For his discovery, Steinman was recently awarded the 2007 Albert Lasker Award for Basic Medical Research. Yet the man behind the research holds his praise for the many other scientists—in the U.S. and abroad—who have further advanced the therapeutic promise of DCs. %[ 3/29/2024 %U https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20071995
