Har Gobind Khorana, believed to be born on 9 January
1922, was an Indian-American biochemist. While on the faculty of the University
of Wisconsin–Madison, he shared the 1968 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine
with Marshall W. Nirenberg and Robert W. Holley for research that showed the
order of nucleotides in nucleic acids, which carry the genetic code of the cell
and control the cell's synthesis of proteins. Khorana and Nirenberg were also
awarded the Louisa Gross Horwitz Prize from Columbia University in the same
year.
