Why do living things almost always use just one version of certain molecules, while the mirror-image version is largely absent from nature? It's a question that puzzled scientists for more than a century. This year's Chemistry Nobel goes to two researchers whose work helped explain that mystery and opened new possibilities for developing safer and more effective medicines.

Define modern medicine.<br>For decades they know about chirality and its effects.<br>In the 70ies and 80ies Prof. F. Vögtle also already worked on chirality and supramolecular chemistry.

So... we are now able to separate the Good from the Neutral and the Bad? Well that's good 👍 ... as long no one wants to ship only the Bad 😮

inaccurate, it's not that mirror versions can't or don't produce life, it's more so about compatibility and partially randomness, a huge worry in the field, whether legitimate or not, is mirror life, an artificial cell created with mirror compounds and chemicals would be invisible to our life, and we would be invisible, hypothetically, to it, so it could potentially run rampant and suffocate every other cell of any natural chemical or element
