Q. When did Frederick Sanger receive the Nobel Prize in chemistry?
In 1958, Frederick Sanger was awarded a Nobel Prize in Chemistry "for his work on the structure of proteins, especially that of insulin". In 1980, Walter Gilbert and Sanger shared half of the chemistry prize "for their contributions concerning the determination of base sequences in nucleic acids".
Q. What was Frederick Sanger famous for?
Frederick Sanger was an English biochemist and molecular biologist who twice received the Nobel Prize for Chemistry; in 1958 for his discovery of the structure of the insulin molecule, and in 1980 for his collaborative work on base sequences in nucleic acids with Paul Berg and Walter Gilbert.

Federick Sanger

- Frederick Sanger OM CH CBE FRS (13 August 1918 – 19 November 2013) was an English biochemist.
- Sanger is a two-time Nobel laureate in chemistry, the only person to have been so. Sanger is the fourth person to have been given two Nobel Prizes, either individually or in tandem with others.
- In 1958 he was given a Nobel prize in chemistry "for his work on the structure of proteins, especially that of insulin".
- In 1980, Walter Gilbert and Sanger shared half of the chemistry prize "for their contributions concerning the determination of base sequences in nucleic acids". The other half was given to Paul Berg "for his fundamental studies of the biochemistry of nucleic acids, with particular regard to recombinant-DNA".
Federick Sanger twice won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, one of only two people to have done so in the same category (the other is John Bardeen in physics), the fourth person overall with two Nobel Prizes, and the third person overall with two Nobel Prizes in the sciences.
