Just before noon today, Stockholm time, three real visionaries struck scientific gold: the 2017 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. The researchers had developed ways of imaging complex proteins at the atomic level, adopting electron microscopes to see how the molecules create antibiotic resistance, convert light into energy for photosynthesis, and how the Zika virus functions. “For developing cryo-electron microscopy for the high-resolution structure determination of biomolecules in solution," the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded the chemistry prize to Jacques Dubochet of the University of Lausanne in Switzerland, Joachim Frank of Columbia University in New York City, and Richard Henderson of the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge, England./.../
