2. SOUNDBITE (English) Hans Ellegren, Secretary-General, Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences:
"The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has today decided to award the 2024 Nobel prize in chemistry with one half to David Baker, University of Washington, USA, for computational protein design, and the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John Jumper, Google DeepMind, United Kingdom for protein structure prediction."

8. Still of David Baker, speaking via phone UPSOUND (English):
"Well, I was sleeping when the phone rang and I answered the phone and I heard the announcement and then my wife began screaming very loudly so I couldn’t hear very well and the very nice person who was talking to me told me to go somewhere where I could actually listen and I think it was very very exciting and I think it’s turning out to be a quite a unique, special day."

11. Still of David Baker, speaking via phone UPSOUND (English): "I’ve been working on protein design for number of years and really with the breakthroughs made by the Demis and John on picking structure predictions really highlighted to us the power that AI could have."

13. Still of David Baker, speaking via phone UPSOUND (English): "And I’m really excited about all the ways in which protein design can now make the world a better place in health, medicine and really outside in technology and sustainability."

17. SOUNDBITE (English) Heiner Linke, Chair of the Nobel Committee for Chemistry and Professor of Nanophysics at Lund University:
"Proteins are involved in almost anything interesting that happens in the cell and human body, anything from antibodies, hormones, how muscles work, how our brain is maintained is done by different types of proteins. And what the protein design part of the prize is about is really learning how can we use this multi-tool for our own purposes. Can we figure out what nature does, but create new proteins with new structures new functions that we can use in technology for example, or in medicine or simply as a tool to understand how the body works?"

19. SOUNDBITE (English) Heiner Linke, Chair of the Nobel Committee for Chemistry and Professor of Nanophysics at Lund University:
"So there is no connection between the prizes, each Nobel prize is completely on its own feet. And this one is about really biochemical breakthroughs. The connection that exists is that the foundational research in physics that was awarded yesterday, how to do deep learning, is part of the breakthrough, how to crack the code of protein-structure predictions. So this is an application of artificial intelligence and I would say an exemplary application in the sense that it addresses a really important problem, in a really responsible way, in a very well controlled way."
