Guardian News & Media Limited October 2016

It has been a good year for British brains, which make up half the recipients of Nobel prizes in 2016 to date (the economics prize will be announced on Monday, while the literature prize comes later in the year).

British trio David Thouless, Duncan Haldane and Michael Kosterlitz received the 2016 physics prize, while Sir Fraser Stoddart shared in the chemistry prize, helping to boost the number of awards the UK has received in these categories to 23 and 24 respectively.
