By the end of 20 15, at least 70 Nobel Prize winners and at least 8 Fields Prize winners had worked or studied in Berkeley. Berkeley also has the top 20 winners of Turing Award (the highest award in computer science) in the world. Chen Shengshen, a master of mathematics, established the National Institute of Mathematical Sciences here. Robert Oppenheimer, the "father of the atomic bomb" who teaches here, led the manufacture of the world's first atomic bomb; Ernest Lawrence, winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics, invented the cyclotron here and established Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, the top national laboratory in the United States. Glenn theodore seaborg, winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, and others have discovered sixteen chemical elements here, which are far ahead in the world, among which the 97th element "Bk" is named after "thulium".
