Như vậy năm nay Stanford đoạt 2 giải Nobels, với [URL="http://news.stanford.edu/news/2012/october/nobel-prize-kobilka-101012.html"]GS Brian Kobilka đoạt Nobel in chemistry[/URL]). Điều này làm tôi nhớ lại năm 2006, Stanford cũng cùng lúc đoạt 2 giải Nobels, với GS Andrew Fire (medicine) and GS Roger Kornberg (chemistry).
