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.
