Podcast appearances and mentions of david macmillan

David MacMillan, 2021 års nobelpristagare i kemi, kommer från enkel bakgrund i Skottland, den verkliga arbetarklassen som han säger. Han vill att fler skotska barn med liknande uppväxt ska få samma möjligheter som han, och satsade alla sina prispengar i en fond för det. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. När David MacMillan var barn hade han aldrig träffat någon som gått på universitet. Men han hade en grundskolelärare, Miss MacKean, som var fantastisk på att vidga vyerna för sina elever. Och två föräldrar, Billy och May, som inte själva hade hög utbildning, men som ansåg att det var viktigt för sina barn. Pappan var stålverksarbetare och mamman hembiträde.När David MacMillan blev nobelpristagare insåg han att han inte behövde pengarna som hör till priset, eftersom det räcker med utmärkelsen. – Det är priset som är priset, säger han.Han ville använda pengarna till något som var viktigt för honom – att flera skotska barn från liknande enkla hemförhållanden skulle få möjlighet att läsa på universitet.Så han startade en stiftelse i sina föräldrars namn: ”The May and Billy MacMillan Foundation”. Den har nu växt genom donationer och ger stipendier till barn från låginkomstområden i Skottland.Reporter: Lena Nordlundlena.nordlund@sverigesradio.seProducent: Lars Broströmlars.brostrom@sverigesradio.se

David MacMillan fick Nobelpriset i kemi 2021 för upptäckten av ett nytt sätt att bygga ihop molekyler, som gör kemin enklare, renare och billigare. Han berättar om vägen till sin upptäckt, om hur kemi förändrar och förbättrar världen - och om varför hans Nobelpris gjorde att han förlorade 1 000 dollar. . Hosted on Acast.

Um auditório lotado para debater e inspirar novos cientistas em todo mundo. Assim foi o Diálogo Nobel Brasil 2024, evento organizado pela Academia Brasileira de Ciências em conjunto com o Nobel Prize Outreach, no dia 15 de abril. O Teatro Odylo Costa, filho, da Uerj, foi o palco que recebeu três ilustres convidados: Serge Haroche, vencedor do Nobel de Física, em 2012; May-Britt Moser, ganhadora do Nobel de Medicina, em 2014 e David MacMillan, eleito Nobel de Química, em 2021. O evento, em inglês, contou com tradução simultânea.

Peter J. Devlin, recently elected as a Governor of the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences, has worked on more than 70 films and been nominated for five Oscars including Black Panther, Transformers: Dark Side of the Moon, Transformers, Star Trek (2009) and Pearl Harbor. He received a BAFTA nomination for his work on Star Trek and a Primetime Emmy nomination for Star Trek: Picard. He has worked closely with some of the top directors in film, including Michael Bay, Ryan Coogler, Ron Howard and Patty Jenkins. Earlier in the year he wrapped his work on Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, and is thrilled to have just worked with Chris Pine, who is making his directorial debut with the upcoming film Poolman. A past CAS Board member, it was his first CAS nomination for Oliver Stone's Any Given Sunday that introduced him to the organization in 2000. Since then, he has received multiple nominations. Born and raised in Belfast, Northern Ireland, Devlin knew that he wanted to work in film after seeing Jaws as a teenager. Though his school principal told him his dreams were “pie in the sky,” he applied for a trainee audio assistant position at the BBC in Belfast in 1981. Initially thinking he might move into the camera department, he quickly realized his true interest was in production sound. To prepare for the interview, he spent his days in the local library reading as much about microphone principles, recording techniques and filmmaking as he could find. He got the job, which proved the perfect training ground, with the BBC's wide range of productions, from news, to sports, to concerts and to radio drama. “I had great mentors, and I learned about all of the different disciplines of sound there.” Devlin's focus and persistence were evident as he took the next step, writing to directors he admired, including Michael Mann. He still has the letter Mann sent him in 1987, inviting him to visit the set of Miami Vice. From there, Devlin forged connections with others in the industry, landing his first job in the United States, working in commercials. Eventually, he moved into television and film. Today, Devlin continues to adapt to the ever-changing technologies that enhance storytelling through production sound mixing. While he wishes that he had today's tech for some of the films he worked on in the past, he says, “The most important element will always be the work of the sound department as a team, boom operators and sound utilities. Their expertise allows me to concentrate on recording performance and create tracks that can elevate a scene when they are handed off to our colleagues in post production.” Devlin joins an illustrious group of past CAS Career Achievement Honorees including: Anna Behlmer, Willie Burton, Tom Fleischman, Les Fresholtz, Ed Greene, Tomlinson Holman, Doc Kane, William B. Kaplan, David MacMillan, Paul Massey, Scott Millan, Mike Minkler, Walter Murch, Andy Nelson, Chris Newman, Lee Orloff, Richard Portman, John Pritchett, Don Rogers, Gary Rydstrom, Dennis Sands, Randy Thom, Jim Webb, Jeffrey S. Wexler and Charles Wilborn.

