Stanley Prusiner was awarded the 1997 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for discovering prions and elucidating the underlying principles of their mode of action. Prions, typically harmless proteins, can transform into unstable conformations, leading to harmful particles, and causing deadly dementia-related brain diseases in humans and animals. His discovery offers crucial insights into the biological mechanisms of dementia-related diseases like Alzheimer's, paving the way for drug development and new medical treatment strategies.
