SINGAPORE - For his groundbreaking work in molecular biology, which helped shape the field, Dr Sydney Brenner was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2002.
Soon, the late biologist’s Nobel Prize medal – considered the highest award in science – will be on display in his adopted home of Singapore.
The Viva Foundation for Children with Cancer, a local charity dedicated to research and medical care, will hold the medal here for at least 30 years as part of a collaboration with the Sydney Brenner Charitable Trust in Britain.
