\n<\/aside>\n<\/div>\nA week of Nobel Prize announcements\u00a0kicked off Monday with Swedish scientist\u00a0Svante Paabo receiving the award in medicine\u00a0for unlocking secrets of Neanderthal DNA that provided key insights into our immune system.<\/p>\n
Three scientists jointly won the prize in physics Tuesday.\u00a0Frenchman Alain Aspect, American John F. Clauser and Austrian Anton Zeilinger\u00a0had shown that tiny particles can retain a connection with each other even when separated, a phenomenon known as quantum entanglement, that can be used for specialized computing and to encrypt information.<\/p>\n
The Nobel Prize in chemistry was awarded Wednesday to\u00a0Americans Carolyn R. Bertozzi and K. Barry Sharpless, and Danish scientist Morten Meldal\u00a0for developing a way of \u201csnapping molecules together\u201d that can be used to explore cells, map DNA and design drugs that can target diseases such as cancer more precisely.<\/p>\n
The 2022 Nobel Peace Prize will be announced on Friday and the economics award on Monday.<\/p>\n
The prizes carry a cash award of 10 million Swedish kronor (nearly $900,000) and will be handed out on Dec. 10. The money comes from a bequest left by the prize\u2019s creator, Swedish inventor Alfred Nobel, in 1895.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
