A scientist who was stunned by his best life and was stunned by the Nobel Prize winner


This is a cute small town. I like to go back and spend more time, but no, that was just, “let’s just eat something to eat” because I have to go back – I did a lot of things.

Have you told someone in the pub the Nobel Prize?

I didn’t tell anyone, Haha. I didn’t think I needed to do it.

You said you would not follow the Nobel Prize. How shocking was for you who won? I assume that you are aware of the success in your discoveries, but do you think, well, a lot of great science happens?

I’m not quite simple. The main reason I thought never happened is that about eight years ago, I was with Shimon Sakaguchi, another accomplice, and then another good friend of mine who works at the Sloan Kettering Institute, we won the Crafoord Award, which is also a Swedish Royal Academy. This is a family foundation in Sweden.

I think we arrived in 2017 and it was a great time. You know, the lecture, we met the princess of Crown. It was amazing, and so, so I thought, well, this is the knowledge that this particular scientific discovery is gaining, which was very attractive. So I love it, that’s better than that I could hope for. People were talking about the Nobel, and I like “I don’t think”. And after that, I loved, “It never happens. Even don’t even think about it.” So I was really shocked when I heard it.

Why do you think you have received the Nobel Prize now for this? Do you think it is because of the increase in immunology due to Coveid? Or is it because these discoveries have now made hundreds of new medical tests possible?
