The Nobel Prize in chemistry was awarded to David Baker, Demis Hassabis, and John Jumper for their groundbreaking work in protein design and structure prediction.
Demis Hassabis and John Jumper cracked the code of protein structure prediction with artificial intelligence, allowing scientists to understand any known protein's complex structure.
David Baker's computational tools enable the design of new proteins with novel shapes and functions, opening up endless possibilities for humankind's benefit.
The committee highlighted how Baker's work has led to applications in pharmaceuticals, vaccines, nanomaterials, and tiny sensors, enhancing our understanding of proteins.
