What did Koch win in 1905?

• A. Nobel prize in Physiology or Medicine
• B. Nobel prize
• C. Fields Medal
• D. Copley Medal

Answer: (B)

Robert Koch was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1905 for his investigations into tuberculosis. The Nobel Prize is the highest international recognition for major advances in science and medicine, and in that year Koch’s work identifying the tuberculosis cause and developing bacteriological methods earned him the prize. Among the options, saying he won the Nobel Prize best captures the award itself, since the other choices point to different prizes (or are more specific categories) that don’t match the award Koch received in 1905.
