Premio Wolf 2005: Ganadores

Destinatarios

1. Química

   Richard N. Zare

   Química

   for his ingenious applications of laser techniques, for identifying complex mechanisms in molecules, and their use in analytical chemistry.

2. Matemáticas

   Grigory Margulis

   Matemáticas

   for his monumental contributions to algebra, in particular to the theory of lattices in semi-simple Lie groups, and striking applications of this to ergodic theory, representation theory, number theory, combinatorics and measure theory.

3. Matemáticas

   Sergei Novikov

   Matemáticas

   for his fundamental and pioneering contributions to algebraic and differential topology, and to mathematical physics, notably the introduction of algebraic-geometric methods.

4. Medicina

   Alexander Levitzki

   Biología

   for pioneering signal transduction therapy and for developing tyrosine kinase inhibitors as effective agents against cancer and a range of other diseases.

5. Medicina

   Tony Pawson

   Biología

   for his discovery of protein domains essential for mediating protein-protein interactions in cellular signaling pathways, and the insights this research has provided into cancer.

6. Medicina

   Anthony R. Hunter

   Biología

   for the discovery of protein kinases that phosphorylate tyrosine residues in proteins, critical for the regulation of a wide variety of cellular events, including malignant transformation.

7. Física

   Daniel Kleppner

   Física

   for groundbreaking work in atomic physics of hydrogenic systems, including research on the hydrogen maser, Rydberg atoms and Bose-Einstein condensation.
