2024 Nobel Prize in Medicine: How Micro-RNA Molecules Transformed Gene Control and Medicine

In the world of medicine, some of the most extraordinary discoveries come from understanding the smallest components. This year’s Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for their breakthrough in revealing how small RNA molecules regulate gene activity. These molecules act as gatekeepers, determining which genes are active at any moment, a process essential for everything from development to disease prevention.
