Oral history interview with Victor Nussenzweig, MD
Dr. Victor Nussenzweig has led the Michael Heidelberger Division of the Department of Pathology at NYU since 1987 and is the Hermann M. Biggs Professor of Preventive Medicine. He co-discovered the circumsporozite, or CSP protein with his wife, Ruth Nussenzweig. This discovery led to the identification of the CSP gene. Both the CSP protein and CSP gene are the basis for malaria vaccine efforts.
