Prof. Aziz Sancar mentions about CRISPR. Now, the work is recognized for Noble in 2020.

Aziz Sancar is the coolest and warmest person on the table.

[@dogaozsahin2894]

I loved that at the end Prof. Sancar shook Prof. Campbell's hand and picked up the paper in front of him which -i think- the worm poem was written on. I imagine Sancar takes the poem home and still reads it from time to time :)

Aziz Sancar what a lovely human 🙏

[@tharushadeegala8537]

We need the Literature Laureates every year, please!!

[@user-ll2yj7dv3h]

So glad to see Angus' interviewed. Our landmark paper on poverty (one of his brainchild) launched us into scientific research. Today, we're so proud to have started that journey. Congratulations to him once again - well deserved honour!

[@jravindranath8345]

delightful. special thanks to Sancar, Svetlana for touching humanistic aspects of knowledge.

[@biggypoppa2294]

She made that intro hers and only hers 😂👌🌎🧙🏽‍♂️🧿

[@maiaciobanu8366]

I understand that the lady needs to moderate the conversation but i really dislike her style, she speaks for the people, she interrupts and makes the conversation less fluid...which makes it harder to follow. Change the moderator!

[@edwardjones2202]

Yeah everyone does. There are complaints under the video for every year she does this. 30:10 was cringe-inducing. The guy was answering her question and she spoke over him to someone else with some gag about sausages.

[@BartAlder]

I find it very curious that so many comments on these Nobel round table discussions are about the moderator being annoying (who does this woman think she is? The woman is annoying. Why is that woman interrupting these great geniuses? etc etc) when it seems to me that the laureates themselves have no problem with her behaving like a, you know, actual moderator with a, you know, actual job to do. It's almost as if the people receiving the Nobel prizes are fundamentally less rigid, less presuming and more accepting of 'that woman' than the average KZbin commentator. Shocking thought, I know.

[@peter_castle]

Very good comment

[@yulonglian2137]

People like to be polite in conversation. I highly doubt that one of them would openly criticize her on that stage.

[@aemontarg6934]

@@yulonglian2137 it’s obvious the moderator is pushing a narrative, I.e compassion and journalism and politics, which generally have very little to do with their line of work.

Please 🙏🙏 peace of mind for you so you are not everything 😘😘💟😐

[@denariuswright8284]

That was such a pleasant discussion! I dont agree with every statement made, but it was such a pleasant experience to learn about their perpectives and motives! Turn up! Angus Deaton and Svetlana Alexievich were my favorites in this interview ! -DW, The Grooveman (Jan.13.2018)

i definately agree

Sometimes gathering many Nobel prizes is not the answer sometimes it is, Long-Term Capital Management is a good example.

Nobel Laureates in Peace, Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, and Economic Sciences talk about the theories, discoveries and research behind their awards, and the value of science. Why can't they start awarding for energy works as well, this will shift focus towards Renewable energy. Thereby, improving state of climate change and carbon emission. @/renewableenergy @/climatechange @/albarioengineering @/hydrogen @/photovoltaics @/sustainability

Why is literature a nobel prize?

[@davidandrade1402]

It all goes back to the society in which the prizes were created and how a strong influence literature was back then. Now, in the modern world it may seem that it is not that of a big thing, but fiction books do have an impact in societies around the world. It isn't as easy to watch as years ago but arts and politics are heavily affected by literature.

[@mikaundresantos4628]

Because literature is every action the humankind does to record his limitless states, conditions and forms.

[@edwardjones2202]

Why not?

[@thomasalbert7622]

peace and literature prizes given for political reasons. For example, if you are a member of a minority community in your country and you criticize the state in your works, you will be awarded the literature prize.

it's ridicolous. I stopped watch the debate because of her.

[@BartAlder]

It wasn't ever meant to be a debate so maybe your expectations were misplaced from the outset.

[@snkhuong]

@@BartAlder pretty sure he meant this show. Probably english wasn't his first language

[@ChienHoang-jb7bk]

She can understand English but she could not speaks???

[@thisisajaym]

she can speak english but not as fluent as her native language. Thus avoiding it to convey her ideas more smoothly.

[@lilpotato1950]

explaining a topic as detailed and correct as possible is always easier and less risky in your native language. your words weight different depending on the language you´re speaking in. :)

[@timothydavies7417]

this is a joke

[@fuffofuffino2017]

A Nobel in literature who can't speak english?! .....nice

[@creativefruittree3480]

omg literature is not just english

[@GuillermoBenjamin]

The bottom of all this at least you can write, and it's the good thing about your comment.

[@robcurios740]

@@creativefruittree3480 If she is so good at it why can't she learn another language? My grandpa said a ton of shit way above Shakesphear's league but it was in his own language and no one gave a shit about it.

The Sun doesn't revolves around you.

[@SergeantColdgirl]

@fuffo fuffino You need to go back to school since the definition of *literature* is written works, especially those considered of superior or lasting artistic merit. Essentially, literature is all written works that exists among humans, you nitwit. Rather than your assumption that literature was synonymous with the English language.
