Wednesday’s Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to a trio of chemists from the US and Denmark, who have laid the groundwork for a more functional form of chemistry.
Americans Carolyn Bertozzi and Barry Sharpless, along with Denmark’s Morten Meldal, were honored “for the development of click chemistry and biochemistry,” the jury said.
Barry Sharpless has just become the fifth individual to be awarded two Nobel Prizes.
He followed in the couple’s footsteps #Nobel Prize laureates John Bardeen, Marie Skłodowska Curie, Linus Pauling and Frederick Sanger.
