EU-funded scientist wins 2021 Nobel Prize in Chemistry
Benjamin List, two-fold grantee of the European Research Council (ERC), 
has been awarded the 2021 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for the development 
of asymmetric organocatalysis. He shares the award with David W.C. 
MacMillan. Professor List’s work in this field has been funded for a 
decade by two ERC Advanced Grants. Yesterday, Klaus Hasselmann and 
Giorgio Parisi, two scientists who also received funding from the EU, 
were awarded the 2021 Nobel Prize in Physics. They won the prize jointly 
with Syukuro Manabe for their groundbreaking contributions to our 
understanding of complex physical systems.

Mariya Gabriel, Commissioner for Innovation, Research, Culture, 
Education and Youth, said:
/"Another happy day for European science! After yesterday’s news on the 
Physics prize, another great mind, Benjamin List, wins the Nobel Prize 
in Chemistry. He has been backed by the EU for over a decade through two 
individual European Research Council grants. Congratulations to both 
laureates on winning one of the highest accolades in the world of science.”/

Destructive insects produce high-value products from biowaste

European researchers and industry are putting insects to work – from 
termites that destroy wooden buildings to insect larvae that are star 
‘poop’ composters. Packaging, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and animal feed 
are just some of the products they are beetling away to make for us.
