Nobel Chemistry Awards to France and Japan
French researcher Henri Cagan and Japanese scientist Kinsuo Sui have been awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for 2026 for their discoveries in the field of "asymmetric catalysis," which plays a crucial role in developing tailored reactions for the pharmaceutical industry. Cagan, aged 95 and serving as a professor at the University of Paris-Saclay, is considered the father of this technique. Sui, who is 76 and works at the University of Tokyo, describes his victory as "the most wonderful day of my life." This achievement is significant for the pharmaceutical chemical industry, and the prize is valued at $1.2 million, to be shared among the winners if they choose to do so.
