How many times in your life you will hear the whole Chemistry class wins a Nobel?

S. Chandrasekhar drove 80 miles twice a week from Yerkes Observatory to U of Chicago to teach a class that had only two students. When asked why, he said they were very good students. They were Lee and Yang, who won Nobel Prize in Physics in 1957. https://t.co/0LTzAayxKC

Won Nobel twice. In two different disciplines. Fond remembrance of a rare brain. 👍

Happy birthday to Marie Skłodowska Curie, who was born on this day in 1867!

Marie Curie was the first person to be awarded the Nobel Prize twice, and is still the only individual to receive the prize in two different science categories.
