You mean that a Nobel prize is going to real people for real achievements, and not to political activists. Wow that's a turn up.

I just saw a post from PZ Myers, a biologist and associate professor at the University of Minnesota, Morris how an institute tried to jump in and claim some of Doudna's and Charpentier's credit but the Nobel committee made the right selection. 😀
