ことしのノーベル賞の発表が、日本の時間で７日夜の医学・生理学賞から始まります。８日には物理学賞、９日には化学賞の発表があります。そして１０日からは文学賞、平和賞、経済学賞の発表があります。
去年は、体のいろいろな部分になることができる「ｉＰＳ細胞」を作ることに成功した京都大学の山中伸弥教授が医学・生理学賞をもらいました。また、２０１０年の化学賞は、鈴木章さんと根岸英一さんの２人でした。２００８年には、今はアメリカ国籍の南部陽一郎さんを入れて、４人の日本人が物理学賞や化学賞をもらいました。
今までにノーベル賞をもらった日本人は、南部さんを入れて１９人です。２１世紀になってから、自然科学の３つの賞をもらった日本人は、アメリカの次で２番目です。
２年続けて日本人がノーベル賞をもらうことができるか注目が集まっています。
