Persons who won Nobel Prizes for twice
It is a common sense that a person who can win Nobel Prize in one field during his life is regarded to be success-achieving and recognition-winning, but how about the person who wins two Nobel Prizes? They are even more rare and precious in the world.
There are four people of such preciousness in the world. They are:
Marie Courier: Poland-born French physical and chemical scientist who was respectively awarded the the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1903 and the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1911 in recognition of her discovery on the radiation phenomena, and the discovery of the elements radium and polonium by the isolation of radium.
John Bardeen: American physical scientist who was respectively awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1956 and 1972 in recognition of his research on semiconductors and the discovery of the transistor effect, and the developed theory of superconductivity.
Linus Carl Pauling: American chemical scientist who was respectively awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1954 and Peace Prize in 1962 for his research into the nature of the chemical bond and its application to the elucidation of the structure of complex substances, and his dedication into the international control of nuclear weapons and the leading of anti-nuclear experiment campaign.
Frederick Sanger: British biochemist who was respectively awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1958 and 1980 for his work on the structure of proteins, especially that of insulin, and his contributions concerning the determination of base sequences in nucleic acids.
