	David H. Hubel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		David Hunter Hubel (born February 27, 1926) was co-recipient with Torsten Wiesel of the 1981 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, for their discoveries concerning information processing in the visual system; the prize was shared with Roger W. Sperry for his independent research on the cerebral hemispheres.
		Hubel and Wiesel received the Nobel Prize for two major contributions: 1.
		Hubel and Wiesel's experiments showed that the ocular dominance develops irreversibly early in childhood development.

		All three scientists were honoured for their investigations of brain function, Hubel and Wiesel in particular for their collaborative discoveries concerning information processing in the visual system.
		Hubel attended McGill University in Montreal, receiving a bachelor's degree in 1947 and a doctorate in medicine in 1951.

		All three scientists were honoured for their investigations of brain function, Wiesel and Hubel in particular for their collaborative studies of the visual cortex, which is located in the occipital lobes of the cerebrum.
		Wiesel and Hubel also studied the effects of various visual impairments in young animals, and their results lent strong support to the view that prompt surgery is imperative in correcting certain eye defects that are detectable in newborn children.
		Wiesel moved, along with Hubel, to Harvard University in 1959 and was named the Robert Winthrop professor of neurobiology in 1974.
