0

75 Citation Laureates named by the Institute for Scientific Information have received a Nobel Prize since 2002

LONDON, Oct. 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Clarivate Plc (NYSE:CLVT), a global leader in connecting people and organizations to intelligence they can trust to transform their world, today celebrates the four new Nobel Laureates who were accurately identified as potential Nobel Prize recipients. Ferenc Krausz, Moungi G. Bawendi, Louis E. Braus and Claudia Goldin were named to the Citation Laureates™ list from Clarivate™ several years before being recognized by the Nobel Assembly.

Every year, the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI)™ at Clarivate interprets the high-quality citation data in the Web of Science™ to identify researchers of Nobel class who may be future Nobel Prize recipients.

Four of this year’s Nobel Laureates in three categories (Physics, Chemistry and Economics) were identified as being of Nobel class as far back as 2012. This demonstrates that extremely high levels of citations in trusted journals can signal what the global scientific community regards as groundbreaking and of the utmost importance. Since 2002, a remarkable 75 Citation Laureates have gone on to receive a Nobel Prize.

To explain the accuracy of the ISI in identifying future Nobel Laureates, David Pendlebury, Head of Research Analysis, ISI, Clarivate, said: "We rise to the unique challenge of forecasting Nobel Prize laureates by combining data-driven quantitative analysis with the human expertise of our analysts at ISI. This approach allows us to identify potential Nobel awardees years in advance, as exemplified by the four Citation Laureates honored this year. Their groundbreaking contributions have transformed our world, and it is an honor to see them recognized with a Nobel Prize."

The four Citation Laureates named as Nobel Laureates in 2023 are:

The 2023 Nobel Prize for Physics was awarded to Pierre Agostini, Ferenc Krausz and Anne L’Huillier "for experimental methods that generate attosecond pulses of light for the study of electron dynamics in matter". ISI identified this scientific breakthrough in 2015 as deserving of a Nobel Prize, linked to Ferenc Krausz, Anne L’Huillier and Paul Corkum for their contributions to the development of attosecond physics. While Krausz and Corkum were named Citation Laureates in 2015, Anne L’Huillier declined to be included on the list. The 2023 Nobel Prize for Chemistry was awarded to Moungi G. Bawendi, Louis E. Brus and Alexey Ekimov "for the discovery and synthesis of quantum dots". ISI named two of the researchers behind this scientific breakthrough several years ago: Louis E. Brus was named a Citation Laureate in 2012 for the discovery of colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals (quantum dots), and Moungi G. Bawendi in 2020 for synthesis of nanocrystals with precise attributes for a wide range of applications in physical, biological and medical systems. The Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel 2023 was awarded to Claudia Goldin "for having advanced our understanding of women’s labour market outcomes". ISI identified Claudia Goldin as a Citation Laureate in 2020, recognizing her Nobel-worthy contributions to labor economics, especially her analysis of women and the gender pay gap.

Frost & Sullivan Launches the EmpowerHer Program to Bridge the Growth Gap in Women

Global Think Tanks and Collaboration to Drive Innovation and Empowerment in Women’s Health

SAN ANTONIO, Oct. 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Frost & Sullivan, a renowned leader in fostering innovation and driving transformative change, proudly announces the launch of its groundbreaking "EmpowerHer" Growth Council Think Tank series. This initiative, launched in July 2023, is dedicated to tackling the monumental growth gap in women’s health, which currently stands at a staggering $17 trillion. To address this complex issue, Frost & Sullivan has brought together a diverse array of stakeholders, including experts, thought leaders, industry professionals, and key policymakers.


Frost & Sullivan Launches the EmpowerHer Program to Bridge the Growth Gap in Women’s Health

The growth gap in women’s health is a multifaceted challenge rooted in three critical areas: a lack of comprehensive clinical research, limited access to healthcare, and insufficient funding for women’s health technology. This formidable gap poses a significant obstacle to delivering effective care to women worldwide.

Burdens of Health: Cost We Can’t Ignore?

Recognizing that closing this gap requires a collective effort from society as a whole, Frost & Sullivan has taken a bold step forward with its Growth Council Think Tanks.

Growth Council Think Tanks: A Dynamic Platform for Change

Frost & Sullivan’s Growth Council Think Tank series is designed to serve as a dynamic platform for addressing these pressing issues. Over 12 months, these Think Tanks will provide a forum for experts and stakeholders to share knowledge, foster innovation, and empower women.

Reenita Das, Growth Coach & Senior Vice President at Frost & Sullivan, expressed the program’s vision, stating, "Through our Growth Council Think Tanks, we aim to empower women, improve access to quality healthcare, and contribute to the overall well-being of women across the world. By bringing together diverse perspectives and expertise, we are confident that we will create tangible outcomes and establish new benchmarks for the industry."

Key Perspectives from the Think Tank on "Top Growth Opportunities in Accelerating Women’s Health"

Reenita Das, Growth Coach & Senior Vice President at Frost & Sullivan, presented transformative perspectives on the Top Growth Opportunities in Women’s Health, including:

Tailored Approaches for Different Age Groups: Recognizing the evolving roles and priorities of women in various age groups is crucial for effective engagement and segment positioning. Gender Disparities in Heart Disease: Addressing gender disparities in heart disease requires a nuanced approach, involving research into sex-specific variations in diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. Addressing Obesity as a Neurobehavioral Disease: The future of obesity management demands a transformation in healthcare models to better support long-term strategies. Innovations in Women’s Mental Health: Beyond 2030, innovative interventions will be required to address women’s mental health, necessitating novel partnerships and groundbreaking solutions.

