Courtesy of Garry Nolan - The Hans Sigrist Symposium will take place at the University of Bern on Friday, December 3, 2021. This year, the prize will be awarded to Garry Nolan for his research in single cell analysis. The symposium will examine how these insights can be used for individualized forms of therapy against diseases like cancer. The 2021 Hans Sigrist Prize is awarded in the field of "The Single Cell Revolution and Precision Medicine". The prize winner is Garry Nolan of Stanford University (U.S.A.), who is recognized for his valuable work in the development of new methods to analyze single cells. His groundbreaking research, specifically the adaptation of the "CyTOF" technology for immunology in his lab, allows the precise analysis of dozens of parameters of single cells.
