Warm congrats to Katalin Kariko & Drew Weissman, who won the 2023 The Nobel Prize in medicine
Kariko's company BioNTech SE came to ILL to study how mRNA is structured and where it is located inside lipid nanoparticles - Small Angle #Neutron scattering instr. D11 w/@olga_in_science

“The mRNA technology platform has the potential to revolutionise medicine, and was recently used to great effect in the covid pandemic – they have the clear potential to be deployed against a wide variety of diseases.”- James Doutch, SANS Instrument Scientist