"Try to follow your enthusiasm and do what you are really passionate about and what you really love to do.” As a child, Benjamin List thought chemists held the keys to the secrets of the universe. Luckily, by the time he learned this wasn't so, he was already hooked on doing chemistry experiments he found in books. Even today, he still feels passion for the field, and tries to surround himself with passionate researchers.Benjamin List was awarded the 2021 Nobel Prize in Chemistry together with David MacMillan, for his work in developing asymmetric organocatalysis, a tool for building new molecules, in cleaner and more efficient ways.Your host is Adam Smith, Chief Scientific Officer at Nobel Prize Outreach.

What's the background of a Noble Prize winner in chemistry, where are the next innovations in science, and how do you say “asymmetric organocatalysis”? Find out the answers on this week's episode as we chat with David MacMillan. From food production to industrial manufacturing, catalysts are all around us and play an outsized role in our lives. It's estimated that 90% of all commercially produced chemical products are reliant on catalysts at some point in the manufacturing process. Many of these reactions aren't sustainable. When studying as a post-doc at Harvard, David MacMillan had a eureka moment that led to groundbreaking research for green chemistry with his innovative organocatalysis.David also works to catalyze human connections and accelerate scientific advancement through his work at the Princeton Catalysis Initiative. His insights into catalyzing cross-field collaboration are sure to inspire!About David MacMillanDavid MacMillan is a Nobel laureate, the James S. McDonnell Distinguished University Professor of Chemistry at Princeton University, and director of the Princeton Catalysis Initiative, which accelerates research collaboration between scholars at Princeton and industry. He conceptualized and pioneered the field of asymmetric organocatalysis, and in 2021, he was named a co-recipient of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his work in the field.Along with numerous awards and commendations, Professor MacMillan has been elected a Fellow of the Royal Society and a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.Princeton Catalysis InitiativePCI catalyzes collaborations between molecular, physical, biological, and social scientists who conduct high-impact research across disparate fields of study. By creating a new mechanism conducive to interdisciplinary research, PCI unites historically distinct areas to unleash new thinking, novel technologies, and ground-breaking applications.Links: https://chemistry.princeton.edu/faculty/david-macmillanhttps://pci.princeton.edu/https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/chemistry/2021/macmillan/facts/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OrganocatalysisQualio WebsitePrevious episodes: https://www.qualio.com/from-lab-to-launch-podcastApply to be on the show: https://forms.gle/uUH2YtCFxJHrVGeL8Music by keldez

In this episode, meet football fan and chemist David MacMillan. Together with podcast host Adam Smith, he speaks about the importance of storytelling and his strong belief that “science is supposed to be about having fun, it is not supposed to be about intimidating people.” MacMillan shares his journey from a family where no one had gone to university to becoming a Nobel Prize laureate. He was awarded the chemistry prize in 2021 for the development of asymmetric organocatalysis. We also hear about how his upbringing in Scotland shaped him as a scientist and why his parents insisted that he went to university. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

(14:07) O premio Nobeld de quimica 2021 ganárono Benjamin List e David MacMillan polo desenvolvemento da organocatálise asimétrica. En 20 anos esta nova tecnoloxía ten revolucionado o mundo dos catalizadores, unha industria da que dependo un terzo do PIB mundial. A potencia da catálise asimétrica amósase na síntese da estricnina, o cubo de Rubik dos químicos orgánicos. Esta metodoloxía ten un rendemento 7000 veces maior que a síntese tradicional. Conversamos no CIQUS-USC co investigador científico do CSIC Fernando López, especialista en catálise asimétrica. (4:18) Por que ao estar coa regra entran ganas de comer trapalladas coma unha lima? Mito ou realidade? Nolo conta Laura Veiga @PingandoG na súa sección de divulgación sobre o ciclo menstrual. Envíanos as túas dúbidas. (0:40) e (39:00) O ano pasado o experimento muón g-2 do Laboratorio Nacional de Aceleradores Fermi, o FermiLAb, de Chicago fixo públicos os seus resultados da medida do momento magnético do muón. O resultado non cadra cos cálculos consensuados para esta magnitude polos teóricos. Isto podería significar que existen nova física ou novas partículas alén do Modelo Estándar. Ou non. A unha pequena colaboración de teóricos empregando un método alternativa semella que as contas cadran. En que rematará todo isto? Analizámolo con Carlos Salgado, director do Instituto Galego de Física de Altas Enerxias (IGFAE). www.efervesciencia.org

