2013年诺贝尔奖生理学或医学奖获奖者:(从左至右)美国科学家詹姆斯.罗斯曼和兰迪.谢克曼、德国科学家托马斯-C.苏德霍夫因
中新网10月7日电据外媒消息,10月7日,2013年诺贝尔奖生理学或医学奖在瑞典卡罗琳医学院揭晓,获奖者为三人,他们分别是:美国科学家詹姆斯.罗斯曼和兰迪.舒克曼、德国科学家托马斯-C.苏德霍夫因,他们的研究成果是细胞运输系统的膜融合。
据介绍,膜融合的发现表明蛋白质和其他物质可以在细胞内和细胞间进行传递,细胞可以用这一过程来阻止它们的活动并且避免混乱。这一突破性发现解释了为什么胰岛素释入血液时会有变化、神经细胞之间的信息传达,以及病毒感染细胞的方式。
据报道,三人现在都在美国大学工作。

Ph.D. Harvard University, 1976
Postdoctoral Fellow, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1976-78
------------
He has been to all top 1-7 universities except U of Chicago.
Rothman graduated summa cum laude from Yale College in 1971 with a degree in physics.
He earned a Ph.D. in biological chemistry from Harvard Medical School in 1976.
He then spent two years as a postdoctoral associate in the laboratory of Harvey F. Lodish, a preeminent biochemist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In 1978, Rothman moved to the Department of Biochemistry at Stanford School of Medicine as an assistant professor.
He continued his research at Princeton University from 1988 until 1991, when he became the founding chair of the Department of Cellular Biochemistry and Biophysics at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York and vice chair of the Sloan-Kettering Institute. He subsequently joined Columbia University’s College of Physicians and Surgeons, where he was a professor in the Department of Physiology and Biophysics, the Clyde and Helen Wu Professor of Chemical Biology, and director of the Columbia Genome Center.
