Alongside [[salvador-luria|Salvador Luria]] and [[alfred-hershey|Alfred Hershey]], he formed the Phage Group, which made significant discoveries about genetics and viruses, earning them the 1969 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. Delbruck's work also led to the prediction of what is now known as Delbrück scattering, a phenomenon in physics. His contributions paved the way for future scientists, including [[james-watson|James Watson]] and [[francis-crick|Francis Crick]], who built upon his research to understand the structure of DNA.
