Records and curiosities

From 1901 to 2025, the Nobel Prize in Medicine has had 232 laureates, 14 of them women. The youngest was Frederick G. Banting, who turned 32 in the award year of 1923; the oldest, Peyton Rous, who turned 87 in 1966. From the Portuguese speaking world: Egas Moniz (1949) and Peter Medawar (1960). The prize was not awarded in 1915 to 1918, 1921, 1925, 1940 to 1942.

The category's full name is Physiology or Medicine, and the first prize, in 1901, went to Emil von Behring for serum therapy against diphtheria. It is also the category with the strongest Portuguese speaking accent: Portugal's Egas Moniz won in 1949, and Peter Medawar, the 1960 laureate, was born in Brazil, still the only Nobel winner of any category born on Brazilian soil.