Key Perspectives from the Think Tank on "FDA’s Bold Vision for Women’s Health"

Reenita Das, along with Terri Cornelison, Chief Medical Officer and Director, Health of Women, Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH), US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), collaborated to craft transformative perspectives, including:

Sex and Gender-Specific Clinical Trials: Clinical trials for chronic diseases should incorporate criteria tailored to the unique characteristics and needs of both men and women. Early-stage Endometriosis Diagnosis: Early tracking of menstruation cycles and expanding registries for conditions such as endometriosis are essential for improving healthcare outcomes. Advancing Women’s Health through Data: A focus on science and gender, alongside the development of longitudinal studies, will lay the foundation for holistic and personalized care for women.

Frost & Sullivan invites individuals, organizations, and industry stakeholders to actively participate in this groundbreaking initiative. Together, we can pave the way for advancements in women’s health, shape the future of healthcare delivery, and make a lasting difference in the lives of women everywhere.

TRON Founder Justin Sun Adds His Top-Tier Collection to Giacometti’s Le Nez Exhibition in Paris

TRON Founder Justin Sun Adds His Top-Tier Collection to Giacometti’s Le Nez Exhibition in Paris

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 10 October 2023 – On October 7, the exhibition of Giacometti’s Le Nez (The Nose), co-sponsored by TRON and APENFT Foundation, was unveiled in Paris. Justin Sun, founder of TRON and member of the HTX Global Advisory Board, graced the occasion with his edition of the masterpiece, capturing the attention of the industry.

Justin Sun's collection unveiled in the exhibition
Justin Sun’s collection unveiled in the exhibition

This exhibition brings together, for the very first time, all editions of Le Nez by Alberto Giacometti, a Swiss surrealistic artist of immense national significance. In addition to Sun’s collection, the exhibition also encompasses three plaster editions and a virtual representation of the bronze sculpture edition, accompanied by all its drawings and archives from the Giacometti Foundation and the Center Pompidou.

Industry professionals in attendance affirmed that this exhibition showcases the profound influence of Le Nez on contemporary art in all dimensions. They also praised the timeless vigor of Giacometti, a pivotal sculptor of the 20th century. And the presence of Justin Sun, a leading light in the Web3 realm, undoubtedly made this event even more special. Meanwhile, the partnership between the Giacometti Foundation, TRON, and APENFT is a groundbreaking cooperation in the art industry that signifies the accelerated fusion between digital art and traditional art.

Offline debut of Justin Sun’s Le Nez collection puts digital art on a fast track to fame

In the exhibition, the 1964 version of Le Nez from Justin Sun’s personal collection, also one of the highlights of the event, made its debut offline for the first time. This artwork was acquired by Sun at the 2021 Sotheby’s New York Fall Auction for $78.4 million and was then donated to APENFT Foundation. Some industry insiders believe that although the artwork was previously displayed through metaverse art galleries and other similar platforms, its physical presence in this exhibition still offers a rare chance for art enthusiasts. It brings top-tier artworks closer to the general public, allowing them to closely observe this exceptional piece, appreciate its distinctive artistic allure, and find inspiration from it.

Regarding the debut of this top-tier collection, Sun expressed his immense honor in a tweet, and he eagerly anticipates the future possibilities that blockchain technology could bring to art. In a collaborative video with Douyin influencer Cai Luoli, Sun showcased this collection while giving her a tour of his “private art gallery”.

As a dedicated proponent and innovator in the realm of art, particularly digital art, Sun has attended many prominent digital art summits. He has also made substantial investments in acquiring artwork pieces from globally celebrated artists as well as esteemed digital artists. Covering works by the likes of Pablo Picasso, Andy Warhol, Alberto Giacometti, Beeple, and Pak, his collection has topped 1 billion yuan in value. Sun also donated several famous pieces in his collection, including Femme nue couchée au collier and OCEAN FRONT, to APENFT Foundation to support the growth of digital art.

The Giacometti Foundation extolled Sun’s efforts, which it believes are a testimony to the determination of this blockchain, digital, and VR pioneer to protect physical artworks and reconcile the conflicts between the virtual and physical worlds in the course of nurturing modern artistic masterpieces and contemporary digital artworks.

TRON and APENFT co-organize the exhibition to fuel the fusion of Web3 and traditional art

TRON and APENFT, partners of this exhibition, have always been at the forefront of pushing the boundaries of digital art. With a sponsorship of $1 million, TRON will continue its partnership with the Giacometti Foundation, along with APENFT, to fund artwork research and grow relevant projects, according to official sources.

Sun once predicted that 50% of the world’s top 100 artists and artworks would be recorded as NFTs in the following decade, during which blockchain technology would build a bridge to merge traditional art and emerging technologies.

It was for this cause that APENFT came into being. Leveraging TRON’s underlying technology, APENFT is committed to catalyzing the creator economy and bridging the virtual and real worlds. It sponsored an assortment of art summits held by Christie’s New York and the likes, making itself the first-ever art foundation that collects artworks across different industries and offers a gateway for traditional art maestros to enter the NFT world.

TRON also strives to boost the uptake of blockchain technologies in the art scene. The TRC-721 standard for on-chain NFTs charges smaller amounts of transaction fees whilst processing transactions at a higher speed. Its standardized specifications and endpoints for NFT creation, issuance, and transaction also make it an ideal choice for developers and users alike. This exhibition is another landmark in TRON’s cooperation with top-notch art institutions, which marks a new model for the integration between Web3 and artworks. It unlocks a myriad of opportunities for artists and art collectors while offering more transparent options with a broader reach and enhanced security to trade and spread the art.

The opening of the Le Nez exhibition celebrates the advent of a new epoch in art, in which the marriage between digital art and traditional art heralds extraordinary art experiences unseen before. The display of Justin Sun’s collection adds more color to the event, and TRON and APENFT’s ongoing cooperation with the Giacometti Foundation will continue to energize the art sector with new possibilities.
