This doctor’s bag was used by Harvey Alter during his last year of training to become a doctor. He studied at the University of Rochester and did his final internship at Strong Memorial Hospital in the early 1960s. Alter later did groundbreaking research in virology and discovered the previously unknown hepatitis C virus.
Harvey Alter donated the doctor’s bag to the Nobel Prize Museum in 2023.
