Medicine Nobel
The 2023 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine being conferred on Hungarian biochemist Katalin Karikó and American physician-scientist Drew Weissman is a case of well-deserved recognition (“Medicine Nobel 2023 goes to duo who paved the way for mRNA COVID vaccines”, page 1, October 3). This is work that is a fine example of ‘laboratory to the field’ and the saving of millions of lives. It is a crucial incentive to the medical fraternity to come up with other novel vaccines and medicines to prevent future epidemics and pandemics.
