Ivan Vladimirovich Michurin (1855 – 1935), was a Russian practitioner of selection, Honorable Member of the Soviet Academy of Sciences, and academician of the Lenin All-Union Academy of Agriculture who made a major contribution in the development of genetics, especially in the field of pomology (a branch of botany that studies and cultivates fruit).

Thomas Hunt Morgan (1866 –1945) was an American evolutionary biologist, geneticist and embryologist. Following the rediscovery of Mendelian inheritance in 1900, Morgan's research moved to the study of mutations in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. He demonstrated that genes are carried on chromosomes and are the mechanical basis of heredity. These discoveries formed the basis of the modern science of genetics and earned him the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine in 1933.

The Comoro Island issued in 1977 the following stamp depicting several Noble Prize winners in physiology and medicine including Thomas Hunt Morgan (second from the left). In the front, Drosophila fruit flies and a pair of Drosophila chromosomes:

Severo Ochoa de Albornoz (1905 – 1993) was a Spanish physician and biochemist, and joint winner of the 1959 Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine with Arthur Kornberg for their discovery of mechanisms in the biological synthesis of RNA and DNA. The stamp depicting Ochoa and a DNA double helix. Designed by Hannu Järviö and engraved by Czeslaw Slania and issued by Sweden in 2003:

This stamp was issued as se-tenant with other stamp shows Santiago Ramon y Cajal (1852 – 1934), a Spanish pathologist, histologist, neuroscientist, and a winner of the 1906 Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine. Stamp were jointly issued with Spain:

Structure of DNA double-helix, SS issued to publicize the human genome project, an international research effort to determine the DNA sequence of the entire human genome, and of identifying and mapping all of the genes of the human genome from both a physical and a functional standpoint. The project launched in 1990, and was declared complete in 2003 - SS issued by Ghana on April 16, 2001:
