Abstract
Medical & Biological Engineering & Computing (MBEC), is currently producing its 47th volume implying that soon after the IFMBE was founded, its journal was established. The first Editor-in-Chief was Alfred Nightingale who died too young in 1963 at the age of 40, just before the first issue was launched. A prize, named in his honor, called the Nightingale Prize for “the best scientific paper” published in MBEC was soon established by IPEM in association with the IFMBE.
