Tim Hunt, 2001 Nobel Laureate in Physiology or Medicine
Tim Hunt recounted how he chooses his research topics, how he comes upon their solutions, "often more by luck than full-frontal attack", and he offered his personal perspectives on conducting Nobel Prize awarded research. The lecture was followed by an open question and answer session. In addition, he hosted a roundtable meeting with selected students entitled ‘How to be Curious and Creative’. On 2 December, Tim Hunt gave a further lecture to scientists at AstraZeneca’s research and development facility at Alderley Park, Cheshire.
