The Nobel Prize is awarded annually by a committee of five members elected by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences to one or more individuals, who have made an outstanding contribution towards science, literature, medicine or peace. Since the Institute opened, 12 winners of the Nobel Prize (primarily in Physics) have attended our programmes.
