ON THE BLOCK: An Ig Nobel celebrant won a date with Nobelist Dudley Herschbach. The Annals of Improbable Research followed tradition in its "Fifth First Annual Ig Nobel Prize Ceremony," honoring the 1995 Ig Nobel laureates with its own special version of pomp. Prizes-awarded to those whose achievements "cannot or should not be reproduced"-were presented by Nobelists Sheldon Glashow (physics 1979), Dudley Herschbach (chemistry 1986), Joseph Murray (physiology or medicine 1990), and Richard Robe
1991 Nobel Prize Winners Sparked Fundamental Advances
Rebecca Andrews | Nov 24, 1991 | 10 min read
The 1991 Nobel Prize winners in science were announced last month, and for the first time in 43 years, none of the laureates is from the United States. Yet their work--in nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, phase transitions in materials science, and patch-clamp methodologies--collectively has influenced research in the U.S. and throughout the world. As is typical of Nobel Prize winners, their pioneering advances have changed the way science is done across the spectrum of scientific discip
Molecular Structures Provide Insights Into Larger Questions In Biology

Editor's Note: This is the second part of a two-part series on the field of structural biology. Part 1, presented in the Aug. 22, 1994, issue of The Scientist (page 14), discussed the evolution of this booming discipline. This article focuses on structural biology's key areas of basic and applied research and looks ahead to its future. Following are some of the professional organizations whose memberships include structural biolo
