‘Nobel Prize Conversations’ is back with a new season featuring our newest batch of Nobel Prize laureates from 2021. Get to know the individuals behind the prizes when the season begins on 28 April.

Episode one of the new season features football fan and chemistry laureate David MacMillan. Together with podcast host Adam Smith, he speaks about the importance of storytelling and his strong belief that doing science should be fun. MacMillan shares his journey from a family where no one had gone to university to becoming a Nobel Prize laureate.

MacMillan also comments on how he has found being awarded the prize: “It is still pretty surreal. It is an evolving bizarreness.”

Later in this season of ‘Nobel Prize Conversations’ we’ll be meeting more of our 2021 laureates including Ardem Patapoutian, Giorgio Parisi, David Card, Maria Ressa, Benjamin List and David Julius.

‘Nobel Prize Conversations’ is a podcast with a new episode every Thursday. This new season will be the fourth.
