SEVERO OCHOA
The 1959 Nobel Prize-winner for his RNA research penned his signature on this index
card
Signature: "Severo Ochoa", 5x3 card. Born in Spain, biochemist Severo Ochoa (1905-1993)
travelled throughout Europe in the late 1930s after the Spanish Civil War began. He worked
at the Kaiser Wilhelm Medical Research Institute in Berlin, Germany, and also stopped in
England before travelling across the Atlantic to the United States. He was awarded the Nobel
Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1959 alongside Arthur Kromberg for their work on the
synthesis of RNA and DNA. He received the Nobel Prize while employed by the New York
University School of Medicine. Ochoa continued his work on RNA and protein synthesis for
decades afterwards, returning to Spain in 1985 to consult with Spanish scientists about their
research. Ink marks on verso show through faintly at signature. Otherwise, fine condition.