Årets yngsta nobelpristagare, 53-årige kemipristagaren David MacMillan, kommer från skotska arbetarklassen och det är något han, efter 30 år i USA, fortfarande identifierar sig starkt med. Han säger att det han lärde sig under uppväxten formade honom så att han kunde ta sig fram och komma så långt som han gjort. Det handlar om att vara snabb i repliken, att alltid se humor i saker och kunna skratta åt sig själv. Men att vara skotte innebär också att vara ödmjuk och självkritisk:"Skottar har det i sig" Vi skottar har det i oss, säger han, vilket innebär att han inte alls väntade sig det här priset, trots att andra har trott det. Till exempel hans pappa, stålverksarbetaren, som inte hann uppleva det här.Att vara med i fotbollsshow nästan lika stort som nobelprisetFörutom att brinna för sin forskning är han ett hängivet fotbollsfan, som älskar Glasgow-laget Rangers. Och när han, tack vare nobelpriset, fick vara med i sitt favoritradioprogram, skotska fotbolls-talkshowen Off the ball, sa han att det var nästan lika stort som nobelpriset. Och när han sedan blev uppringd och gratulerad av legendariska fotbollstränare Alex Ferguson var han tvungen att stanna bilen för att inte köra av vägen.Programmet sändes första gången den 2 december 2021.Lena Nordlund lena.nordlund@sverigesradio.se

Part 5 - Chat with Australian, David MacMillan and special guest Michael Henshaw.

I Kalifornien hade han Stilla Havets valar utanför fönstret. Nu får Benjamin List istället titta på Ruhr-området genom sitt fönster. Här finns goda förutsättningar att hitta nya katalysatorer. Små organiska molekyler, som aminosyror, fungerar bra att använda som katalysatorer, alltså för att underlätta kemiska reaktioner. De kan också få fram precis rätt sort av ett ämne - dess "högerhänta" eller "vänsterhänta" variant, vilket är viktigt när det gäller att ta fram eller tillverka läkemedel.Upptäckten som Benjamin List gjorde i slutet av 1990-talet, samtidigt som årets andre kemipristagare, David Macmillan, har satt igång mycket forskning. Vi har träffat List på Max Planck Institut Für Kohlenforschung i tyska Mülheim.Programledare: Camilla Widebeck camilla.widebeck@sverigesradio.se

David MacMillan spent years in SE Asia working on US POW/MIA cases. We discuss remains he found and turned over to the US Government for identification. We also set the record straight in regards to others who have tried to discredit David's research and his work to uncover burial locations of our MIAs. These people are trying to "Cash In" on the story of the son of a famous actor. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/storiesofsacrifice/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/storiesofsacrifice/support

2021 wurde der Chemie Nobelpreis an Benjamin List und David MacMillan für ihre Arbeiten zur asymmetrischen Organokatalyse vergeben. Was der Wissenschaftliche Hintergrund ist und warum man dafür einen Nobelpreis bekommt klären wir in dieser Folge von Kaffee trifft Tee.

