ノーベル賞、なにか人知を超えた知的存在が決めているかの錯覚を覚えますが、普通の人間が選考しています。
>トマス パールマン:生理医学賞の選考委員長:2022で退任
>昔のライバルでした。トマスも偉くなったものです☆
ノーベル賞、神様が決めるものではなくて、
生臭い人間の所業ですw

今日の、ノーベル生理医学賞の受賞記事を見ると、古い知り合いの名前を見つけて記事にしました>トマス パールマン カロリンスカ研究所の教授になったのはずいぶん前ですが、2016年から生理医学賞の選考委員長を務めているそうです。ずいぶん偉い人になったものです。
Thomas Perlmann
トマスの師匠筋が少し間の委員長だったので、やはり人脈で決まるようですね。ノーベル賞選考は、世界最高レベルの研究者が選ばれるのは確かですが、
最終的には、かなり選考委員の「好み」が反映されるようです。所詮は人間が選ぶものですから☆
The Nobel Committee for Physiology or Medicine
PS.選考委員は、それほど業績のある人々ではないですね。少なくとも、この委員になると、ノーベル賞はもらえなくなるようです。。

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Swedish professor
Rolf Thomas Perlmann, (March 2, 1959, Stockholm, Sweden) is a professor of molecular developmental biology at Karolinska Institute.[1] In 2006, he became a member of the Nobel Assembly at the Karolinska Institute. He became an adjunct member of Karolinska Institutet's Nobel Committee in 2008 and was then elected in 2012. He has been Secretary for the Nobel Committee for Physiology or Medicine since 2016.[2]

Few prizes attract the same attention worldwide and have such a rigorous selection process as the Nobel Prize. According to Thomas Perlmann, secretary of the Nobel Assembly and the Nobel Committee, the importance of preserving the prize’s reputation is greater than ever before.

The 50 professors that make up the Nobel Assembly at Karolinska Institutet are responsible for selecting the researcher or researchers who will receive the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine each year. In addition to the Nobel Assembly, there is also the Nobel Committee, a working body of roughly 15 people responsible for carrying out much of the practical work.

You get to read some incredibly exciting research, people are very committed, and there is no question that they are passionate about the Nobel Prize,” says Thomas Perlmann, secretary of both the Nobel Assembly and the Nobel Committee for Physiology or Medicine since 2016.
The Assembly votes on which candidates to proceed with.
“We air our opinions, but in a friendly manner. Our opinions and feelings may differ,” says Thomas Perlmann.
According to Perlmann, it is thanks to the careful investigative work that the right research has been awarded over the years.
“But if I was to give an example of an oversight, it would be Oswald Avery’s discovery in 1944 that DNA is the molecule carrying our genome in the cells, which was a find worthy of a Nobel Prize. Avery was nominated, but he was never awarded the prize before his passing away,” says Thomas Perlmann.
