Who will win the 2025 chemistry Nobel prize? Data crunchers unveil their predictions

With just two weeks to go until the winners of the 2025 chemistry Nobel prize are unveiled, a list of researchers whose work has been classed as deserving of this award has been published by Web of Science provider, Clarivate. Its list of citation laureates was created by calculating which researchers’ work was among the top 0.01% of the most frequently cited publications, each having 2000 or more citations. As of 2002, 83 citation laureates have gone on to receive Nobel prizes, underscoring the predictive power of this method.
