The 'Nobel Prize winners symposium' of IMDEA Nanociencia honours this year Nobel Prizes awarded in Physiology or Medicine, Physics and Chemistry categories, with three dedicated talks by researchers Lola Fernández Messina (UCM), Jorge Bravo Abad (UAM) and Marta Martínez (CNB-CSIC). The talks will provide information on the contributions of the 2024 Nobel Prize laureates in a didactic manner.

  • Dr. Lola Fernández Messina (Department of Cellular Biology, Universidad Complutense de Madrid) talks about

the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, awarded jointly to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun "for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation".

the Nobel Prize in Physics, awarded jointly to John J. Hopfield and Geoffrey E. Hinton "for foundational discoveries and inventions that enable machine learning with artificial neural networks".

the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, divided, one half awarded to David Baker "for computational protein design", the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper "for protein structure prediction".
