The Nobel Prizes in Physiology or Medicine, Physics and Chemistry have been announced this week. The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to Yoshinori Ohsumi "for his discoveries of mechanisms for autophagy". The Nobel Prize in Physics was divided, one half awarded to David J. Thouless, the other half jointly to F. Duncan M. Haldane and J. Michael Kosterlitz "for theoretical discoveries of topological phase transitions and topological phases of matter". The Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded jointly to Jean-Pierre Sauvage, Sir J. Fraser Stoddart and Bernard L. Feringa "for the design and synthesis of molecular machines".
Three of the Nobel Prize winners, Professor Yoshinori Ohsumi of the Tokyo Institute of Technology, Tokyo, Japan; Sir J. Fraser Stoddart of Northwestern University, Evanston, USA; and Professor Bernard L. Feringa of Groningen University, The Netherlands, have published in IUCr Journals.
