The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2026 was awarded to Karl Deisseroth, Peter Hegemann and Georg Nagel \u201cfor their discoveries concerning light-gated ion channels and optogenetics\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are being rewarded for the discovery of the Chlamydomonas protein, channelrhodopsin. Channelrhodopsin forms light-gated ion channels that open in response to light. Karl Deisseroth transformed the protein into a light-controlled switch for nerve cells. The Nobel laureates have laid the foundation for a new era in neuroscience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nobel prize jewelry shows the three dimensional structure of the protein channelrhodopsin, in silver 925. Shown here on an image of the alga Chlamydomonas.<\/p>\n\n\n

The Nobel Prize in Physics in 2026 was awarded to Francis Halzen \u201cfor decisive contributions to the IceCube Neutrino Observatory and the discovery of high-energy neutrinos of astrophysical origin\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The IceCube Neutrino Observatory consists of a cubic kilometer of ice equipped with light sensors. With IceCube, researchers can capture neutrinos from extremely high-energy processes far out in the universe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year\u2019s Nobel jewelry is an IceCube made in silver 925 sheet, with a neutrino track in silver wire covered with 23K gold leaf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2026 was awarded to Henri Kagan and Kenso Soai \u201cfor the discovery of non-linear effects and autocatalysis in asymmetric organic synthesis\u201d. They have shown how homochirality can arise spontaneously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kenzo Soai designed the first chemical reaction\u2014the Soai reaction\u2014in which chiral molecules were created from a non-chiral mixture, and in which only one of the two possible mirror-image forms was produced.<\/p>\n\n\n

This year\u2019s Nobel Prize jewelry shows the product of the Soai reaction: a pyridyl alkanol. The molecule is chiral, with the nitrogen atoms represented as 925 silver spheres and the OH group as an 18K gold sphere.<\/p>\n\n\n
