Extractions: Harvard Medical School professors David H. Hubel and Torsten N. Wiesel, who won the Nobel Prize for medicine today, have worked together since 1959 to find out how the brain sees. They share the award, the first to be announced in this year's Nobel series, with Dr. Robert Sperry of California Institute of Technology, a Harvard alumnus and a native of Hartford. Wiesel, a former member of the Nobel awards committee, and Hubel both won the award for discoveries concerning "information processing in the visual system." Wiesel said today he would like to think that the research has helped doctors understand the importance of early treatment for children with visual problems. Wiesel was concerned about the publicity that will come with the prize. "Maybe I should go and hide," he said. Dr. Sperry received half the prize, worth $180,000 this year, for discoveries about "the functional specialization of the cerebral hemispheres." Sperry has "brilliantly succeeded in extracting the secrets from both hemispheres of the brain," the awards committee said, "and in demonstrating that they are highly specialized, and also that many higher functions are centered in the right hemisphere."
