Children with Leber congenital amaurosis experience early-onset blindness due to mutations in the RPE65 gene, which disrupts the retina’s ability to respond to light.

Scientists Jean Bennett (University of Pennsylvania), Katherine High (University of Pennsylvania, Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, and Rockefeller University), and Albert Maguire (University of Pennsylvania) developed a gene therapy that delivers a healthy copy of RPE65 directly to retinal cells. Tested in animals and humans, the therapy successfully restored vision, becoming the first FDA-approved gene replacement therapy for a genetic disease. Children who once faced darkness can now recognize faces, read signs, and navigate their world with confidence. For this transformative work, the three scientists are honored with the 2026 Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences.

By the 1970s, most fundamental forces—gravity, electromagnetism, and radioactive decay—were well understood. But the strong nuclear force, which holds atomic nuclei together and powers the sun, remained a mystery.

Then David Gross and his colleagues discovered asymptotic freedom, showing that the strong force weakens as particles approach one another but grows stronger as they move apart, confining them within the nucleus. This discovery led to quantum chromodynamics, completing the Standard Model of particle physics.

For his lifetime of pioneering contributions to, and leadership in, theoretical physics, David Gross (Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, and University of California, Santa Barbara) is awarded the 2026 Special Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics.
