Knack.be Verschenen Bron Belga Datum 6 mei 2013 Christian de Duve was laatste Belg in leven die Nobelprijs had gewonnen (Belga) Christian de Duve, die aan kanker leed en vorige zaterdag euthanasie pleegde, was Nobelprijslaureaat voor geneeskunde in 1974. Hij studeerde en doceerde aan de Université Catholique de Louvain (UCL) en was de achtste Belg die een Nobelprijs kreeg. Het was ook de laatste Belgische Nobelprijswinnaar die nog in leven was. De eerste Belgische Nobelprijs was de Nobelprijs voor de Vrede in 1904 voor het Instituut voor Internationaal Recht, destijds in Gent gevestigd. Het instituut kreeg de prijs voor zijn bijdrage aan de codificatie van het internationaal recht. Drie Belgen hebben daarna nog de Nobelprijs voor de Vrede gekregen: Auguste Beernaert in 1909, Henri La Fontaine in 1913 en pater Dominique Pire in 1958. In 1911 had de Franstalige schrijver Maurice Maeterlinck uit Gent de Nobelprijs voor literatuur gekregen. De eerste Belg die een Nobelprijs voor geneeskunde won, was Jules Bordet in 1919. Deze microbioloog van de Université Libre de Bruxelles kreeg de prijs voor zijn ontdekkingen op het vlak van de immuniteitsleer. Negentien jaar later, in 1938 kreeg Corneille Jean-François Heymans de Nobelprijs voor geneeskunde. Deze toxicoloog en farmacoloog uit Gent deed ontdekkingen op het vlak van het ademhalingssysteem. In 1974 deelde Christian de Duve de Nobelprijs met Albert Claude, een biochemicus van de universiteit van Luik, en George Emil Palade, een Amerikaanse bioloog van Roemeense origine, voor hun werkzaamheden rond lysosoom en peroxisoom dat tot belangrijke vooruitgang leidde op het vlak van kankerbestrijding. De Belgische scheikundige van Russische oorsprong Ilya Prirogine won de Nobelprijs voor chemie in 1977 voor zijn bijdrage op het vlak van de thermodynamica. (Belga) .

Gender and International Security: Feminist Perspectives
Gender and International Security This book explores the relationship between gender and international security, analyzing and critiquing international security theory and practice from a gendered perspective. Gender issues have an important place in the international security landscape, but have been neglected both in the theory and practice of international security. The passage and implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 1325 (on Security Council operations), the integration of gender concerns into peace- keeping, the management of refugees, post-conﬂict disarmament, and reinte- gration and protection for non-combatants in times of war show the increasing importance of gender sensitivity for actors on all fronts in global security. This book aims to improve the quality and quantity of conversations between feminist Security Studies and Security Studies more generally, in order to demonstrate the importance of gender analysis to the study of inter- national security, and to expand the feminist research program in Security Studies. The chapters included in this book not only challenge the assumed irrelevance of gender, they argue that gender is not a subsection of Security Studies to be compartmentalized or brieﬂy considered as a side issue. Rather, the contributors argue that gender is conceptually, empirically, and norma- tively essential to studying international security. They do so by critiquing and reconstructing key concepts of and theories in international security, by looking for the increasingly complex roles women play as security actors, and by looking at various contemporary security issues through gendered lenses. Together, these chapters make the case that accurate, rigorous, and ethical scholarship of international security cannot be produced without taking account of women’s presence in or the gendering of world politics.

How Much for That Nobel Prize in the Window? 3 October 2015
How much for that Nobel prize in the window? 3 October 2015 France's Aristide Briand, honoured in 1926 for his role in France and Germany's shortlived post-war reconciliation. His prize went for a steal in 2008 at just 12,200 euros ($13,650 at today's rate). That of Britain's William Randal Cremer, who won in 1903, did only slightly better, going under the hammer for $17,000 in 1985. But that was then.

Jamir Governor, Odisha Raj Bhawan Bhubaneswar-751 008 August 13, 2013 EMSSSEM I am glad to know that the School of Chemistry, Sambalpur University, like previous years is organizing a Seminar on "Nobel Prize" on August 24, 2013. The Nobel Prize instituted on the lines of its mentor and founder Alfred Nobel's last will to establish a series of prizes for those who confer the “greatest benefit on mankind’ is widely regarded as the most coveted international award given in recognition to excellent work done in the fields of Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, Literature, and Peace. The Prize since its introduction in 1901 has a very impressive list of winners and each of them has their own story of success. It is heartening that a seminar is being organized annually focusing on the Nobel Prize winning work of the Nobel laureates of that particular year. The initiative is indeed laudable as it will help teachers as well as students a lot in knowing more about the works of illustrious recipients and drawing inspiration to excel and work for the betterment of mankind. I am sure the proceeding to be brought out on the occasion will be highly enlightening.
