The other half of the 2008 prize was split between [[Luc Montagnier]] and [[Françoise Barré-Sinoussi]] "for their discovery of human immunodeficiency virus". The omission of [[Robert Gallo]] was controversial: 106 scientists signed a letter to the journal "[[Science (journal)|Science]]" stating that 'While these awardees fully deserve the award, it is equally important to recognize the contributions of Robert C. Gallo', which 'warrant equal recognition'. Montagnier said that he was 'surprised' that the award had not been shared with Gallo.
