>Mortality and immortality: the Nobel Prize as an experiment into the effect of status upon longevity.

>Correcting for potential biases, we estimate that winning the Prize, compared to merely being nominated, is associated with between 1 and 2 years of extra longevity [in men].

Here is a list of all of them with their birth and death days: https://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/lists/birthdays.html...

An interesting point made in https://web.math.princeton.edu/~kollar/FromMyHomePage/fm-ess... is that getting a fields medal is good for longevity, but bad if you "nearly got it": +8 yrs if you get it, -6 for "just missed" (see p. 6.)

The main point of the article is not about longevity, but rather: does the award lead to better or worse research? (It is awarded relatively early.)

Not a Nobel prize winner, but still interesting, Albert Hofmann, of LSD fame, lived to be a 102.

Social status seems to be correlated with life expectancy so it is possible wining the prize extends it.
