The Louisa Gross Horwitz Prize

Awarded annually since its inception in 1967, the Louisa Gross Horwitz Prize is given to recognize exceptional accomplishments in biological and biochemical research. Like the Lasker, the Horwitz Prize is also an excellent predictor of future Nobel Laureates; half of its past recipients (33 out of 68) ultimately won the Nobel Prize. The prize was named for the mother of Columbia benefactor S. Gross Horwitz, who was the daughter of former American Medical Association president and surgery textbook author Dr. Samuel David Gross.
