	2003 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine - - Revisionist History?
		On October 6, 2003, the Nobel Committee announced that Paul C. Lauterbur, PhD, an American chemist and Sir Peter Mansfield, PhD, a British physicist were the winners of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their work on the development of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).
		Nobel Prize winners assume an elite place in the historical record, however, and Damadian is concerned that history will therefore not acknowledge his role.
		Nobel Prizes should be awarded for discoveries, not for personality or religious beliefs.

	Blog, MD / 2006 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine
		The 2006 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was just announced a couple of hours ago and it went to Andrew Fire and Craig Mello for the discovery of RNAi (RNA interference).
		The two scientists who won are young (both are under 50), and their discovery has been instrumental in allowing us to better understand the role of different genes by easily allowing scientists to silence or “knock down” different genes in cells and see the downstream effects.
		When Kary Mullis won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1993 for the discovery of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), there was a good bit of controversy within the scientific community.