El Nobel de Química 2021 ha sido para dos jóvenes científicos, el alemán Benjamin List y el escocés David MacMillan, afincado en Estados Unidos, por haber desarrollado una nueva herramienta para la química, la organocatálisis asimétrica, más limpia y ecológica gracias a un tercer tipo de catalizador. Esta nueva herramienta puede utilizarse para fabricar todo tipo de productos, desde medicamentos hasta aromas para la industria alimenticia.  El alemán Benjamin List y el escocés David MacMillan, éste último instalado en Estados Unidos son dos investigadores, relativamente jóvenes -ambos tienen 53 años -  y ya son ganadores del nobel de Química 2021. ¿Su logro? Haber revolucionado el campo de la química en el campo de los catalizadores, sustancias que controlan y aceleran las reacciones químicas. Hasta no hace mucho, se pensaba que sólo había dos tipos de catalizadores disponibles, los metales y las enzimas. Pero Benjamin List y David MacMillan, cada uno por su lado, pusieron en marcha un tercer tipo, utilizando pequeñas moléculas orgánicas, dando nacimiento a un nuevo tipo de catalizador o un nuevo procedimiento, la organocatálisis asimétrica, mucho más barato y limpio para el medio ambiente.  Esta nueva forma "ingeniosa" de construir moléculas puede utilizarse para fabricar todo tipo de productos, desde medicamentos hasta aromas para la industria alimenticia.  Goran Hansson, de la Real Academia Sueca de Ciencias, dijo el miércoles 6 de octubre del 2021 durante el anuncio del premio, que el trabajo de ambos científicos  ya ha tenido un impacto significativo en la investigación farmacéutica. Gran alegría en el ISQCH El Instituto de Síntesis Química y Catálisis Homogénea (ISQCH) es un Instituto de Investigación Mixto de titularidad compartida entre el Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC) y la Universidad de Zaragoza (UZ).  Creado hace menos de diez años,  sus investigadores se especializan precisamente en este nuevo tipo de catalizador y cómo era de esperarse, están muy contentos y emocionados con la noticia de este Nobel 2021 de Química.  RFI conversó con tres integrantes de este Instituto, Raquel Pérez Herrera, investigadora, Juan Mangas, investigador ARAID (programa de Aragón Innovación+ Desarrollo para la captación de talentos jóvenes) y Eugenia Márquez López, profesora titular de la Universidad de Zaragoza, España.  Escuche aquí la entrevista completa con los tres especialistas: Otros temas que le pueden interesar: Nobel de Física 2021: Manabe, Hasselmann y Parisi, dos meteorólogos climatólogos y un físico teórico

This week on MOATS: The Podcast Bonus Episode Professor Dave MacMillan is one of two scientists who have been awarded the 2021 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for their work on building molecules that are mirror images of one another. German-born Benjamin List and Scotland-born David MacMillan were announced as the winners at an event in Stockholm. Their chemical toolkit has been used for discovering new drugs and making molecules that can capture light in solar cells. In 2006, Dave was named the A. Barton Hepburn Professor of Chemistry at Princeton University. From 2010-2015, Dave served as the Chair of the Chemistry Department at Princeton. He is currently the James S. McDonnell Distinguished University Professor of Chemistry at Princeton University. The Mother of all Talk Shows" is broadcast live every Sunday 7pm GMT on Youtube and Sputnik Radio.

El último de los Nobel de ciencias, el de Química, ha premiado a los descubridores de nuevas herramientas para fabricar moléculas. Benjamin List y David MacMillan han dedicado su carrera a desarrollar nuevos catalizadores, sustancias que permiten "dirigir" las reacciones químicas, de forma que se generen las sustancias que a nosotros nos interesan. Pero no sólo eso: los catalizadores de List y MacMillan están hechos de carbono, oxígeno, nitrógeno o azufre, los elementos que están presentes en todos los seres vivos. Los catalizadores tradicionales suelen incorporar metales, que cumplen muy bien esa función, pero son más caros y más contaminantes. Y todavía tienen una ventaja más: con estos catalizadores orgánicos podemos seleccionar de forma natural si queremos producir una sustancia "hacia la izquierda" o "hacia la derecha". Os explicamos lo que significan estas expresiones con un pequeño experimento para el que sólo necesitaréis... vuestras manos. Si queréis aprender más sobre catálisis y su gran importancia en la química buscad los capítulos s04e23 y s03e34, en los que hablamos con mucho más detalle de qué significa que una molécula pueda "dirigir" una reacción química. te programa se emitió originalmente el 6 de octubre de 2021.

