The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2024: Awarded with one half to David Baker for "computational protein design" and the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John Jumper for "protein structure prediction"
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2024 was awarded with one half to David Baker for "computational protein design" and the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John Jumper for "protein structure prediction."
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2024 is about proteins, life’s ingenious chemical tools. David Baker has succeeded with the almost impossible feat of building entirely new kinds of proteins. Demis Hassabis and John Jumper have developed an AI model to solve a 50-year-old problem: predicting proteins’ complex structures. These discoveries hold enormous potential.
