Japanese Knotweed (Reynoutria japonica), native to Asia, is one of the most damaging invasive alien plants in the world. It became her major research focus and led to publication of a groundbreaking analysis of the history and distribution of this invasive weed in 1977. She continued with this research for a further 20 years during her retirement. She used specimens from herbaria and information from the horticultural literature in Europe to show how the group of plants now called Japanese Knotweed changed from prizewinners in the Netherlands in 1847 to notifiable weeds in the UK in 1981.

A dispute made even more furious by > the fact that both directors have been frequent prizewinners at festivals. > Our thanks are due to Jean-José Richer for having cut authoritatively across > the debate: "This double distinction awarded in strict equality (to The > Seven Samurai and Sansho Dayu [Sansho the Bailiff], Venice [Film Festival] > 1954) is unwarranted… There can be no doubt that any comparison between > Mizoguchi and Kurosawa turns irrefutably to the advantage of the former. > Alone among the Japanese film-makers known to us, he goes beyond the > seductive but minor stage of exoticism to a deeper level where one need no > longer worry about false prestige" (Cahiers du Cinéma 40). In the same article, Godard refers to Kurosawa as "merely a more elegant Ralph Habib", referring to a very obscure contemporary French director who (apparently) specialized in adventure films.

A hundred years after the discovery of the disease, speculation still remains regarding the two official nominations of Carlos Chagas for the Nobel Prize. The reason why the prize was not awarded to this brilliant scientist may have been the strong opposition that he faced in Brazil, from some physicians and researchers of that time. They went as far as questioning the existence of Chagas disease, thereby possibly influencing the decision of the Nobel Committee not to award the prize to him. Analysis of the database of the Nobel prize archives, with the revelation of the names of nominators, nominees, and prizewinners spanning the years 1901-1951, brought information not only about what was considered to be a scientific achievement at that time, but also about who the important scientists were and what the relationships between them were.