Kathleen opens the show drinking a Woodscraft IPA from Great Escape Beerworks in Springfield, MO. She then gives the Termites a summary of her birthday activity at her sister's house in Jefferson City, where her nieces and nephew made her a cake covered in animal faces to represent her yard. Kathleen then headed to Johnny Morris's Big Cedar Lodge in Branson, MO for a few days of fun golf with her siblings and friends, thrilled to be able to play Tiger Woods' Payne's Valley course while she was there. Kathleen was given a few birthday presents last week: Ron White gave her a new driver for her golf bag, her cousins gave her a pair of limited edition Hidden Valley Ranch Crocs (which she's excited to wear), and her friend Heidi gave her a cool Ranch cookbook and gallons of ranch dressing, which she'll put to good use the next time her nieces and nephews visit her house.TERMITE SHOUTOUTS: Kathleen gives thanks to the Termites who leave notes at shows and send mail to her PO Box. She begins by thanking Termite Denise for the “May I Please Have a Vodka Cranberry?” mask to wear on airplanes. Termites Kendra (who is a Liquor Inspector) and Sarah sent some fun “Bridgeport Badger” tees to celebrate their basement bar, and Termites Ashley and Joseph invited Kathleen to their wedding and sent a Ranch themed insulated cup that Kathleen can't wait to use on her boat. “GOOD BAD FOOD”: In her quest for new and delicious not-so-nutritious junk food AND in continuing her search for the best Ranch, Kathleen samples Scorchin' BBQ Pringles, which she finds to be WAY too hot. She moves on to taste Sir Kensington's Ranch, which is dairy-free and has a hint of dill in it. Kathleen gives it a thumbs-up, but she feels that the texture and tang makes it more of a dip than a dressing. She finishes her tasting with Charlie Gitto's Sweet Italian Vinaigrette from St. Louis, which she loves on a salad as part of a massive Italian dinner but will always prefer anything from Imo's (also a St. Louis original.)UPDATE ON KATHLEEN'S QUEEN'S COURT: Kathleen provides an update on the Queens, reporting that Queen Dolly has released a line of Christmas holiday cooking line with Williams Sonoma which is available to order now. Queen Tanya celebrated her birthday October 10th and posted a video of her cake, and Cher announced on Twitter that “she's back,” whatever that means to Queen Cher this week ☺ WALLY THE WALRUS WEBCAM: As a follow-up to Episode 56, Kathleen announces that Wally the Walrus has swum from Ireland to Iceland, where the Icelandic people have renamed him, Valli. A webcam has been set up so that people can watch a live stream of his activity. NRA REELECTS THEIR KING: Kathleen reads an update announcing that the NRA recently reelected their CEO, Wayne LaPierre. The NY Attorney General's office is suing to dissolve the NRA for allegedly misusing charitable funds, but the NRA feels as though the AG's office has a “misinformed view” of their unparalleled dedication to the Second Amendment. OOPS BRITNEY DID IT AGAIN: Waist-deep in the aftermath of the #FreeBritney movement, Kathleen shakes her head when reading an update that Britney Spears, temporarily free from her Conservatorship, has once again taken to Instagram to post a risqué video of her frolicking topless in the ocean. SHAKIRA ATTACKED BY WILD BOARS: Kathleen reads an article from Spain advising that in addition to Shakira's tax woes, the pop singer has also revealed that she and her son were recently attacked by a pair of wild boars in a park near Barcelona. The hogs attacked Shakira and stole her purse, which was documented in a series of Instagram Stories on the singer's account. Kathleen muses that the cause of the purse snatching must have been caused by “secret snacks” in Shakira's handbag, admitting that she also has secret treats in her travel purse with her favorites being Lance Crackers and Tootsie Pops (specifically the “red” kind.)MURDAUGH MURDER INVESTIGATION CONTINUES: Kathleen is fascinated with the ongoing news being released in South Carolina regarding the murders of Paul and Maggie Murdaugh and is thrilled to have been connected with journalist Mandy Matney via Twitter. Matney, along with her fiancé David, are the team investigating this corrupt family and all the cover-ups that have been made on their behalf for decades as they maintained power in a finite area of South Carolina, reporting their findings on their “Murdaugh Murders” podcast. Kathleen reads the latest development after the arrest of patriarch Alex Murdaugh, who is accused of being the mastermind behind the diversion of more than $3.5 million in death settlement money meant for the sons of his family's deceased housekeeper to an account said to be fraudulent.BARRY MANILOW SET TO BREAK ELVIS'S VEGAS RECORD: Kathleen is a massive fan of both Elvis and Barry Manilow, and is excited to read an article advising that although Elvis Presley holds the record for most performances in Vegas, Barry Manilow will pass him after signing a major deal that runs through 2023.Elvis Presley played a staggering 837 shows in Sin City, according to Showbiz 411, but Manilow's new contract with the Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino will push him past that mark. SCIENCE IS HARD: Kathleen reads an article announcing the winner of the Nobel Prize in chemistry and laughs out loud because she doesn't understand ANY of the details explaining why the award was given. Benjamin List and David MacMillan received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2021 for their development of a precise new tool for molecular construction: organocatalysis. The technology has had a great impact on pharmaceutical research and has made chemistry greener. Kathleen reads the released a few times and states her ongoing position that “science is hard.”A CRYPTO TRADING HAMSTER: That's right, Termites. Kathleen reads an article about Mr. Goxx, a German hamster who is crushing the cryptocurrency market with his trading and outtrading human investors. Mr. Goxx initiates a trade by entering The Goxx Box, occasionally running on the “Intention Wheel” and then choosing either the “Buy” or “Sell” tunnel that will cause the transaction to take place. All trading activity is available to stream on Twitch (where he is listed as the CEO of Goxx Capital), or you can watch Mr. Goxx's YouTube channel for past activity ☺ MISSOURI CANNIBALS AND VICKI'S GUN: Kathleen is horrified to read an article from her home state of Missouri, where the FBI office in Kansas City received an