Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin British crystallographer Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin was known for her advancements in the field of x-ray crystallography and biomolecular structure. Hodgkin accomplished structure determinations on many compounds of medical importance, including penicillin, insulin, and vitamin B12, through the use of x-ray diffraction analysis. She also introduced computers into the processing of diffraction patterns(Dickneider). Hodgkin was finally rewarded for her efforts as the sole Nobel Laureate in 1964(Hunter). Her love for chemistry all began as a child growing up in England. Dorothy Mary Crowfoot was born in Cairo, Egypt on May 12, 1910(Dickneider). She was born to English parents. Her father, John Winter Crowfoot was an inspector for the Ministry of Education. He was a distinguished classical scholar and archaeologist. Her mother, Grace Mary Hood Crowfoot, was an excellent botanist. She was also an expert on ancient textiles(Hunter). Dorothy was one of four daughters. Her early years were spent in Norfolk, England where she attended the Sir John Leman School in Beccles, Suffolk(Dickneider). At age ten, she was introduced to elementary chemistry. It was here that she grew her first crystals and began learning crystallography. From the beginning she was intrigued by “the elegance and beauty of their geometric shapes, with plane faces meeting at characteristic angles, and the orderly symmetry of their structures”(Hunter). During the spring after her thesis, while in London to photograph insulin at the Royal Institution, she met Thomas L. Hodgkin. Hodgkin, a historian, was educated at Winchester and Oxford. He came from a remarkable family that includes Dr. Thomas Hodgkin, who first described the neoplastic condition known today as Hodgkin’s disease. Thomas and Dorothy were married in December of 1937. They had three children: Luke, born in 1938, Elizabeth, born in 1941, and Toby born in 1946(Hunter).

He was born in Adelaide, where his father was Professor of Mathematics and Physics at the University of Adelaide . He later studied at the same university where he graduated with a first-class honours degree in mathematics at the age of 19. (The physics tradition at the University of Adelaide was later to be continued by Sir Marcus Oliphant and Paul Davies The years around 1915 were exciting ones in physics. It was all happening. In 1912, Max von Laue had performed ground-breaking work on the diffraction of X- rays by crystals. Soon afterwards, Lawrence decided that X-rays had a dual wave/particle nature - one of the most significant concepts in 20th century physics. In 1915, Lawrence Bragg and his father, Sir William Henry Bragg, were awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics . In 1916, Albert Einstein published his

Australian Nobel Prize Winners The Voice of Australians ~ Caring About Our Country The awarding ceremony for the Nobel Prize winners takes place each year on the 10th of December, the anniversary of Alfred Nobel's death. Alfred Nobel was a the Swedish-born inventor and international industrialist. The festival day of the Nobel Foundation takes place at the Stockholm Concert Hall (Stockholms Konserthus) in Sweden. His Majesty the King of Sweden, hands each Nobel Laureate a diploma, a medal and a document confirming the Prize amount. The Monetary Prize In 1997 the amount awarded totalled SEK 7.5 million (about 1 million in US dollars) per full Prize. The amount varies because it comes from the interest earned from the fund created from the estate of Alfred Nobel. The Banquet After the Ceremony, Nobel Laureates and their families are honoured at the Nobel Banquet at the Stockholm City Hall (Stockholms Stadshus). Approximately 1,300 people attend the Banquet. Their Majesties the King and Queen and other members of the Royal Family of Sweden are guests of honour at both the Ceremony and the Nobel Banquet. The Nobel Prize is considered the most prestigious prize in the world and receives worldwide coverage by the print media, radio and television.

