The UC Berkeley community congratulates and applauds our newest Nobel laureates— professor emeritus Reinhard Genzel (Physics prize) and professor Jennifer Doudna (Chemistry prize)

UC Berkeley professor emeritus Richard Genzel, along with co-winner UCLA professor Andrea Ghez, used the world’s largest telescopes to peer into the center of the Milky Way. Their pioneering research provided convincing evidence that a supermassive black hole, four million times the mass of the sun, lies at the heart of our galaxy.

UC Berkeley professor Jennifer Doudna’s research revealed how the Cas9 protein, part of the CRISPR system in bacteria, targets viruses, and allowed her to adapt the process to edit the genomes of many organisms, including humans. In addition to applications in gene therapy, Doudna’s work can aid in the understanding of hereditary diseases and improving crop plants.

Their Nobel Prizes are a testament to the power of academic collaboration and scientific inquiry, propelled boldly onward by curiosity and wonder.
