STOCKHOLM, Oct. 3 (Xinhua) -- Two Australian researchers, Barry J. Marshall and J. Robin Warren, won the 2005 Nobel Prize for Medicine on Monday, the Nobel jury said.
The two were awarded the prize for discovering a bacterium that causes gastritis and stomach ulcers, said the Nobel Assembly of Stockholm's Karolinska Institute.
They made the "remarkable and unexpected discovery that inflammation in the stomach as well as ulceration of the stomach...is the result of an infection of the stomach caused by the bacterium Helicobacter pylori," it said.
