Neufeld</strong> (1981). Selected for her elucidation of the enzyme defects in some mucopolysaccharide storage diseases.</li> <li><strong>Jesse Roth</strong> (1980). Selected for advancing the understanding of mechanisms through which insulin and other peptide hormones interact with cells and of the ways in which these interactions are altered in disease states.</li> <li><strong>Donald S. Fredrickson</strong> (1978). Selected for his contributions to the understanding of the genetic, biochemical, and clinical aspects of the hyperlipoproteinemias.</li> <li><strong>Baruch S. Blumberg</strong> (1975).
