LYMPHOLOGY, MEDICAL IGNORANCE/IGNORAMICS AND THE NOBEL CONNECTION: Howard Florey, Joshua Lederberg, and Françoise Barre-Sinoussi
- MH Witte
Abstract
COMMENTARY:
Intriguing interludes with Nobel laureates have marked the history of Lymphology. Bounded (or rather unbounded) by a mutual fascination with ignorance and the unknown,their curiosity converged around microbes,infections, and host responses mediated by the lymphatic system. These studies transcended a simple "molecular model of life."
Keywords: Lymphology, ignorance, ignoramics, Florey, Lederberg, Barre-Sinoussi
