The Kavli Prize honors scientists for breakthroughs in astrophysics, nanoscience and neuroscience that transform our understanding of the very big, the very small and the very complex. From scientific breakthroughs like the discovery of CRISPR-Cas9 and the detection of gravitational waves, to inventing new fields of research, such as astrochemistry, Kavli Prize Laureates push the limits of what we don’t know and advance science in ways that could not have been imagined. Three million-dollar prizes are awarded every other year in the three fields by the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters. The Kavli Prize Laureates are honored in a ceremony presided over by the Royal Family of Norway. The Kavli Prize is a partnership between The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters, The Norwegian Ministry of Education and Research and The Kavli Foundation.
