Abstract

This year, the Albert Lasker Basic Medical Research Award will be shared by Richard Scheller and Thomas Südhof for their elucidation of the molecular mechanisms underlying neurotransmitter release. Their discoveries provided insight into the molecular basis of synaptic transmission and enhanced our understanding of how synaptic dysfunction may cause neuropsychiatric disorders.

摘要

今年，阿尔伯特·拉斯克基础医学研究奖将由理查德·舍勒和托马斯·祖德霍夫共同获得，以表彰他们阐明了神经递质释放的分子机制。他们的发现为突触传递的分子基础提供了深入了解，并增强了我们对突触功能障碍如何导致神经精神疾病的理解。
