Here is the shuttle driver's (Prasher) original publication:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1347277 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1347277
(which is the first GFP publication)
Here's a Science article 2 years later (with Prasher and one of the actual Nobel Prize winners - Chalfie):
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8303295 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8303295
And another in that same year with Prasher and a different prize winner (Tsien):

...crazy... why didn't Prasher get it too?
- timr 18y agoThis sort of thing is irritatingly common when it comes to major scientific prizes (the most infamous example being that of Rosalind Franklin, whose research was probably stolen by Watson and Crick). Frustrating as that kind of oversight may be, I think it's a far greater problem that a talented scientist is driving a shuttle bus to avoid unemployment. We clearly have a shortage of scientists in America -- let's train more!
