Got the shaft

Stochastic, the SEED Magazine blog asks who in your field has gotten the shaft, or not received the recognition they deserve?

My vote goes out to Viktor Hamburger, for his work on programmed cell death of spinal motoneurons in developing chick embryos. He was was not granted a share of the Nobel Price with Rita Levi-Montalcini and others.
