Emmanuelle Charpentier will get a Medicine Nobel Prize in the next 5 years

You are a amazing to predict the future

It's really only a matter of time that this technology would win a Nobel prize, no doubt at all. They did win the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, which is something many biologists have won.

Woaaah she taught my bio lectures...

[@Nlenov]

knjfriends102 I think I beat you. I was student with Emmanuelle, and I introduced her to the web. She was looking at an alternative way of browsing scientific literature. I showed her medline and gave her NCSA mosaic, which was then the main internet browser. Hey, wait! When you think about it, I am the reason why she made her discovery ;-)

+Nicolas Le Novere Omg, so jealous! Emmanuelle is one of my heroes. I hope to have a career like hers following my UG graduation this summer! :)
P.S. It's so strange to imagine doing a degree without Scopus or PubMed.... :D

I think I beat you all. I used to explain biology and genetics to Emmanuelle when we were both pupils in primary school. Hey, wait! When you think about it, I am the reason why she made her discocery:)

[@arctic_haze]

Even now 2 years later most people dont understand how epoch-making CRISPR-CAS9 is.

That's weird. I did the same thing! I paused on page 371 and immediately searched for this prize.
