Abstract
This year, the Albert Lasker Basic Medical Research Award will be shared by Richard Scheller and Thomas Südhof for their elucidation of the molecular mechanisms underlying neurotransmitter release. Their discoveries provided insight into the molecular basis of synaptic transmission and enhanced our understanding of how synaptic dysfunction may cause neuropsychiatric disorders.
