Medicine Award Kicks off Nobel Prize Announcements
Australian-born U.S. citizen Elizabeth Blackburn and American Carol Greider have already won a series of medical honors for their enzyme research and experts say they could be among the front-runners for Nobel.
Among the pairs possible rivals are Frenchman Pierre Chambon and Americans Ronald Evans and Elwood Jensen, who opened up the field of studying proteins called nuclear hormone receptors.
Alfred Nobel, the Swede who invented dynamite, established the prizes in his will in the categories of medicine, physics, chemistry, literature and peace. The economics prize is technically not a Nobel but a 1968 creation of Swedens central bank.
Hans Jornvall, secretary of the medicine prize committee, said the 10 million kronor prize encourages groundbreaking research but he did not think winning it was the primary goal for scientists.
In 2006, Blackburn, of the University of California, San Francisco, and Greider, of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, shared the Lasker prize for basic medical research with Jack Szostak of Harvard Medical School. Their work set the stage for research suggesting that cancer cells use telomerase to sustain their uncontrolled growth.

諾貝爾獎的公布從醫學獎開始
由于對酶的研究，出生于澳大利亞的美國人伊麗莎白.布萊克本和另外一個美國人開羅.格雷德已經贏得了一系列醫學方面的榮譽。專家認為他們最可能獲得這次的醫學獎。
布萊克本和格雷德的競爭對手有來自法國的皮埃爾.尚本，來自美國的羅納德.依文斯和艾爾伍德.杰森，他們開創了核激素受體這一蛋白質研究的新領域。
阿爾佛雷德.諾貝爾是瑞典人，他發明了甘油炸藥。他在遺囑里確立了諾貝爾而是瑞典中央銀行在1968年創立的。
醫學獎委員會秘書漢斯.喬恩瓦說，一千萬瑞典克朗的獎金可以鼓勵開拓性研究，然而，他認為，贏得獎金并不是科學家的初衷。
2006年，來自舊金山加利福尼亞大學的布萊克本，來自巴爾的摩約翰.霍普金斯大學的格雷德與來自哈佛醫學院的杰克.紹斯塔克共同獲得了拉斯克爾基礎醫學獎。他們的工作為研究癌細胞利用端粒酶維持不可控制的生長打下了基礎。
