Popis: | BACKGROUND The Alfred Vogt-Prize is the highest award in Switzerland for scientific research in ophthalmology and related fields of research. The Alfred Vogt institution was founded 60 years ago in Zurich, where Alfred Vogt was working as the head of the department of Ophthalmology of the University Hospital. For this reason the activity of the foundation was recognized on the occasion of the annual meeting of the Swiss Ophthalmology Society in Zurich 1998. METHOD AND RESULTS The biographical notes of Alfred Vogt were compiled. The winners of the prize and their distinguished papers are listed below. During the 60 years since the establishment of the foundation the prize was rewarded to 53 researchers or research teams.
