Description: (American-German biochemist)
Fritz Albert Lipmann was a renowned biochemist recognized for his pioneering research on coenzyme A. His co-discovery of coenzyme A in 1945 greatly advanced the understanding of cellular metabolism. This breakthrough, along with his subsequent studies on coenzyme A, led to him being awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1953, which he shared with Hans Adolf Krebs. Lipmann's work revolutionized the field of biochemistry and his contributions remain influential in scientific research on cellular processes and energy production.
