2016 Nobel Prizes

In his will, Alfred Nobel left much of his wealth to establish the Nobel Prizes, awards to those who had "conferred the greatest benefit to mankind". Nobelprize.org welcomes this year's 11 new Nobel Laureates: three in Physics, three in Chemistry, one in Physiology or Medicine, one in Literature, one in Peace and two new Laureates in Economic Sciences. All of them are introduced at Nobelprize.org with presentations, videos, photos and interviews!
