Professor Patrick Walsh was awarded the prize for his pioneering role in the development of radical prostatectomy without compromising the nerves responsible for sexual ability and controlling urination in males, which contributed to reducing the death rate resulting from the spread of disease or heavy bleeding. He conducted innovative research on the genetics of prostate tumors and ways to diagnose them at an early stage.
