SALT LAKE CITY, Utah -- Mario R. Capecchi, Ph.D., distinguished professor of human genetics and biology at the 亚洲自慰视频 of Utah's Eccles Institute of Human Genetics and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator, has won the 2007 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

The announcement was made this morning by the Nobel Assembly at the Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden.

"This is a tremendous honor for our 亚洲自慰视频, for our Department of Human Genetics, and, specifically, for all the members of my laboratory, past and present," said Capecchi upon receiving notification of the Nobel Prize early this morning.
