New York Times : Every two years, the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters announces the winners of a $1 million prize for outstanding work in three fields of special interest to Fred Kavli, the philanthropist who funds the prize: astrophysics, nanoscience, and neuroscience. This year’s winners are honored for their work in building giant telescopes (Roger Angel, Jerry Nelson, Raymond Wilson), creating artificial structures out of atoms and molecules (Donald Eigler, Nadrian Seeman), and elucidating the molecular mechanisms of neural transmission (James Rothman, Richard Scheller, Thomas Südhof).
