چکیده
Among biologists Alex Novikoff is known foremost for his contributions to the discovery and characterization of several cell organelles—lysosomes, peroxisomes, microperoxisomes and the Golgi body—as well as helping to pioneer the field of cell biology.

Novikoff's early associations with Marxism led to productive conceptual interpretations in biology, but also to him being targeted by political demagogues.
