I cannot emphasize how happy I am to see Jennifer win the nobel. I have been a fan since the first time I heard from CRISPR from a Kurzgesagt video, Jennifer is such a charismatic human being and since I read A crack in Creation I have fallen for all the potential that CRISPR has. I truly believe that CRISPR will be the tool that brings a better future for humanity, and that Jennifer Doudna and Emmanuele Charpentier will be immortalized in the ways of science and progress.
I have been passionate about CRISPR ever since watching that video too and Doudna has been my role model ever since so hearing this news made me equally as happy (:
Whoever produced this video did an excellent job. This was such an organic look into the mind of an incredibly talented individual. No distractions, no manufactured feelings, just a natural picture of Doudna's lovable personality. Thank you for brining this to us, and congratulations to Doudna and her collaborators!
BIG Congratulations! Yeah! Great job! Etc., etc., etc. Words cannot describe the pride UC Berkeley students, staff, academics and alumni are feeling right now. So proud to be a Bear! So proud to be the son and dad of a Bear as well. And this Bear survived four semesters of Chemistry at Cal. It wasn't easy; it wasn't pretty, but I survived! Plus my prized mountain bike was stolen between Pimentel and Latimer while I was in chem lab, leaving a permanent scar on my psyche! So many great memories of Cal, despite the pain & suffering! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BEARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRS!!!!!!
So cool you went there! Sorry to hear about your bike - I like to imagine when I lose stuff like that, it might have caused harm to still posses it. Maybe you would get into a horrible accident on that bike. Maybe it led to events actually saving your psyche. Luckily, despite the attachment, you are doing fine - it is just a bike after all - and you probably have another one :)
You deserve this madam. The importance of CRISPR/Cas system is immense. And btw to all others, Madam Marie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize because her husband Pierre declined to receive it alone as they both worked together on radioactivity.
@@kibryncrow8922 The thought of getting a call in the middle of the night and getting to know that you have won a Nobel prize is overwhelming. What's a better way of knowing that you had a life full of meaning and purpose than winning a Nobel. Maybe I cried because I am a nobody right now and there are people out there who have contributed so much to the society.
Congrats Dr Doudna,i have followed her job and pubications, and though she does not know me! i feel so happy and proud of her like if she was my proffessor.
Congratulations!! Im so happy she received the recognition and appreciation she deserves. She is an inspiration to aspiring female scientists like myself❤️
So cool!!! CONGRATS Dr. Doudna!!! I’m doing my BSc right now and actually had a live debate today. My team and I had to argue in favour of CRISPR and people in the class said we won even though it wasn’t a competition😅can’t wait to see what more great things you and CRISPR will do!!! I’m cheering for you🥳maybe I’ll have a hand in it too someday!
I was so happy when I saw the news online! I admire them and CRISPR and all the possibilites they offer. Thank you so much for this technology. They are an inspiration. Congratulations!!❤️❤️
I am really happy that such as a promising technology as CRISPR is rewarded, but it is sad the lack of recognition of scientists with major roles in the development of this technique such as the CRISPR discoverer Francis Mojica, maybe because they did not have the luck of being American/German.
That’s important, but lab experience and reading publications is key. I recommend papers published at Nature Biotechnology or everything CRISPR related in Science Magazine or Nature. Check David R Liu‘s lab as well.
My grandma and have been talking about her for days via phone because we are so proud and excited that a women is recognized for her incredible work! I chose biotech as my major and seeing a female , Dr. Jennifer Doudner, be validated with this award is incredible and inspiring. What an amazing moment for her and Berkeley!
The most prodigious of well-wishes from Sweden, I think a great many people find a solace in that that even though history repeats itself with anti-intellectualism, demagogi and xenophobia; Science always moves forward. So thank you for pushing the human species forward.
Love it! An interesting story from the pages of modern biological science! As usual at the beginning of the path to this very useful technical tool researchers had no idea about the potential of its impact. This reminds me of Michael Faraday telling his audience at the end of his demonstration on electricity, and in response to the query…"Mr. Faraday, the behavior of the magnet and the coil of wire was interesting, but of what possible use can it be?“ Faraday answered politely, "Sir, of what use is a newborn baby?”
Now I concluded that NOBEl PRIZE is only for American and German scientist.Even this year physics NOBEl PRIZE was achieved by Roger Penrose.He do research on the basis of a Indian scientist equation, popularly known as 'Raichouduey Equation'.But he can't achieve NOBEl. It's damn true NOBEl is for America,Germany and France .Not for Eastern countries.sad from Tokyo,Japan.
The Royal Society's Copley medal is the world oldest science prize, at 1731, and is arguable higher. Faraday Joules Einstein Darwin Gauss Ohms Volts rechargable Li batteries etc were all winners electricity has won about 15 Copley medals since 1740
She has to split 1.1 million dollars with another person, and also pay taxes on her winnings. Afterwhich, she should have enough to buy another cup of coffee.
SCIENTIFIC MERICLE OF QUR'AN SKY A PROTECTING ROOF NO MAGNETIC FIELD NO LIFE ON EARTH What If Massive Solar Storm Hit the Earth?

