The 2023 Lasker Awards

In partnership with the Lasker Foundation, the JCI is pleased to present coverage of the 2023:

  • Lasker-DeBakey Clinical Medical Research Award, to James G. Fujimoto (Massachusetts Institute of Technology [MIT]), David Huang (Oregon Health and Science University–Casey Eye Institute), and Eric A. Swanson (MIT) for the invention of optical coherence tomography (OCT).
  • Albert Lasker Basic Medical Research Award, to Demis Hassabis and John Jumper of DeepMind for the invention of AlphaFold, the artificial intelligence (AI) system that solved the long-standing challenge of predicting the three-dimensional (3D) structure of proteins from the one-dimensional (1D) sequence of their amino acids.
