The prestigious Nobel Prizes are awarded annually on this day (Dec. 10) in twin ceremonies in Stockholm and Oslo. Britannica has been fortunate to have more than 110 Nobel Prize winners write for the encyclopedia and its related products, and in honor of today’s occasion, here’s a link to three of these posts by our many Nobel Prize-winning contributors:

• President Jimmy Carter (Peace, 2002): “Camp David Accords“
• Jody Williams (Peace, 1997): “International Campaign to Ban Landmines“
• Marie Curie, the first woman to receive a Nobel Prize (Physics, 1903; Chemistry, 1911): “Radium“
