Pioneers in synthetic biology and next-generation DNA sequencing among predictions for chemistry Nobel prize

With less than two weeks to go until the 2023 chemistry Nobel prize is announced, Web of Science provider Clarivate has published its annual list of citation laureates – researchers whose work ranks among the 0.01% of most highly cited publications, with 2000 citations or more.

This year, the list includes 23 researchers from institutions in five countries who, according to analysis carried out by the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) at Clarivate, have carried out work deemed to be worthy of a Nobel prize. Of those, eight individuals were selected in the field of chemistry.
