“First make people laugh, and then make them think” Since 1991, the Ig Nobel Prize has handed out awards for achievements in science and literature that “first make people laugh, and then make them think”. Nominees for its debut ceremony included the medicine prize for the inventor of anti-gas liquids that prevent bloating and embarrassment, the biology prize for the man who developed a sperm bank exclusively for Nobelians and Olympians and the peace prize for the father of the hydrogen bomb for his efforts in changing the meaning of peace. You can discover more of these often ludicrously tongue-in-cheek experiments in this issue, and learn how some of them aren’t quite as frivolous as they first seem. Enjoy!
