Nobel Prize 2024 for Chemistry | Proteins | Artificial Intelligence | David Baker | Demis Hassabis | Jhon M.Jumper
3 Scientists share the 2024 Nobel Prize for Chemistry in the understanding of Proteins.
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2024 will be divided in three ways.
As per the media, Dr. David Baker, who is the Professor of Biochemistry at the University of Washington, United States, won half the prestigious Nobel Prize award for his pioneering research in computational protein design and then also Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper are Google Deepmind experts from the UK. Others won the rest.
Together, they are transforming chemistry and expanding our understanding as well as the possibilities of what can be achieved with proteins in science and medicine.
Individually and certainly together, they represent a profound change in the nature of protein chemistry — what we do with them to understand how life works and use that knowledge for science (and medicine).
Computing and Artificial Intelligence (AI) power the way in which brand-new types of protein come into being, with these scientists unlocking the obscurity surrounding these proteins; experts at Google DeepMind determined through the use of their own artificial intelligence technology to predict every known protein structure that exists, while David Baker solved one from mysteries around exactly what life is constructed within.
These British scientists, according to the Royal Committee underpinning their discoveries, are innovative because they can aid in making vaccines at lightning speed and simultaneously anchor an environmentally friendly chemical industry.
Along with the Nobel Prize, the prize pot of 11 million Swedish krona (SEK), which is equal to $1M, will be shared with 3 of the winners.
