Sciences.

According to the Swedish Academy of Sciences, Emmanuel Carpentier and Jennifer A. for contributing to the development of a genome editing or engineering method. Dodna received the Nobel this year.

What is the genome? In fact, the genome is the general DNA of an organism. Genome editing is the process of separating DNA from the genome. However, there are different methods. The two scientists have contributed to the development of a specific method.

Three scientists have received the Nobel Prize in recognition of the discovery of a new ‘hepatitis C’ virus in coronavirus infections around the world. The Nobel Committee announced on Monday that British scientist Michael Houghton had received the award together with American scientists Harvey J. Alter and Charles M. Rice for discovering a new virus. The Nobel Committee has decided to award the prize to three scientists for their important contribution to the fight against blood-borne diseases in the world by discovering the ‘Hep C’ virus, one of the main causes of liver cirrhosis and liver cancer. However, they discovered the virus 11 years ago.

In 1915, Albert Einstein sharpened Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation and proposed the General Theory of Relativity. Where a black hole exists, more authoritative ideas were given about its structure. But even Einstein couldn’t gather enough material to prove his theory. Fifty years after that source, Roger Penrose began to investigate. In 1975 his research showed for the first time how (stars) went ‘silently’ and gave birth to black holes. He was the first to successfully demonstrate by means of a “mathematical model” that the secret of the birth of a black hole is hidden in Einstein’s theory. The Nobel Committee recognized Penrose for his contribution on this day. Penrose, professor of mathematics at Brickbeck College in Great Britain, answers many unknown questions about black holes from his theory of “trapped surfaces”.
