Nobel Prizes and COVID-19: Slow, basic science may pay off

Read full article: Nobel Prizes and COVID-19: Slow, basic science may pay off

The Nobels, with new winners announced starting Monday, Oct. 5, 2020, often concentrate on unheralded, methodical, basic science. Itโ€™s that type of basic science that the Nobels usually reward, often years or decades after a discovery, because it can take that long to realize the implications. Basic research comes first. โ€œWithout basic science, you wonโ€™t have cutting-edge applied science,โ€ said Frances Arnold, a Caltech chemical engineer who won the 2018 Nobel in chemistry. John Mather, who won the 2006 physics Nobel for cosmology, which is the study of the origin of the universe and is thus the ultimate basic science, said nearly everything we use around us is there because of basic science.
