This year's chemistry laureates have added items to the Nobel Prize Museum's collection in Stockholm to help document the story behind the prize and help make the science accessible to the public.

As a part of Nobel Week, recent Nobel laureate Omar Yaghi attended today's Nobel lecture at Stockholm University in Sweden and described the history of his prize-awarded work. He was joined by Susumu Kitagawa and Richard Robson, who he shares the prize with.

Earlier this month, a celebratory toast welcomed Professor Omar Yaghi back to campus in honor of his Nobel Prize in Chemistry. The afternoon's images continue to inspire, long after the celebration ended.

Only 2% of people getting gel manicures protect against harmful UV rays. Our researchers have developed a spray that guards against UVA exposure during nail treatments. Innovations like these that remind us why we're a leading public research university. https://bit.ly/47e3OoZ
