Graphical Abstract
Viruses are the uniting theme of the 2008 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine. Françoise Barré-Sinoussi and Luc Montagnier received their Prize for the discovery of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and Harald zur Hausen identified that cervical cancer is triggered by papillomaviruses. The Nobel Laureates describe their research first-hand.
