The 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry celebrates three scientists who created a new class of cavity-forming molecules capable of capturing substances like carbon dioxide or pharmaceuticals, opening the door to powerful practical applications.
The 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics was jointly awarded to John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis for bringing quantum physics from the subatomic world onto a chip.
Dipa Ghindani, 2024 Lindau Alumna, describes how the Physics Meeting changed her perspective, drive, and confidence as a scientist.
After #LINO25, Alumna Sajal Arwish says nothing felt the same: the uniquely friendly, one-to-one exchanges with Nobel Laureates – from a panel on circular chemistry & sustainability to a Science Walk with Sir Stanley Whittingham – were truly life-changing.
It is a decade since the UN adopted the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals and this session will focus on the contribution of chemistry to achieving these goals. The panel is to discuss how chemistry research is contributing to overcoming challenges from climate and energy to environment and health.
From a lot of badges in his office to the synthesis and light lab.
