This year's Nobel Prize for medicine is going to one German and two French scientists. The Nobel jury said in Stockholm that Harald zur Hausen of Germany won the prize for his work into the cause of cervical cancer. Francoise Barré-Sinoussi and Luc Montagnier of France received the award for their discovery of the virus that causes AIDS. Medicine is traditionally the first of the Nobel prizes awarded each year.
