John Goodenough: World's oldest Nobel Prize winner dies at 100

John Goodenough, the world's oldest Nobel Prize winner who played a crucial role in developing the lithium-ion battery, has died at the age of 100.
Dr Goodenough was awarded a Nobel Prize in chemistry in 2019 at the age of 97 for his work on batteries, including the development of the lithium-ion battery.
Dr Goodenough started his career at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he worked for 24 years and helped develop random-access memory for the computer.

Seems to me that John was Goodenough!

He may retain the crown for only 4 month.  The next oldest living Nobel prize winner is only 4 month younger.
