    STOCKHOLM — British researcher John Gurdon and Shinya Yamanaka of Japan won this year's Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine on Monday for discovering that mature, specialized cells of the body can be reprogrammed into stem cells — a discovery that scientists hope to turn into new treatments. 
    Scientists want to harness that reprogramming to create replacement tissues for treating diseases like Parkinson's and diabetes, and for studying the roots of diseases in the laboratory.
