Noted University of Wisconsin-Madison researcher Henry Lardy dies at 92

Until just a few months ago, Henry Lardy could still be found almost every day in his biochemistry lab on the UW-Madison campus, where for more than 60 years he sought solutions to vexing problems from AIDS to sudden infant death syndrome.

His work led to widespread acclaim ? membership in the National Academy of Sciences, winner of the prestigious Wolf Foundation Award in Agriculture ? and a long record of scientific insights.
