Ever since 1995, the Roger Adams Award had been given out to scholars who had made outstanding contributions to the field of organic chemistry. The award was awarded twice a year by the American Chemical Society.
Many world-class chemists had won both the Nobel Prize and Roger Adams Award.
This was one of the top awards in the field of organic synthesis.
Among the 29 winners of the Roger Adams Award, 11 of them won Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
Although the Adams Chemistry Prize was only in the field of organic synthesis, people still thought highly as if it were at the level of a Nobel Prize.

F*ck, they're not actually going to give a prize, right?!
Lu Zhou was confused and excited. Suddenly his office door opened, and Hardy walked in with Jerick and Wei Wen.
