In 1939, he published findings in a case of haemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) that helped advance research into Rhesus blood types and the prevention of Rh disease. Levine was jointly awarded an Albert Lasker Award in 1946 for this work. He was elected a Fellow of the American College of Physicians in 1944, and elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 1966. Photographed in 1944.
