Description

Heidelberger won an Albert Lasker Award for Basic Medical Research--often called "America's Nobel Prize" because of its prestige and because of the several laureates who have gone on to receive the Nobel Prize as well--in 1953. He was cited "for decisive contributions in developing a new subscience--the precise measuring tool of immunochemistry." Atwater himself would win the Lasker Award (posthumously) in 1958.
