History of Nobel Prize Nomination


Dear Dr. Nowicky,

As I looked at your homepage over the last few days I realised that the difficulties made for you by various parties that are described in the book "Krebsmittel Ukrain, Kriminalgeschichte einer Verhinderung" ("Cancer Drug Ukrain, a Crime Story of Hindrance") are continuing.

I find it more than merely shocking that, due to legal action by a company named Germania, you have to pay fines instead of gaining the recognition you deserve.

As a scientist I have occupied myself with the preparation Ukrain for many years. In 2004 I was asked by the Nobel Prize Committee to put forwards names of important scientists in the field of chemistry. In submitting the documentation in which I proposed you for the Nobel Prize for Chemistry there were many incongruities. I sent in the documentation several times but it never arrived at the Nobel Prize Committee. When the Committee was asked about this by phone, they told that in the hundred-year history of the Nobel Prize, documentation has never before disappeared. As a result, instead of you, two biologists from Israel, Aaron Ciechanover and Avram Hershko and Irwin Rose - a biologist from the USA - were awarded the Nobel Prize.

I ask you to publish the documentation sent to you on your homepage.
