    Is there really no dedicated thread on this already?

    2018 Awards:

    Among several:

    Dr. Akira Horiuchi, a Japanese pediatrician, was honored with the medicine prize for his at-home, seated self-colonoscopy procedure, while a group of Spanish university traffic researchers took home an Ig for measuring the frequency, motivation and effects of shouting and cursing while driving. The team, which found that one in four drivers yells or curses behind the wheel, won the Ig peace prize.​

    Web browsers accessible here show no results for colonoscopedia. Not sure I'd call it low-hanging fruit, but...
