Stanford Professor Receives 2008 Lasker-Koshland Award for Special Achievement in Medical Science

Stanley Falkow has spent his life studying how bacteria cause human disease. But ask him whose side he's on, and he's likely to pause. Or maybe not. Actually, it's been pretty clear all along-as evidenced by an experiment in graduate school that required him to feed hapless bacteria to a hungry slime mold.
