Nobel Prize Categories - YAML
The Nobel Prize categories consist of six fields: five original categories (Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, Literature, and Peace) established in 1901 based on Alfred Nobel's will, and the Economics Prize added in 1969. Each category is selected by different institutions and awarded annually for outstanding contributions to humanity. As the world's most prestigious academic award, it represents the highest honor in science, literature, and peace activities.
