Doherty
P. C. Doherty and R. M. Zinkernagel discovered in 1974 that T cells will
only generate a response to viral antigen when it is presented on the surface
of cells in association with self MHC antigen. [ZD74]
This research culminated in the award of the Nobel prize in physiology and medicine in
1996.