Dr. Francis Mojica, a researcher at the University of Alicante, discovered in 1993 repeated sequences that he called CRISPR. His article, published in Molecular Microbiology (Genetic cutting and paste technique) is not recognized or given the Nobel, in Spain it always happens the same Isaac Peral invented the first operational submarine in the world The submarine carried out in a junkyard, Juan de la Cierva invented the autogyro (predecessor of the helicopter) died in Great Britain without pain or glory.Moraleja? nothing is worth inventing in this country.
because the discovery of CRISPR sequences was important, but didn't have the same impact as designing the CRISPR toolkit for genetic editing. The nobel prize here is not awarded for discovering CRISPR (although some newspapers described it as such) but it is awarded for designing the CRISPR tools that enable genetic editing as well as proving it is possible to use in eukaryotic/human cells.
@@pepegotera8598 No, you discover gasoline, they give the nobel prize to the one designing a system where the gasoline is usefull, like a combustion engine ;)
The community should know that CRISPR was first identified by a Spanish scientist Francisco Monji (something like this name and he coined the name and published his work in Molecular Microbiology). Its application was demonstrated by another European scientist (I guess he is from Lithuania). Jennifer Doudna and her mate made it public, mitigating the original discoveries of those two poor scientists. I can't understand how much lobbying can make differences. Both of them should at least think about the truth. Both of them do not deserve a noble prize!! Period!!. First, it is just a technique. Second, it not their invention!!. It looks like getting noble is not so difficult. If you talk well, if you have a good lobby, it is yours. Noble should be given to discoveries for humankind and should not mean for money-making. For example, the noble prize for scientists elucidating Hepatitis C, which helped 71 million lives so far!!. Not for these individuals who are caring about making money!!

DON'T YOU OWN A SOWL?!!?? Yaw D'evil!" Treating scientific means as approaching a cute Labrador puppy video on the net it isn't the safest and more objectives way of acting.

@@antoniopacelli, Crispr Gene Drives might be the biggest threat, as we understand them today. And I would expect that Jennifer would be the first to readily agree that the ethics are a central issue to this technology. Think back to when scientists first figured out how to split the atom. The potential there was on the scale of horrific species extinction. And it still is. But for the past 75 years+, things have actually turned out quite well. Because of nukes, today we have amazing jet airliners, the internet, cell phones with GPS and digital cameras, and so much more. Even our Interstate Highway System happened as a result of splitting the atom. Most people don't understand how these marvels of modern life came about from nuclear technology. If anyone is interested, I'd be glad to explain it. But the point is that just because the potential for horrific outcomes exists, this does not necessarily mean that such horrors will actually happen. Crisper Cas9 could very well herald in an age of wonderful things. Just as the nuclear age has. Or we could even go all the way back to the turning point in humanity when we first learned how to harness fire. Imagine all those who predicted doom and gloom, in how we would burn everything to the ground. Did any of those naysayers imagine that one day, human ingenuity would figure out how to build vehicles which were powered by blocks of metal where inside there were thousands of fiery explosions every minute? All harnessed under perfect control. This transition to cars which liberated all our horses happened only about a century ago. If we are so fearful of technology, we have the option to join the Amish or the Mennonites. Or we can be students of history and study how the human species has so far managed to navigate our path mostly successfully, avoiding the worst of potential outcomes. Then use this track record of thousands of years to predict that we could very well be likewise successful in navigating the coming decades ahead. A future where we skillfully apply the technology of gene editing.
I'm so so damm happy. She is the reason why I choose biotechnology majors in college. What a remarkable woman she is!
Agreed. This technology can give so many people a chance in life.
I cannot emphasize how happy I am to see Jennifer win the nobel. I have been a fan since the first time I heard from CRISPR from a Kurzgesagt video, Jennifer is such a charismatic human being and since I read A crack in Creation I have fallen for all the potential that CRISPR has.

On the dark side: now I can't complain every time someone wins a Nobel prize that why isn't it Doudna and Charpentier. :P
she seems very likeable
What is she gonna do with the money?
She has to split 1.1 million dollars with another person, and also pay taxes on her winnings. Afterwhich, she should have enough to buy another cup of coffee.
