NOBEL PRIZE IN PHYSIOLOGY OR MEDICINE: HIV, HPV Researchers Honored, But One Scientist Is Left Out
Jon Cohen and Martin Enserink
The 2008 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine has been awarded to Luc Montagnier and Françoise Barré-Sinoussi for their discovery of the virus that causes AIDS--but not Robert Gallo, whom many consider to have co-discovered the virus with Montagnier. A third prize went to German virologist Harald zur Hausen for finding that human papillomaviruses can cause cervical cancer.
