Deceased laureate to retain Nobel Prize
The Nobel Foundation ruled on Monday evening that Ralph Steinman will retain his share of the 2011 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine even though he died before being named recipient of the award.

1. Awww, that made my day!
It would be wrong to deny the prize even tho the recipient died just before he could get it, because he did deserve it. A very lovely thing that they did!
