Autographed photos of Nobel Prize laureates in Chemistry

Kurt Wuterich is a Swiss chemist, winner of the 2002 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
The 2002 Nobel Prize in Chemistry laureate, Kurt Wuterich, showed that the NMR method, the phenomenon of nuclear magnetic resonance, can be applied to biological macromolecules. In 1985, K. Wuterich was able to develop a way to determine which atom of a large molecule each resonant signal comes from. The Wütrich method also makes it possible to calculate the distance between neighboring atoms of a single molecule, that is, ultimately, to represent its structure. The structure of several thousand protein molecules is now known, and 15-20% of the data were obtained by the Wütrich method. 

Stefan Walter Hell is a German physicist, one of the directors of the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry. Winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry (2014) "for the creation of high-resolution fluorescence microscopy".

Johann Deisenhofer is a German biochemist, winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1988. Member of the National Academy of Sciences of the USA (1997) and Leopoldina (2003). Deisenhofer, Robert Huber and Hartmut Michel were able to obtain the exact structure of the bacterial photosynthetic reaction center, for which they were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1988. 

Gerhard Ertl is a German chemist, head of the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society (1986-2004), Professor Emeritus, winner of the Wolf Prize in Chemistry (1998), winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2007. 
Gerhard Ertl studied in detail the molecular mechanism of the catalytic synthesis of ammonia on iron (the Haber-Bosch process) and the catalytic oxidation of carbon monoxide on palladium. He discovered the important phenomenon of vibrational reactions on platinum surfaces and, using a photoelectron microscope, photographed for the first time the vibrational changes in the surface structure and coating that occur during the reaction.

Dan Shechtman is an Israeli physicist and chemist, winner of the 2011 Nobel Prize in Chemistry "for the discovery of quasicrystals." In 1996, Shechtman was elected a member of the Israeli Academy of Sciences, in 2000 — a member of the National Technical Academy, in 2004 — a member of the European Academy of Sciences.
