We're thrilled to announce the 2026 #KavliPrize Laureates, scientists pushing boundaries of what humanity knows in #astrophysics #nanoscience #neuroscience. They have revealed new chapters in the story of our universe, the smallest materials, and how the brain works. 1/2

This policy will devastate scientific progress in the US. It will make it impossible to retain the greatest scientists in the US.

✅✅ A reminder by Dr. Rahaf Ajaj: She wasn’t on the Stanford list… but she made it to the Nobel stage. 🏅 Mary E. Brunkow, one of this year’s Nobel Prize winners in Medicine, has only 34 published papers and an H-index of 21. She never appeared in Stanford’s ranking of the world’s top 2% of scientists. She didn’t chase citations, metrics, or the spotlight. Yet, she became part of a discovery that changed how humanity understands the immune system. Today, while many are busy chasing numbers, titles, and rankings — she reminds us what truly matters in science: the question. 🔹 She wasn’t running after the lists. 🔹 She was running after the truth. Because in the end, it’s not about how many papers you publish… It’s about how deeply your idea can reshape the world. Focus on your idea, not your ranking.
