Who among the following won Nobel Prize for Chemistry for 2024?
(A) John H. Hopfield
(B) David Baker
(C) Demis Hassabis
(D) John Jumper
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Solution
Option 1 -> Incorrect because John H. Hopfield won the Nobel Prize in Physics (not Chemistry) for 2024, though it correctly includes Demis Hassabis and John Jumper.
Option 2 -> Incorrect because John H. Hopfield won the Nobel Prize in Physics (not Chemistry) for 2024, though it correctly includes David Baker and John Jumper.
Option 3 -> Incorrect because it includes John H. Hopfield who won the Nobel Prize in Physics for 2024, not Chemistry.
Option 4 -> Includes David Baker (for computational protein design), Demis Hassabis (for AI protein structure prediction), and John Jumper (for AI protein structure prediction) - all three were Chemistry laureates, while correctly excluding John H. Hopfield who won in Physics.
Hence, Option 4: (B), (C) and (D) only -> The 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to David Baker, Demis Hassabis, and John Jumper for their groundbreaking work in computational protein design and AI-powered protein structure prediction. John H. Hopfield won the Physics prize that year for neural networks. -> correct
