Doherty, Peter C. My childhood was spent on the outskirts of the sub-tropical city of Brisbane. I have a younger brother, Ian, and we grew up as part of a traditional, extended family that was very much influenced by the values of our two grandmothers. The one was a devout Methodist, the other a lapsed Quaker who was born in England and embraced the informal Australian life style with great enthusiasm. My parents (Linda and Eric) were first and second generation Australians, the various elements of the family coming from County Louth (in the 1840's), Lancashire and Essex. Eric Doherty, a clever and entertaining man, trained initially as a telephone mechanic and was an administrator involved in the planning of telephone services. His mother had been left in straitened financial circumstances when my grandfather succumbed to pneumonia during the 1919 influenza epidemic. My father communicated his frustration at not having received an adequate formal education and, with his strong encouragement, the desire to learn and understand became the major focus of my life. Linda Byford was a piano teacher who, with her two brothers, spent much of her youth on the tennis court. After marriage she cared for her family, played Chopin Debussy , and Beethoven and grew roses. She gave me an appreciation, and emotional need for, classical music, but did not pass on the genes for tennis. The Byfords were devastated by the death of the eldest son, who was captured at the fall of Singapore and lost in a Japanese transport torpedoed by an American submarine. I remember my other Byford uncle shivering with recurrent malaria that he contracted during the fighting in New Guinea. I share Alfred Nobel's conviction that war is the greatest of all human disasters. Infectious disease runs a good second.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Tuesday, Oct. 8, 1996 Greg Folkers folkers@nih.gov Doherty, Zinkernagel Win Nobel Prize "The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) is very pleased that two of our colleagues in immunology research, one of whom is a long-term grantee, have been awarded the 1996 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine," says Anthony S. Fauci, M.D., NIAID director. Peter C. Doherty, Ph.D., an NIAID grantee since 1977, and Rolf M. Zinkernagel, Ph.D., an NIAID grantee in the late 1970s and mid-1980s, received the award today for their discovery of how the immune system recognizes virus-infected cells. "Their observations paved the way for the current understanding of how the immune system recognizes both microbial invaders and the body's own cells," says Dr. Fauci. The two scientists collaborated on their prize-winning research between 1973 and 1975 at the John Curtin School of Medical Research in Canberra, Australia. Dr. Doherty is currently chairman of the immunology department at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, Tenn., and holds the hospital's Michael F. Tamer Endowed Chair for Immunology Biomedical Research. Dr. Zinkernagel is professor and director of the Institute of Experimental Immunology at the University of Zurich in Switzerland. "Dr. Doherty and Dr. Zinkernagel established that the immune system recognizes microbial antigens in association with self molecules known as major histocompatibility antigens on a cell's surface," says Dr. Fauci. "Not only did their observations reveal how the immune system recognizes microbial invaders, but they also helped us understand, more broadly, how the immune system recognizes a molecule as self or non-self."

Nobel Prize announced for work in immunology October 7, 1996 Web posted at: 9:15 a.m. EDT (1315 GMT) STOCKHOLM, Sweden (CNN) The Nobel Assembly announced Monday the $1.12 million dollar Nobel Prize in medicine would be awarded to a team studying how the immune system recognizes viruses. Australian Peter Doherty and Swiss-born Rolf Zinkernagel worked on the prize-winning project while both were at the John Curtin School of Medical Research in Canberra, Australia, from 1973 to 1975. The pair's work "relates both to efforts to strengthen the immune response against invading microorganisms and certain form of cancer, and to efforts to diminish the effects of autoimmune reactions in inflammatory disease," the Karolinska Institute said in a statement announcing the prize. The two scientists used mice to study how the immune system, particularly T-lymphocytes, recognize virus-infected cells and distinguish them from healthy cells. They discovered "killer lymphocytes," which in a test tube attacked and killed cells infected by a virus. But they also discovered that the "killer T-cells" worked only against a specific virus in a specific mouse and could not be transferred to a different animal. Such discoveries have had a significant impact on the study of diseases such as rheumatic conditions, multiple sclerosis and diabetes, the institute said.

Zinkernagel jointly won medicine's top honor for their discovery that CMI responses are triggered by the T-cell recognition of foreign antigens in the context of the "self" molecules now known as major histocompatibility complex (MHC) antigens.

Important note: Information in this article was accurate in 1996. The state of the art may have changed since the publication date. Nobel Man: AIDS Vaccine Likely The Associated Press - Saturday, December 7, 1996 9:34 am EST. Kevin Costelloe, Associated Press Writer STOCKHOLM, Sweden (AP) A winner of this year's Nobel Prize in medicine predicted Saturday that within 10 years there will be a vaccine to delay the outbreak of full-blown AIDS in people infected with the HIV virus. Rolf M. Zinkernagel also said the vaccine he envisioned would vastly reduce chances that an HIV-infected person would transfer the virus to other people. But Zinkernagel said such a vaccine would not completely eliminate chances of infection. For those inoculated, it might take 20 to 40 years to develop AIDS after being infected with HIV, he said. It currently takes about 10 years or so for an infected person to develop full-blown AIDS, the debilitating disease that ravages the body's natural ability to ward off illness.

Premios Nobel de Fisiología y Medicina Premio Nobel : premios concedidos cada año a personas, entidades u organismos por sus aportaciones extraordinarias realizadas durante el año anterior en los campos de la Física, Química, Fisiología y Medicina, Literatura, Paz y Economía. Otorgados por primera vez el 10 de diciembre de 1901, los premios están financiados por los intereses devengados de un fondo en fideicomiso contemplado en el testamento del químico, inventor y filántropo sueco Alfred Bernhard Nobel. Además de una retribución en metálico, el ganador del Premio Nobel recibe también una medalla de oro y un diploma con su nombre y el campo en que ha logrado tal distinción. Los jueces pueden dividir cada premio entre dos o tres personas, aunque no está permitido repartirlo entre más de tres. Si se considerara que más de tres personas merecen el premio, se concedería de forma conjunta. El fondo está controlado por un comité de la Fundación Nobel, compuesto por seis miembros en cada mandato de dos años: cinco elegidos por los administradores de los organismos contemplados en el testamento, y el sexto nombrado por el Gobierno sueco. Los seis miembros serán ciudadanos suecos o noruegos. De acuerdo con la voluntad de Nobel, se han establecido institutos separados en Suecia y Noruega para favorecer los objetivos de la Fundación con el fin de potenciar cada uno de los cinco campos en los que se conceden los galardones. En 1968, para conmemorar su 300 aniversario, el Banco Nacional de Suecia creó el Premio de Ciencias Económicas Banco de Suecia en Memoria de Alfred Nobel, que sería otorgado por la Real Academia Sueca de las Ciencias (conocida con anterioridad por el nombre de Academia Sueca de las Ciencias). La Real Academia Sueca de las Ciencias concede también los premios de Física y Química.

We know what we are, but what may we become? Who are we? Where do we come from? What does it all mean? Biological scientists like me have a few insights on the first two, but are generally content to leave the last one to the visionaries, the philosophers, and the Hollywood fantasy machine. The big excitement in science is that the "who are we" question is in the process of being opened out in the most extraordinary way. What is being uncovered stands to have major impact on human society, and is already changing how thinking people perceive themselves and their place in the natural world. I would like to convey to you some sense of what has happened and is happening now. What happens next is up to us.
