Six months left until we’re in Norway celebrating Kavli Prize Week 2024!

Take a look back through these photos at Kavli Prize Weeks of years past. The excitement, splendor and passion is a sight to behold each time.

Happy 20th Anniversary to Kavli Nanoscience Institute at Caltech Caltech!
Last night they kicked off the celebration with The Kavli Prize Laureate George Whitesides speaking with President Rosenbaum.

Have you ever listened to a song so good, it felt electric?

Well, it is! Transduction is the conversion of sound vibrations to electrical signals by hair cells in your ear.

Kavli Laureate A. James Hudspeth discovered which mechanisms in the ear are active in this process.

Happy Women’s History Month! Women Kavli Prize Laureates have made history with their contributions to their scientific fields that have transformed our understanding of the big, the small and the complex.

The future of CRISPR technology is coming soon. “It's really rewarding to see how fast the fundamental discoveries that were made in the lab actually are translated into the clinics,” - Virginijus Šikšnys, 2018 Kavli Prize laureate.

Kavli Prize Week is a celebration of the laureates, their work, the prize, and the fields of astrophysics, nanoscience and neuroscience. Throwback to the 2022 Kavli Prize week, where the joy and excitement in the photos speak for themselves:

No x-ray vision needed to study the biological processes inside this animal: C. elegans is completely transparent.

Dr. Bargmann was awarded the Kavli Prize in 2012 for her work on how sensory signals pass from the point of sensation to the brain.

The Kavli Prize in neuroscience awards scientists in an ever-expanding field - one that recently got even bigger. “Connectomics” is a newer part of the neuroscience field.

We look forward to more incredible work coming out of this field!
