When Napoleone Ferrara was a medical student in Italy in the 1970s, he became interested in reproductive endocrinology. Although his training never specifically focused on angiogenesis, he is recognized today for shaping the field through the discovery of its core signaling molecule, VEGF, and for exploiting VEGF for the first successful clinical treatments of wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and cancer. On September 21, 2010, the Albert and Mary Lasker Foundation announced they will present Ferrara (Figure ​(Figure1)1) with the 2010 Lasker~DeBakey Clinical Medical Research Award for his work on VEGF, which led to an effective therapy for neovascular AMD. Ferrara spoke with the JCI about his journey from discovery to treatment.    Figure 1  Napoleone Ferrara, winner of the 2010 Lasker~DeBakey Clinical Award.
