Nobel Prize winner and President of the Royal Society Venki Ramakrishnan delivered the first of the Cambridge Cutting Edge Lectures at the prestigious Institut Pasteur in Paris in March 2019.  Venki’s career has been dedicated to the discovery of the form and function of ribosomes, the million atom molecules that provide the interface between DNA based genes and the proteins forming every cell in every form of life on earth. His talk, describing his struggle in the race to decipher the secrets of the ribosome was not only a voyage at the pinnacle of modern science, but also a very human saga showing how modern science really works.
