I had the privilege of meeting Didier Queloz when he came to my school to give a talk. I was one of the few students invited to have lunch and talk with him. Very down to earth and charismatic person, extremely knowledgeable but he was able to explain difficult concepts in a way in which I could understand. I'm very happy to see that he has won a nobel prize. Thoroughly deserved.

I personally preferred the 2017 format in which the Nobel Laureates were given a lot more time to interact amongst each other wherein the conversation just flowed without much mediation. This format seems a lot moe like a news panel mediated by an anchor.

[@YMHop]

Aditya Tamar who cares about the format? No comments on their work or new insight that wasn’t discussed?

[@ruffsnap]

I think this one is perfectly fine.

[@tjknox8936]

[@VivekTiwari03]

I don't think so man. Banerjee was personally hosted by the hon'ble Prime Minister as soon as he landed to India. In fact, one of the purposes of Nobel is to award them to lesser known people, so that more folks know about them. Have a look at the comment section, more people know about him now than ever.

Having spent 51 yrs as the daughter of a brilliant research chemist (albeit not a Nobel Prize winner) I can not tell you the amount of joy I felt listening to these Laureates. You can take the person out of the laboratory, but never take the laboratory out of the person. I would listen to my father for hours on end and never tire. It made no matter that I couldn't understand most of what he was saying!!! I truly thank you all.

One thing I take away from all those Nobel Minds conversations is passion. They really enjoy doing what they do and the prize is just a byproduct.

The Noble Minds series inspires me more to become a scientist myself. Hats off to all the laureates and their incredible achievements.

I graduated in 6 months. Do it!! It's been fun but you have to choose a cause and science you are most passionate about or it can be a drag. I am ecology, I love it but I HATE my biomedical classes, hate it. Do a science that makes you passionate or science can be the most boring, tedious job on earth.

I enjoyed so much and learned a lot on this traditional round-table discussion from the noble and Nobel minds of these wonderful scientists! I observe one commonality among them: the passion to discover something new within their respective chosen sphere of science and interest and use it for the benefit of mankind! During their discussion, I sensed out the profound concern each one has on climate change which serves to affirm its reality and the urgency to mitigate it on a global scale. At the concluding remarks, I find it inspiring and encouraging as most of them affirms personally to continue working on their chosen field for as long as they can which is a time-tested effective way to discover something new, while noting on the need to address the here-and-now human needs and concerns as well! Thank you.
