Srinivas Viswanathan: Inspired choice for this year’s Nobel in Medicine

Srinivas Viswanathan shared a post by Nature, on X, adding:

“Inspired choice for this year’s Nobel in Medicine! Having cut my scientific teeth in miRNA/let-7 biology as a PhD student and having had the incredible fortune of having both of these amazing, inspiring, and humble scientists on my committee, this year’s award feels extra special!”

Quoting Nature‘s post:

“BREAKING: This year’s Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun. The pair have been recognised ‘for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.’

Stay tuned for more from Nature.”
