As well as a paddle from Stephen Hawking's alma mater, The University of Cambridge:
Although, he is not a laureate, it is still pretty cool.
I also got to see a light leader that came from C.E.R.N., the European laboratory for particle physics on the Franco-Swiss border:
I hope to get to visit C.E.R.N. one day - it is on my life list!
