EU-funded physicist wins 2025 Nobel Prize in physics
The Nobel Prize in Physics 2025 has been awarded to Michel H. Devoret, who has participated in the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA), part of the Horizon Europe programme for research and innovation.
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded the prestigious science prize to Michel H. Devoret, alongside John Clarke and John M. Martinis "for the discovery of macroscopic quantum mechanical tunnelling and energy quantisation in an electric circuit."
Professor Devoret was a supervisor in Super MagneFiQuE, a MSCA individual fellowship project in the field of superconducting quantum electronics. With this prize, he joins the gallery of twenty MSCA fellows, scientists and supervisors who have received the high-profile award since 2010.
