George Emil Palade remains the only Romanian-born Nobel laureate in a scientific discipline, awarded the prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1974 for his work mapping the ultrastructure of the cell — specifically his identification of ribosomes and characterization of the secretory pathway. He did the bulk of that work at Rockefeller University and later UC San Diego, having emigrated to the United States in 1946. The university bearing his name in Târgu Mureș was renamed in his honor in 2011.
