62. I PREMI NOBEL Translate this page Durante l’ultima guerra mondiale insieme con il biologo tedesco max delbruck studiandoi Ricevette il premio nobel con delbruck e Alfred D. Hershey il quale http://www.cosediscienza.it/varie/10_nobel.htm

I PREMI NOBEL NOBEL, UN UOMO SOLO “Gli interessi acquisiti ogni anno saranno distribuiti sotto forma di premi per ricompensare coloro che, nell’anno precedente, avranno apportato all’umanità il maggiore beneficio”. Con queste parole Alfred Nobel trasmetteva ai suoi concittadini il difficile compito di assegnare ogni anno i premi che portano il suo nome. Nel testamento, redatto un anno prima della morte avvenuta a Sanremo il 10 dicembre 1896, era specificato che dovevano venir premiate le persone che avevano fatto la scoperta più importante nel campo della fisica, della chimica, della medicina o fisiologia, della letteratura, con opere di tendenza idealistica, e quelle che “più di altre si erano prodigate o avevano realizzato il miglior lavoro ai fini della fraternità fra le nazioni”. Si precisava inoltre che le assegnazioni non dovevano tenere conto della nazionalità del candidato. Nel laboratorio di quella fabbrica il giovane Alfred, intorno agli anni ‘60, iniziò la sua attività di chimico volta a perfezionare la tecnica dell’esplosione con l’impiego di polveri sempre più potenti e un nuovo tipo di innesco per la nitroglicerina. La nitroglicerina, ottimo esplosivo di consistenza oleosa che fu scoperto nel 1846 da un giovane chimico italiano, Ascanio Sobrero, ha però un difetto che ne rende l’uso molto pericoloso: esplode al minimo urto e, a volte, senza una precisa causa; malgrado ciò presenta anche un’altra caratteristica di cui si accorse lo stesso Sobrero, che era anche medico, osservando gli arrossamenti delle mani e del collo degli operai che lavoravano alla sua preparazione: è un vasodilatatore e come tale ancora oggi, seppure con opportune modifiche nella composizione, viene usata per curare l’angina pectoris.

67. Science On Long Island In 1945 max delbruck started a bacterial virus course. CSH has had more thanits share of nobel prize winners and important research breakthroughs. http://docs.powertolearn.com/li_history/science.html

Science on Long Island Cold Spring Harbor Lab One of the earliest pictures of the Cold Spring Harbor Lab. Long Island has long been a center for science and technology. Among the most important centers for scientific research have been the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Brookhaven National Laboratory, the Okeanos Ocean Research Foundation and the governments agricultural research center on Plum Island. Long Island has many Nobel Prize winners in the area of science, the highest award for a scientist's work. Cold Spring Harbor The biological laboratory at Cold Spring Harbor (CSH) was founded in 1890. Throughout its long and distinguished history the lab has produced many important scientific breakthroughs and several of its scientists have won the Nobel Prize for their research. In 1908, George Shull developed the first hybrid corn in a field next to what is now the Carnegie Library at Cold Spring Harbor. Much cancer research has been done at Cold Spring Harbor laboratories. In 1928, E. Carlton McDowell discovered a type of mouse that consistently developed leukemia and much research was done at the lab about the genetic basis for cancer. In 1945 Max Delbruck started a bacterial virus course. This course trained the first generations of molecular biologists and was important in understanding the genetic code. One of the greatest experiments came in 1952 when Alfred Hershey and March Chase did their famous "blender experiment." This showed that DNA was the molecule of heredity.

Portada Dossier Búsqueda Agenda ... Suscripciones Soraya de Chadarevian: la construcción de un icono del siglo XX Francesc Xavier Calvó i Monreal Biomedia (Barcelona). El pasado 1 de abril tuvo lugar, en la sala President Lluís Companys del Ayuntamiento de Barcelona, la conferencia de la destacada profesora británica Soraya de Chadarevian sobre el cincuenta aniversario de la publicación de la estructura en doble hélice del DNA en la revista Nature . El artículo en cuestión, de James Watson y Francis Crick, describió por primera vez la estructura de la molécula del ácido desoxirribonucleico (DNA). Partiendo del hecho que la estructura de la doble hélice ha alcanzado una enorme popularidad incluso en terrenos ajenos a la ciencia, Soraya de Chadarevian, del Departamento de Historia y Filosofía de la Ciencia de la Universidad de Cambridge , Reino Unido, propone una recontextualiazción de esta cuestión. En primer lugar plantea situar el modelo en su contexto histórico, es decir teniendo en cuenta que hubo un antes y un después de la publicación. El DNA como material genético no surge con Watson y Crick. Su existencia es conocida desde el siglo XIX, si bien su consideración como material genético no se dará hasta el conocido experimento de Hersey y Chase. Otra de las razones para su relativamente tardío reconocimiento como portador de la herencia se debe a su composición «aburrida», en palabras de Max Delbruck, frente a la composición de las proteínas, mucho más variadas y sugerentes en este sentido. Es preciso recordar que disponemos de un mínimo de veinte aminoácidos para formar las proteínas y sólo disponemos de cuatro nucleótidos para la formación de los ácidos nucleicos. Este hecho, junto con el surgimiento del lenguaje de la información, llevarán al planteamiento del código genético y su solución, todo ello con posterioridad a los artículos de Watson y Crick.

Protein or DNA 20 different amino acids only 4 different nucleotides found in eukaryotic chromosomes found in eukaryotic chromosomes highly variable structures and functions variability limited II. The Nineteenth Century Darwin publishes The Origin of Species Gregor Mendel 1869: DNA isolated for the first time III. The Twentieth Century Walter Sutton Thomas Hunt Morgan identifies a mutant white eyed male fruit fly...a discovery which leads him to the chromosomal theory of inheritance and sex linkage.

How nucleotides go together to form DNA is unknown Frederick Griffith demonstrates transformation in pneumococcus bacteria (see attached sheet) working with mutants of Neurospora crassa Max Delbruck and Salvador Luria Bacteriophage (aka Phage) are viruses that infect bacterial cells. Phage inject their genetic material into the host bacterial cell. Host cell uses its machinery to copy the viral genetic material and assemble new virus particles (virions) which then emerge from the bacterial cell, often destroying (lysing) it in the process. Virions then spread to other cells and repeat the process.

DILL REPRESENTING THE JOINT STEERING COMMITTEE FOR PUBLIC POLICY BEFORE THE HOUSE APPROPRIATIONS SUBCOMMITTEE ON LABOR, HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, AND RELATED AGENCIES APRIL 5, 2000 My name is Ken Dill. I am a Professor at the UC San Francisco Medical Center. I represent the Joint Steering Committee for Public Policy, an organization of 20,000 biomedical research scientists. As a taxpayer who cares about my family's health, I am grateful for your support of biomedical research, particularly your back-to-back 15 percent increases to the NIH. This is an incredible moment in scientific history. In 100 years, I believe we'll see the biomedical science revolution of today as overshadowing even the industrial revolution in its importance to our daily lives. My first message is to urge you to continue the effort to double the NIH budget over 5 years. My second message is that NIH should invest new resources in the underpinning basic sciences: physics, chemistry, math, and computer science. The deepest mysteries of biology still lie ahead of us. The revolution has barely begun. We need new technologies and principles that aren't even known yet. Biomedical research without enough underpinning science is like a freight train without a track. Biomedicine owes much to the basic sciences. Physicists and chemists like Max Delbruck, Linus Pauling, and Francis Crick were among the founders of molecular and structural biology. The underpinning sciences gave us Magnetic Resonance Imaging, CAT scans, laser eye surgery, and new biomaterials.
