The awards are in their 32nd year and 'honor achievements that first make people laugh, and then make them think.”
Running since 1991, the Ig Nobels are the brainchild of the Annals of Improbable Research magazine and are co-sponsored by the Harvard-Radcliffe Science Fiction Association and the Harvard-Radcliffe Society of Physics Students. It was created as a biting satire of the Nobel prize ceremony, one that wouldstudies that “cannot or should not be reproduced.” But more often these days, the prizes recognize research that is funny but still valuable.
Traditionally, the prizes are awarded by genuine Nobel prize winners at an in-person ceremony held at Harvard University. Due to the covid-19 pandemic, however, the awards have been presented online since 2020, and 2022 was no exception. But this year, the organizers did find a way to capture some of the usual Ig absurdity.
