The Nobel Prize, which began in 1900, has already produced more than 1,000 winners worldwide. However, South Korea has failed to produce a Nobel Prize winner in the field of science. In order to make the Nobel Prize possible in science, many concerns and improvements are needed in many ways, including scientific administration, bureaucracy, and public education. In the field of science administration, authoritarianism seem to be a major stumbling block. Developing scientific technology by policy means and achievement of scientific technology to make money are not healthy foundation for the Nobel Prize. School education to enhance the value of creativity and challenge in needed. Social awareness is needed to value creativity and challenges. Acceptance of fails is required to succeed. It can make money to study things that don't pay. The Nobel Prize can be approached without the recognition of the Nobel Prize.

Professor Yoshinori Ohsumi received the 2016 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his contribution to autophagy research, which was first studied using electron microscopy. To celebrate and commemorate this historical moment, I describe the role of electron microscopy in autophagy research and suggest a role for next-generation electron microscopy in this research field.

Dr. Jacques Dubochet, Dr. Joachim Frank, and Dr. Richard Henderson received the 2017 Nobel Prize for Chemistry for their efforts to develop effective ways to obtain high-resolution three-dimensional images of biomolecules using cryo-electron microscopy. Congratulations to the Nobel Prize in the field of electron microscopy, I will explain the scientific contributions of the three winners and introduce the role of cryo-electron microscopy (including cryo technology) in biology.

The 2017 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to the following three pioneers: Dr. Joachim Frank, Dr. Jacques Dubochet, and Dr. Richard Henderson. They all contributed to the development of a Cryo-electron microscopy (EM) technique for determining the high-resolution structures of biomolecules in solution, particularly without crystal and with much less amount of biomolecules than X-ray crystallography. In this brief commentary, we address the major advances made by these three Nobel laureates as well as the current status and future prospects of this Cryo-EM technique.

One of main purposes to educate gifted/talented science students is to express their giftedness. Most of all, it is necessary to examine thoughts of gifted/talented students including a challenge and preparation of it, because their perception of science and scientists can affect on way of thinking, study course or occupation. To investigate this, we studied on the perception of science gifted/talented students toward Nobel science prize. They have lower possibility of Korean scientists' winning Nobel science prize, but they think when they grow up adult they can win it. And most of them have a challenge of winning Nobel prize. It is necessary to study educational stimuli and strategies for gifted/talented students to prosper a challenge of science.

The "First Step to Nobel Prize in Physics" is an annual competition in research projects in physics for secondary (high) school pupils organized by the Institute od Physics, Polish Academy of Sciences. This year the second competition of that type has been completed. Pupils from 36 countries took part in the first two competitions, what certainly should be treated as a great success. We have organized the above competition for the following reasons. During our contacts with secondary school pupils we discovered that some of them try to perform different physical investigations by themselves: at schools, in some laboratories and even at home. Then we decided to organize the National Competition in Pupils' Research Projects in Physics and next - after gaining some experience in the national scale - the international competition "First Step to Nobel Prize in Physics". Our aim was to recognize the effort of the pupils, give them a chance to compare their own achievements with the achievements of their colleagues and organize their work. One should underline that the "First Step" refers to quite different features (long term research work) of the pupils than the International Physics Olympiad (solving well formulated physics problems). The prizes in our competition are not typical. Instead of buying some items for our winners we decided to invite them to our Institute for a research stay. In our opinion in case of people whose hobby is physics such a form of prize is more valuable and more instructive than anything else. The aim of this article is to discuss a genesis of the competition, to present conditions of participation and to discuss the results.

The chromosomes of all the world are the same in all 24 pairs, but the key, skin color and appearance are different. Also, it is the resistance of adult disease, diabetes, cancer. In 1953, Watson, Crick of Cambridge University experimentally discovered a DNA double helix structure, and in 1962, They laureates the Nobel Prize. In 1964, Temin, University of Wisconsin, USA, experimentally identified the ability to copy gene information from RNA to DNA and received the Nobel Prize in 1975. In this paper, we analyzed 24 pairs of DNA chromosomes using mathematical matrices based on the combination order sequence of four groups, and designed the Taegeuk pattern genetic code for the first time in the world. In the case of normal persons, the middle Yin-Yang taegeuk is designed as a block circulant Jacket matrix in DNA, and the left-right and upper-lower pairs of east-west and north-south rulings are designed as pair complementary matrices. If (C U: A G) chromosomes are unbalanced, that is, people with disease or inheritance become squashed squirming patterns. In 2017, Professor Michel Young was awarded a Nobel by presenting a biological clock and experimentally explained the bio-imbalance through a yellow fruit fly experiment.This study proved mathematical matrices for balanced and unbalanced RNA.
