Blackburn, Carol W. Greider and Jack W. Szostak. Click for A day in the 'normal' life of a Nobel Prize Winner In 2000, (art)n created Telomeres Project on Imminent Immortality that was shown during "Genomic Issue(s): Art and Science" at The Graduate Center Art Gallery, City University of New York, February 25 through April 5, 2003 to celebrate the Human Genome Project. The News Flash: Three U.S. researchers have won the Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine for solving "a major problem in biology," the Nobel Committee announced Monday, as reported in CNN. Elizabeth H. Blackburn, Carol W. Greider and Jack W. Szostak are credited with discovering how chromosomes are protected against degradation -- a field that could shed light on human aging and diseases, including cancer. "The award of the Nobel Prize recognizes the discovery of a fundamental mechanism in the cell, a discovery that has stimulated the development of new therapeutic strategies," the committee said in a news release. The three will share the $1.4 million prize. It is the 100th year the prize will be awarded, and the first time that any Nobel in the sciences has gone to more than one woman. The work that won them the prize took place in the late 1970s and early 1980s. It centers on structures at the end of chromosomes called telomeres and an enzyme that forms them, called telomerase. |
