I'm so thrilled that Harry Noller got this prize. he was my undergrad advisor and I learned biochem from him. His work on ribosomes has been great, and the fact he didn't get the Nobel (his competitor) did was always a sore point in the community.
I really wish they would film/broadcast/live-stream this. It'd be nice to have some production behind it to make it apart of the general public.
Then they would need to get some hot actresses to present the awards. Sort of like the Oscar tech awards.
You mean, instead of Morgan Freeman, who was the presenter this year?