anonymous tip on September 16th advising that a woman had been kidnapped and photos of her in a cage were being circulated on the Dark Web. Local law enforcement in Dallas County obtained a search warrant for James Phelps, who has since been arrested. Further investigation found that Phelps is a cannibal, and human remains have been located on his property. As this county isn't far from Kathleen's family “farm,” she shares that her mom is usually armed when walking the property, and everyone makes fun of her because she carries a gun to prevent animal attacks and “rape.” While the rape of an 80-year-old most likely isn't a concern in acres of Missouri backwoods, nobody in the Madigan clan ever thought a cannibal would be roaming the area. Stay tuned, Termites…THE OLDEST MAN IN THE WORLD DIES AT 127: Kathleen reads an article from the Guinness World Records team, announcing that at the age of 127 the oldest man who ever lived has died. OCEAN DRONE FILMS INTERIOR OF CAT 4 HURRICANE: Kathleen LOVES following extreme weather patterns, and is excited when she reads that a new ocean drone has captured footage from the inside of a major hurricane. The technology behind the Saildrone Explorer SD1045 battles 50-foot waves and 120mph winds, gathering scientific data that will help NOAA scientists improve their forecast models that predict rapid intensification of hurricanes.NAZI CAMP SECRETARY ATTEMPTS TO FLEE TRIAL: Kathleen reads an article about a 96-year-old woman who was scheduled to go on trial for war crimes as a Nazi secretary and fled into hiding. Irmgard Furchner left her home near Hamburg in a taxi a few hours before proceedings were due to start at the state courthouse. Despite her advanced age, the German woman was to be tried in juvenile court because she was under 21 at the time of the alleged crimes. Police detained her hours after her attempted escape, and the court is reviewing whether the flight attempt should be considered in her sentencing. APPLAUDING THE FACEBOOK WHISTLEBLOWER: Kathleen has a renowned hatred for Mark Zuckerberg's lack of accountability in monitoring false narratives and polarizing content on Facebook and applauds the recent actions of whistleblower Frances Haugen, a former data scientist at Facebook, whose Senatorial testimony has led to what may be the most threatening scandal in the company's history. Haugen provided a clear and detailed glimpse inside the notoriously secretive tech giant, stating that Facebook harms children, sows division, and undermines democracy in pursuit of breakneck growth and "astronomical profits." There is currently a decades-old law known as Section 230, which immunizes social media companies from being sued over what their users post, but lawmakers are examining possible carve-outs. WHAT TO WATCH THIS WEEK: Kathleen recommends watching the “Untold” series on Netflix, especially the episode called “Crimes and Penalties.” See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Two scientists have won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for developing a molecule-building tool that can produce many important compounds in a “greener” way.两位科学家因开发出一种分子构建工具而获得诺贝尔化学奖，该工具可以以“更绿色”的方式生产许多重要的化合物。The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences announced the awards Wednesday for Germany's Benjamin List and Scotland-born David MacMillan. List is with Germany's Max Planck Institute, while MacMillan is a professor at America's Princeton University.瑞典皇家科学院周三宣布了德国的 Benjamin List 和苏格兰出生的 David MacMillan 的奖项。List 在德国的马克斯普朗克研究所工作，而 MacMillan 是美国普林斯顿大学的教授。Work by the two scientists has permitted researchers to more effectively produce molecules for things like medicines and pesticides and with less environmental harm. The academy called the winners' development method “an ingenious tool for building molecules.”两位科学家的工作使研究人员能够更有效地生产用于药物和杀虫剂等物质的分子，并且对环境的危害更小。该学院称获奖者的开发方法是“构建分子的巧妙工具”。The process of making molecules requires the linking of individual atoms together in specific positions. This can be very slow and difficult. For many years, chemists had only two methods -- or catalysts -- to speed up the process. These used either complex enzymes or metal catalysts.制造分子的过程需要将单个原子在特定位置连接在一起。这可能非常缓慢和困难。多年来，化学家只有两种方法——或催化剂——来加速这一过程。这些使用复杂的酶或金属催化剂。That all changed in 2000, when List and MacMillan independently reported that small organic molecules can be used to do the same job.这一切都在 2000 年发生了变化，当时 List 和 MacMillan 独立报告说有机小分子可以用来做同样的工作。The process has made the production of some drugs easier, including an antiviral and an anti-anxiety medication, the academy said. It noted that an estimated 35 percent of the world's total Gross Domestic Product, GDP, “in some way involves chemical catalysis.”该学院表示，该过程使一些药物的生产变得更加容易，包括抗病毒药和抗焦虑药。它指出，估计全球 GDP 总量的 35%“在某种程度上涉及化学催化”。John Lorsch is director of the United States National Institute of General Medical Sciences. He likened the scientists' work to “molecular carpentry.”John Lorsch 是美国国家普通医学科学研究所所长。他将科学家的工作比作“分子木工”。“They've found ways to not only speed up the chemical joining," he said, “but to make sure it only goes in either the right-handed or left-handed direction."“他们找到了不仅可以加速化学结合的方法，”他说，“而且可以确保它只沿右手或左手方向进行。”Johan Åqvist, chair of the Nobel panel, called the new method as “simple as it is ingenious.” “The fact is that many people have wondered why we didn't think of it earlier,” he added.诺贝尔委员会主席 Johan Åqvist 称这种新方法“既简单又巧妙”。“事实上，很多人都想知道为什么我们没有早点想到它，”他补充道。H.N. Cheng is president of the American Chemical Society. He said the two winners had developed “new magic wands.” He added that before their work, the usual molecule building methods often resulted in environmental damage or harm.H.N. Cheng 是美国化学学会的主席。他说这两位获奖者开发了“新的魔杖”。他补充说，在他们工作之前，通常的分子构建方法往往会导致环境破坏或危害。Speaking after the announcement, List said the award came as a "huge surprise.” He said at the beginning he did not know that MacMillan was working on the same subject, and he thought his effort might turn out to be, what he called, a “stupid idea.” But he added: “When I saw it worked, I did feel that this could be something big."在宣布这一消息后，List表示，该奖项是一个“巨大的惊喜”。他说一开始他不知道麦克米伦也在研究同一主题，他认为他的努力可能会变成他所说的“愚蠢的想法”。但他补充说：“当我看到它奏效时，我确实觉得这可能是一件大事。”MacMillan said the start of his catalysis work was "a pretty simple idea that really sparked a lot of different research.”麦克米兰说，他的催化工作的开始是“一个非常简单的想法，确实引发了许多不同的研究。”He added: “The part we're just so proud of is that you don't have to have huge amounts of equipment and huge amounts of money to do fine things in chemistry."他补充说：“我们非常自豪的部分是，您不必拥有大量设备和大量资金就可以在化学领域做出出色的工作。”

