Wonderful science

As I write the various Nobel Prizes are being announced.

This year’s prize for chemistry includes Scotsman Sir Fraser Stoddart and Bob Dylan got the prize for literature. But last year’s Nobel Prize for Chemistry went corporately to Tomas Lindahl, Paul Modrich and Aziz Sancar, who originate from Sweden, USA and Turkey respectively. They won it for their work on the mechanism of DNA repair.

This work was brought to my attention by Dr John Peet, one of the members of our home church. John gives a termly lecture on a Sunday afternoon dealing with all kinds of scientific subjects relating to Creation and as a church we are hugely indebted to him.
