Jennifer Doudna is the first female faculty member at Berkeley to win the Nobel Prize. UCLA go their first female winner yesterday with Andrea Ghez sharing the prize with Cal's Reinhard Genzel. Stanford's Nobel Prize faculty winners have been all male.
It's kind of a shame that Doudna won the award in this pandemic year since I'm sure the campus celebration would have been tremendous in a normal year with students and staff around. I guess they can always do more celebrations later, when things go back to normal.
Let's get to the important stuff, shall we? The real question following Doudna's well-deserved Nobel: Where will her campus parking space be located?
Go Bears!
So happy for this :)
It would have been much better if we could have arranged for you to cover this news
Congrats to Jennifer, up to 25 'active' Nobel prize winners.

Honored at the halftime show, for example.
Or honorary captains at a football game, like Smoot in 2007.