Scotland's big game, goalie howlers, prizes and the Chemistry XI with Scotland legend Rab Douglas and Nobel Prize winner Professor David MacMillan

Esta semana se han fallado los Premios Nobel, y en Más de Uno organizamos una tertulia especial para comentar las tres categorías de ciencias. En Fisiología o Medicina se ha premiado a David Julius y Ardem Patapoutian por el descubrimiento y caracterización de los receptores de la temperatura y el tacto. Estos receptores son pequeñas máquinas situadas en las membranas de algunas neuronas que permiten que la neurona "sepa" si se la está sometiendo a presión, o cuál es la temperatura exterior. En Física se ha premiado a Syukuro Manabe y Klaus Hasselmann, por sus contribuciones a los modelos del clima que son fundamentales para entender el cambio climático, y a Giorgio Parisi, por desarrollar una técnica para "encontrar el orden" en un sistema desordenado. Finalmente, en Química el premio ha sido para Benjamin List y David MacMillan por desarrollar los primeros catalizadores orgánicos asimétricos. Estas sustancias permiten "guiar" las reacciones químicas hacia las moléculas que más nos interesan, y son capaces de distinguir entre las diversas geometrías que la molécula final puede tener. Para contaros todo esto hemos organizado una tertulia de científicos, con Ignacio Crespo, médico y director de la sección de ciencia del diario La Razón, y Francis Villatoro, físico, matemático y creador del blog La Ciencia de la Mula Francis. Como siempre, además del tema central tenemos también el reto matemático de Santi García Cremades, que esta vez nos habla de la Conjetura de Goldbach: el hecho de que todo número par (mayor que 2) parece poder escribirse como la suma de dos números primos. Santi nos anima a comprobar la conjetura con tres ejemplos entre el 3 y el 100. Este programa se emitió originalmente el 7 de octubre de 2021. Podéis escuchar el resto de audios de Más de Uno en la app de Onda Cero y en su web, ondacero.es

The Princeton Community welcomes another Nobel Laureate yesterday after David MacMillan received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

Luis Aguilar, secretario académico de la Facultad de ciencias químicas, habla sobre el ganador del Premio Nobel de química 2021, explica en qué consiste la investigación realizada por los ganadores de este año: Benjamin List y David MacMillan, quienes descubren y desarrollan toda una línea de investigación sobre corte catalítico. De igual manera define lo que es la catálisis y cómo se llega a la organocatálisis asimétrica, razón exacta por la que son acreedores a dicho premio.

