Fred Ramsdell was on ‘off-the-grid hiking trip’ when Nobel Prize news broke

Immunologist Fred Ramsdell, 64, discovered he'd won the Nobel Prize in Medicine while on a digital detox in the remote US backcountry. His wife, Laura O’Neill, regained cell service and found a flood of congratulatory messages. The couple had missed the Nobel Committee's call, with Ramsdell eventually contacting them nearly 20 hours later.
