The 2023 Nobel Prize in chemistry has been awarded to a trio of scientists who worked to discover and develop quantum dots, used in LED lights and TV screens, as well as by surgeons when removing cancer tissue.
The Swedish Royal Academy of Sciences, which awards the Nobel Chemistry Prize, apologised Wednesday for a mistake that saw the laureates' names released to Swedish media hours before the formal announcement.
Swedish public broadcaster SVT said the academy sent a press release by mistake early Wednesday that contained the names of the winners. | World News