The Nobel Prize in chemistry has been awarded to Benjamin List and David W.C. MacMillan "for the development of asymmetric organocatalysis."To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy

“We thought it had a very low probability of success” – The best ideas in science are often the ones with the least chance of succeeding, says David MacMillan: “It's the stuff that should never work which is where all the good stuff is!” As he tells Adam Smith in this conversation recorded on the morning of the announcement, the thrill of discovery is also open to any undergraduate embarking in organic chemistry: “the very first day they build a molecule, it has never been made in the universe before!” And as for the news of his Nobel Prize: he describes how he initially thought it was a prank, bet his co-Laureate, Benjamin List, $1000 that it wasn't true, and went back to bed!From October 4-11, don't miss our mini-season that will showcase the absolute freshest interviews with the new 2021 Nobel Prize laureates.

Nobelovy ceny za chemii letos získala dvojice vědců David MacMillan ze Skotska a Němec Benjamin List, a to za asymetrickou organokatalýzu. Organokatalyzátory jsou velmi důležité při vývoji léků. Ze tří existujících způsobů, jak vyrábět léky, jsou právě ony tou nejvýhodnější. Léky jsou účinnější, mají méně vedlejších účinků a jejich výroba je levnější. Proč, na to se Věda Plus zeptá profesora Petra Kočovského, který celý princip přiblíží.

Benjamin List und David MacMillan erhalten den Chemie-Nobelpreis für die Entwicklung eines Werkzeugs für den Aufbau von Molekülen mit spezifischer Händigkeit: asymmetrische Organokatalyse. Das Verfahren findet Anwendung in der Herstellung zahlreicher Medikamente und anderer chemischer Substanzen. www.deutschlandfunk.de, Forschung aktuell Hören bis: 19.01.2038 04:14 Direkter Link zur Audiodatei

We've all heard the phrase "farmers feed cities", and today there is even more pressure on farmers to not only feed us, but also to do it in a way that's fast, cost efficient and sustainable! The Agriculture Technology, or AgTech, industry is making massive waves in helping farmers to do exactly that. With the use of technological innovations like drones, data mining and AI, AgTech companies are helping farmers and agricultural entities reduce costs, increase yields and improve farm outcomes. In this episode, David MacMillan, President, CEO and Co-Founder of Deveron Corp joins Kenrick to take a hard look at the agricultural landscape and unpack how Deveron is creating “Electronic Field Records” which help farmers make better decisions. With a 90% customer retention rate, Deveron has securely planted its seed with the farmers and agronomists of the future.---Stocks Not Sports is a podcast brought to you by INFOR Financial Group.

Come i Nobel per la chimica 2021, Benjamin List e David MacMillian, hanno rivoluzionato la produzione di farmaci

Misstänk man hittat död. Många familjer har fortfarande inget hem efter explosionen i Göteborg. Benjamin List i Tyskland och David MacMillan i USA får Nobelpris i Kemi. Reportrar Odessa Fardipour, Jenny Hallberg och Jenny Pejler.

En la edición de hoy de Sumario de tarde, el resumen de actualidad de The Objective: el Constitucional avala la prisión permanente revisable, la pobreza severa se agudiza en España, el Gobierno lanza un bono cultural para los jóvenes, y el Nobel de Química para Benjamin List y David MacMillan.

The 2021 Nobel Prize in Chemistry has been awarded jointly to Benjamin List and David MacMillan for their development of asymmetric organocatalysis.

Former dedicated creationist blogger David MacMillan now writes against the very arguments he used to make. What led someone so deeply committed to young earth creationism to embrace evolution as the story of how the world came to be? And how did it reshape his Christian faith? David's perspective is featured in the upcoming documentary We Believe in Dinosaurs, which will release on iTunes November 15 with a broader release on streaming platforms in the spring. He holds a degree in Physics and writes for Medium.com and BioLogos. I want to hear YOUR thoughts on the episode! Leave a text or voicemail on the Flip Phone at 323.999.1802.