William Lawrence Bragg William Lawrence Bragg, son of William Henry Bragg, was born in Adelaide, South Australia, on March 31, 1890 He was educated at St. Peter's College in his birthplace, moving on to Adelaide University to take his degree in mathematics with first-class honours in 1908. He came to England with his father in 1909 and attended Trinity College, Cambridge, as an Allen Scholar, taking first-class honours in the Natural Science Tripos in 1912. In the autumn of that year he started on the Max von Laue phenomenon and published his first paper on the subject in November From 1912 to 1914 he had been working with his father, and the results of their work were published in X-rays and Crystal Structure (1915). It was this work which earned them jointly the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1915. He was appointed Langworthy Professor of Physics at Manchester University in 1919. Having been awarded the Nobel Prize at the very early age of 25, W. Lawrence Bragg was the youngest-ever laureate. The very rare opportunity of celebrating a golden jubilee as a Nobel Laureate was given special attention during the December ceremonies at Stockholm in 1965, when Sir Lawrence, at the invitation of the Nobel Foundation, delivered a lecture - the first Nobel Guest Lecture - on developments in his field of interest during the last fifty years. William Lawrence Bragg died in 1971.

William Lawrence Bragg William Lawrence Bragg was born in Adelaide, Australia, on 31st March 1890. He was an impressionable boy and showed an early interest in science. Bragg was a very able student, and from the age of 11 studied at St Peter's College. He was in a class of older boys who saw him as 'an amusing freak', but did not tease or bully him. In 1904, aged 15, Bragg entered Adelaide University to read mathematics, chemistry and physics. He graduated in 1908, aged 18. In 1908 Bragg's father accepted the Chair of Physics at Leeds University, and took the family back to England on the Waratah , a ship that sank on her next voyage! Bragg entered Trinity College, Cambridge in the autumn of 1909. He received a major scholarship in mathematics, despite taking the exam while in bed with pneumonia. After gaining first class honours in Part I mathematics, Bragg transferred to the Part II Physics course, and graduated with first class honours in 1911. Bragg is most famous for his law on the diffraction of X-rays by crystals, a 'theory which makes it possible to calculate the positions of [the X-ray beams] for all dispositions of crystal and photographic plates'. He made this discovery in 1912, during his first year as a research student in Cambridge. To make the discovery Bragg drew together results published by Laue in Germany and concepts from lectures by J.J. Thomson and C.T.R. Wilson. He presented his theory to the Cambridge Philosophical Society on 11th November 1912.

Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin presents prizes to children. Among the X-ray crystallographers inspired by William Henry Bragg and William Lawrence Bragg was Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin (1910–1994), the third woman ever to win the Nobel Prize in chemistry, which she received in 1964. Dorothy Crowfoot was born in Cairo, Egypt, to English parents. Although her formal schooling took place in England, she spent a significant part of her youth in the Middle East and North Africa, where her father was a school inspector. Both her parents were authorities in archaeology, and she almost followed the family vocation, but from childhood she was fascinated by minerals and crystals. She enjoyed using a portable mineral analysis kit given to her when she became interested in analyzing pebbles she and her sister found in the stream that ran through the Crowfoot's garden in Khartoum, Sudan. When she was fifteen, her mother gave her Sir William Henry Bragg's Concerning the Nature of Things (1925), which contained intriguing discussions of how scientists could use X-rays to "see" atoms and molecules.

by Thomas G. West KRASNOW INSTITUTE Author of In the Mind's Eye (opens in a new window) Editor's Note : An alternative version of this article was published in different form in the February 2001 issue of ACM-SIGGRAPH Computer Graphics. Recognition in the Old Tradition " 'I didn't expect ' a Nobel Prize 'at all,' he said, 'in part because of the nature of the work. There was less science [and more engineering] in it than the things customarily honored by the prizes." This is the observation of Jack S. Kilby (Texas Instruments) co-inventor of the integrated circuit, on being notified of his award in October 2000. The Nobel Prize for chemistry awarded at the same time to Alan J. Heeger (UC-Santa Barbara) and Hideki Shirakawa (University of Tsukuba) for their work on conductive polymers also reflected the recognition of broad effects rather than pure science. " 'We're very excited,' said Daryle H. Busch of the American Chemical Society, 'because this award is in the old tradition. That is, it was given for work that has a very substantial impact on society.' " (Suplee) The shift back to an earlier tradition by the Nobel prize committee may reflect a growing recognition in the larger world of the deep value of applied work of broad impact as opposed to the highly theoretical work of relatively low impact which has commanded such high prestige in recent decades.
