*Nobel Prize Surprise

6 October 2008
In a snub to one of the world's most famous virologists, the Nobel Assembly at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden, announced today that it has awarded the 2008 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine to Luc Montagnier and Françoise Barré-Sinoussi of the Pasteur Institute in Paris for their discovery of the virus that causes AIDS. The decision passes over Robert Gallo of the Institute of Human Virology at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore, with whom Montagnier had a long-running battle over both credit for the AIDS virus's discovery and the patents related to the test used to detect the virus in blood.

*'Glowing' jellyfish grabs Nobel
BBC, Wednesday, 8 October 2008 11:58 UK
A clever trick borrowed from jellyfish has earned two Americans and one Japanese scientist a share of the chemistry Nobel Prize.
Martin Chalfie, Roger Tsien and Osamu Shimomura made it possible to exploit the genetic mechanism responsible for luminosity in the marine creatures.
Today, countless scientists use this knowledge to tag biological systems.

*Nobel prize for chemistry illuminates disease
guardian.co.uk, Wednesday October 08
The discovery of a green glowing protein from jellyfish has netted two Americans and one Japanese scientists the Nobel prize for chemistry. Each will take an equal share of the 10m Swedish kronor (£790,000) award.
Green flourescent protein (GFP) is now one of the most important tools in biochemistry. Attaching it to other proteins or structures within cells allows scientists to watch the cell's machinery at work.
