2017
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2017 was awarded to
Jacques Dubochet, Joachim Frank and Richard Henderson "for developing
cryo-electron microscopy for the high-resolution structure determination
of biomolecules in solution".
Congratulations!

(Historical remark: 46 appeared with almost one year delay
because longer versions of the paper were rejected by Nature, after a short review, as of
insufficient scientific importance and by Science, after a long review, as
inappropriate for the journal. Thank you, Journal of Microscopy, for accepting the article).
