Meet Kitagawa, Robson & Yaghi - trio that bagged Nobel Prize in Chemistry for developing metal–organic frameworks

Susumu Kitagawa, Richard Robson, and Omar Yaghi were awarded the 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for developing metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). These materials feature large cavities allowing molecules to pass through, enabling applications like water harvesting from desert air, pollutant removal, and carbon capture. Their work provides new avenues for chemical problem-solving.
