Nobel prize in chemistry awarded for mastering structures of proteins

David Baker, Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper have been awarded the 2024 Nobel prize in chemistry for research on predicting protein structures and designing new proteins

The Nobel prize in chemistry 2024 has been awarded to David Baker, Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper for their work on understanding the structure of proteins, which play vital roles in all living organisms. Hassabis and Jumper, of Google DeepMind, developed an artificial intellligence that predicts the structure of proteins. Baker, at the University of Washington, has been recognised for his work on designing new proteins.

The chemistry prize is third Nobel awarded so far this year. On 8 October, the 2024 Nobel prize in physics was awarded to John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton for their work on artificial neural networks. On 7 October, the 2024 Nobel prize in physiology or medicine went to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for their discovery that tiny pieces of RNA called microRNAs play a key role in controlling genes.

Last year?s Nobel prize in chemistry went to three of the developers of quantum dots ? particles so small that their electrical and optical properties are influenced by quantum physics.
