...Association and the Albert and Mary Lasker Foundation announced winners of their 1960 Joint Awards in medical research. The recipients (who each received $2,500 and a Winged Victory statuette) included two scientists who are not medical researchers at all: German Engineer Ernst Ruska and U.S. Research Physicist James Hillier, who together are largely responsible for development of the electron microscope.
