Nobel Prize Award: Nobel Prize Finale: Economics Prize Announced

The winner of the economics prize, in memory of Alfred Nobel, will be announced in Stockholm today. The prize, which is not technically a Nobel prize, has previously been awarded to only three women out of 99 recipients. Last week, winners in the categories of medicine, physics, chemistry, literature, and peace were announced, including two German researchers, Peter Hegemann and Georg Nagel, and Canadian poet Anne Carson.

The economics prize will be awarded 12 million Swedish krona, and will be presented on December 10 in Stockholm.
