Excellent Nobel Prize. My suggestion for next year: chemical engineering. Nobel himself was an engineer, and the prize awards achievements that "conferred the greatest benefit to humankind". Furthermore, the Prize should also be given to "improvements". When did that happen the last time?

✨Exciting news - the Alexandrova Group is now on Bluesky!✨ Hello, friends on #chemsky and #compchemsky. We're glad to be here! Stay tuned for the latest #compchem 💻 research and news from the lab!
