Prix Wolf

Prix Wolf 2022 : lauréats

Destinataires

  1. Agriculture

    Pamela C. Ronald

    Biologie

    for pioneering work on disease resistance and environmental stress tolerance in rice.

  2. Chimie

    Benjamin F. Cravatt

    Chimie

    for developing activity-based protein profiling, a chemical proteomic strategy, to characterize enzyme function in native biological systems, and describe numerous enzymes which play critical roles in human biology and disease, including the endocannabinoid hydrolases whose lipid products regulate communication between cells.

  3. Chimie

    Bonnie L. Bassler

    Chimie

    for her work elucidating the role of chemical communication between bacteria. She has made important discoveries revealing how quorum sensing is used by bacteria both for virulence and for communicating across species.

  4. Chimie

    Carolyn R. Bertozzi

    Chimie

    Carolyn Bertozzi is awarded the Wolf Prize for pioneering biorthogonal chemistry and understanding glycocalyx, and its roles in both health and disease, thus allowing for bioimaging, chemoproteomics, and in-vivo drug delivery.

  5. Mathématiques

    George Lusztig

    Mathématiques

    for Groundbreaking contributions to representation theory and related areas.

  6. Physique

    Anne L’Huillier

    Physique

    for pioneering contributions to ultrafast laser science and attosecond physics.

  7. Physique

    Ferenc Krausz, Paul Corkum

    Physique

    for pioneering contributions to ultrafast laser science and attosecond physics
