Summary
Invitations are sent out to some two 3,000 academic scholars to nominate a worthy candidate for the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. The email evoked fond memories, and I would not have hesitated to nominate once again Professor Per‐Ingvar Brånemark for his role in the discovery of the biological process that we today call osseointegration. It is hard to imagine that anyone can discount that the contributions from the research team directed by Professor Per‐Ingvar Brånemark has benefitted humankind.
