2024 Ig Nobel Prizes. Won by a combination of japanese and american researchers, the physiology ig nobel prize solved a crucial question: These and other unusual research endeavors were honored tonight in a virtual ceremony to announce the 2024 recipients of the annual ig nobel prizes.
How about experiments on the swimming ability of a dead rainbow trout or that time biologists tried to startle cows by popping paper bags by their heads?
