The Nobel Prizes are selected annually from among the nominees proposed by the award Decrees. The award committees are composed of jury members consisting of experts for each category. The Nobel Prizes are presented to the laureates in the form of a financial award (monetary prize), a Nobel medal and a diploma. The awards are a sign of prestige that recognizes that the work done by the winners has a scientific, cultural or peaceful impact throughout the world. The Nobel Prizes are awarded every year on December 10, the anniversary of the death of Alfred Nobel, at the Nobel Prize Ceremony.
