Here is a list of the recipients of the Nobel Prize in Medicine over the last decade:

2025: Americans Mary E. Brunkow and Fred Ramsdell, along with Japan’s Shimon Sakaguchi, recognized for their studies on the regulation and control of the immune system.

2024: American researchers Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun, recognized for their identification of microRNA and its function in gene regulation.

2023: Hungarian scientist Katalin Kariko and American Drew Weissman were recognized for their research in messenger RNA (mRNA) technology, which led to the development of revolutionary COVID-19 vaccines.

2022: Swedish scientist Svante Paabo, recognized for his research on the genetic material of ancient hominins and the development of humans.

2021: The US-based pair David Julius and Ardem Patapoutian, recognized for their research on human receptors that enable us to perceive heat and physical contact.

2020: Americans Harvey Alter and Charles Rice, along with British scientist Michael Houghton, were recognized for their identification of the Hepatitis C virus, which paved the way for accurate blood screening methods and the creation of antiviral treatments.

2019: William Kaelin and Gregg Semenza from the United States, along with Peter Ratcliffe from Britain, were recognized for their work in uncovering the fundamental mechanisms by which cells respond and adjust to varying oxygen levels.

2018: Immunologists James Allison from the United States and Tasuku Honjo from Japan, for discovering a method to unlock the immune system’s constraints, enabling it to combat cancer cells more effectively.

2017: American scientists Jeffrey Hall, Michael Rosbash, and Michael Young were awarded for their research into the internal biological clock that regulates the sleep-wake cycles of various organisms.

2016: Yoshinori Ohsumi from Japan, recognized for his research on autophagy — a mechanism in which cells essentially consume themselves — that, when malfunctioning, may lead to conditions like Parkinson’s disease and diabetes.
