2003 Nobel Prizes

The 2003 Nobel Prizes were awarded by the Nobel Foundation, based in Sweden. Six categories were awarded: Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, Literature, Peace, and Economic Sciences.

Nobel Week took place from December 6 to 12, including programming such as lectures, dialogues, and discussions. The award ceremony and banquet for the Peace Prize were scheduled in Oslo on December 10, while the award ceremony and banquet for all other categories were scheduled for the same day in Stockholm.

Lauterbur and Mansfield's awarding for magnetic resonance imaging development was criticized due to the Nobel Foundation's lack of acknowledgement for Raymond Damadian, a scientist who similarly contributed to the invention of the technology in the seventies alongside Lauterbur and Mansfield.
