Exact excerpt

The time lag between the publication of a major scientific discovery and the conferment of a Nobel Prize has been rapidly increasing for the natural science disciplines. For 2010–2019, the average time gap was 30 years in chemistry, 28 years in physics, and 29 years in medicine; the study also reports that 18% of laureates received the award more than 30 years after their most influential publication.
