| | | Author: | Bergmann, M., (Max), 1886-1944 | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | Max Bergmann papers, [ca. 1930]-1945
| | | | Dates: | 1930-1945 | | | | Abstract: | Max Bergmann, formerly director of the Kaiser-Wilhelm Institute for Leather Research, joined the Rockefeller Institute in 1933; he was one of many German scientists of the intellectual migration. A protege of Emil Fischer, Bergmann had developed in Germany a leading center for protein chemistry, attracting students from around the world. His successful career continued in his new homeland, which he considered "the best country on the globe" (Letter to Felix Haurowitz, 8 July 1943). His research program, which focused on the action of proteolytic enzymes on synthetic peptides and on the problem of protein structure, aimed at explaining the biological specificity of proteins. As determinants of specificity, proteins were then generally regarded as the active hereditary material in the chromosomes; Bergmann's investigations were also intended to account for this genetic specificity. The Bergmann Papers -- letters, reports, addresses, and lectures -- are therefore important not only for the history of biochemistry, but also for the history of molecular genetics.

Bowditch in 1906 as head of the Laboratory of Experimental Physiology at Harvard Medical School (the first laboratory of experimental physiology in America), he was already recognized as a leader in the field. A champion of scientific medicine and experimental biology, Cannon's neurophysiological studies on the regulation of the sympathetic nervous system, and his work on endocrine function, often entailed vivisection of animals (mainly cats). This of course was a motivating factor in his active participation in the effort against the anti-vivisection campaign.

| | Author: | Chargaff, Erwin | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | Erwin Chargaff Papers
| | | | Dates: | 1929-1992 | | | | Abstract: | Erwin Chargaff was the first biochemist in America to develop a substantial research program centered around the genetic specificity of nucleic acids, research that formed a major chapter in the history of molecular biology. Having been one of a handful of life scientists in the mid-1940s to appreciate the significance of O. T. Avery's discovery that DNA was the transforming principle in pneumococci, Chargaff set out to probe the chemical properties of nucleic acids in relation to their biological specificity. By 1950 his finding that DNA could account for genetic specificity led to the demise of P. A. Levene's dominant tetranucleotide theory of DNA structure, which regarded DNA as ill-suited for carrying information. Chargaff's findings also eclipsed some of Max Bergmann's protein theories of biological specificity. Chargaff's work was a turning point in gene research from proteins to nucleic acids, and his laboratory at Columbia (in the biochemistry department headed by Hans Thacher Clarke) became a premier center for nucleic acids chemistry.

| | | | Dates: | 1936 | | | | Abstract: | Russell Henry Chittenden is generally regarded as the father of American biochemistry, having led at Yale the country's first biochemistry department (circa 1870s-1920s). A protege of the German biochemist Willy Kuhne, Chittenden continued his mentor's research program on the action of proteolytic enzymes, at the same time adapting the work at the New Haven laboratory to local and national needs. Chittenden's research program, tied to the region's agricultural chemistry and nutrition, was noted for work on toxicology and on protein requirements in humans. During World War I, Chittenden was a member of a committee in charge of nutrition and food supply to the Allies. His strongest impact was in professional and administrative activities, especially as the president of the American Physiological Society, as member of editorial boards of journals such as the American Journal of Physiology, the Journal of Experimental Medicine, and the Journal of Biological Chemistry, and as a prolific writer. Chittenden's autobiographical account documents his contributions within a broader context of the rise of biochemistry in America.

The Clark Papers contain material relating to his lectures and papers, twenty-four notebooks (1941-1953), ten files on his associate Barnett Cohen (1910s-1950s) that include extensive data on dyes, and two photograph files containing pictures of his laboratory, the "Temple of pH." There are also four student notebooks (physical chemistry, optics, thermodynamics/physics), which together with the correspondence, form a rich record on laboratory practice and training in physical biochemistry.

| | | | Dates: | 1947-1980 | | | | Abstract: | The career of Mildred Cohn developed during a time when the Rockefeller Foundation was funneling millions of dollars into physico-chemical biology, with a primary interest in the laboratories where Cohn conducted her researches. Mildred Cohn received her doctorate in physical chemistry from Columbia University in 1938, completing her graduate work under Harold C. Urey on the biological uses of stable isotopes. She continued her research at Cornell under Vincent Du Vigneaud, where she established an isotope laboratory for investigations of various metabolic processes. From 1946 to 1960 Cohn worked in the laboratory of Carl and Gerty Cori (Nobel laureates in 1947 for studies of glycogen metabolism) at Washington University, continuing her studies of enzymatic mechanisms with the use of isotopes. In 1953 she began working with the new technique of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), which remained her active research area at the Johnson Foundation and Department of Biophysics at the University of Pennsylvania.

| | | | Dates: | 1958-1965 | | | | Abstract: | The history of the Cold Spring Harbor laboratories began in 1904 with the Station for Experimental Evolution (later renamed Department of Genetics), sponsored by the Carnegie Institution of Washington. In 1924, the Long Island Biological Association established a summer research institute on the Station's grounds that soon emphasized physico-chemical biology. The Cold Spring Harbor summer symposia in quantitative biology, which began in 1933, became intellectual markers in physiology, biochemistry, and biophysics. In the early 1940s, under the energetic directorship of Milislav Demerec, the Department of Genetics and the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratories were consolidated, becoming by the late 1940s an international center of molecular genetics. Due in part to the catalytic growth of the symposia and research activities, the 1950s were a time of reorganization, to equip the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratories better for its leadership role in the life sciences.

| | | | Dates: | 1955-1974 | | | | Abstract: | Alexander Hollaender was educated at the University of Wisconsin, receiving his doctorate in physical chemistry in 1931. These were exciting times to be at Wisconsin, surrounded by scientists like Max Mason, Warren Weaver, John Warren Williams, and Theodor Svedberg, men who in the early 1930s would spearhead the merger of physics, chemistry, and biology under the aegis of the Rockefeller Foundation. Hollaender became an active participant in these intellectual and institutional endeavors. He remained associated with Wisconsin until 1937, working on problems of radiation genetics and chemical mutagenesis (he was one of the first researchers to point out the significance of nucleic acids in mutagenesis). He was also an adviser to the Rockefeller Foundation on the development of molecular biology, and was involved in administering Rockefeller Fellowships and projects of the National Research Council.

| | | | Dates: | 1913-1964 | | | | Abstract: | Between the 1910s and 1930s, Warren Harmon Lewis (together with his wife and colleague Margaret Lewis) developed methods of tissue culture and means of observation which revolutionized the field of cytology. While still at the Anatomical Laboratory at Johns Hopkins (1903-1919), the Lewises prepared a simple fluid which enabled them to grow cells in culture dishes and thus observe previously hidden details of cell structure and physiological activities. They continued their cytological studies at the Embryology Department of the Carnegie Institution (located in Baltimore) until their move to the Wistar Institute in Philadelphia after 1940.

| | | | Dates: | 1923-1952 | | | | Abstract: | When Karl Landsteiner left Vienna in 1922 at the age of fifty-four to join the Rockefeller Institute, he had already done much of his most important work. In the early years of the century he had discovered a simple technique of agglutination, whereby human blood was divided into four groups, a discovery that made possible safe blood transfusions. This work, in turn, led him to the study of hereditary differences in antigens of blood groups, and thus to the birth of serological genetics. A succession of discoveries followed in the 1920s and 1930s, after he had moved to the Rockefeller Institute: the discovery of blood factors (M, N, P, and Rh factors), and investigations on the chemical specificity of serological reactions, which became a basis of immunochemistry.
