The "Nobel Prize" is awarded to those who have made "the greatest contribution to human" in physics, chemistry, peace, physiology, medicine or literature. It is internationally recognized as the highest honor, and affirms the recipients’ achievement in their fields. Since 1901, about 18 men have won the Nobel Prize for every woman, and only a handful of women have won physics prizes.
Nobel laureate Prof. Donna Strickland was among a group of outstanding women science workers who graced the 2021 Rose in Science event held on International Women’s Day in Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics and Physics (CIOMP), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).
