For one week every October, the world awaits the Nobel Prize announcements. While much publicity is focused on the laureates, the awards in the sciences also recognize high-impact fields of research. The 2013 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine honored three scientists whose research defined the mechanisms by which cellular vesicles sort proteins to their final destinations. This research shaped a modern understanding of how protein sorting controls cellular identity and function.

Increased telomerase activity has been considered as a conspicuous sign of human cancers. The catalytic cores of telomerase involve a reverse transcriptase and the human telomerase RNA (hTR). However, current detection of telomerase is largely limited to its activity at the tissue and single-cell levels.

In 1924, the Dutch physiologist Willem Einthoven received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his discovery of the mechanism of the electrocardiogram (ECG). Anno 2024, the ECG is commonly used as a diagnostic tool in cardiology. In the paper 'Le Télécardiogramme', Einthoven described the first recording of the now most common cardiac arrhythmia: atrial fibrillation (AF).
