In this episode of the Physics World Weekly podcast we explain how the diffuse scattering of light could improve the lives of children with sickle cell disease. We talk about what it is like to win a Nobel prize and also about the tremendous amount of work that goes into choosing the winners. Physics World editors also offer a few predictions of who could bag next week’s Nobel Prize for physics and reminisce about what it was like to be a child who was obsessed with science.
