Media Relations VZVRF Scientific Achievement Award The VZVRF Scientific Award was established to honor scientists who have made significant contributions to the study of the varicella-zoster virus (VZV). Recipients of the award to date are: 1999: R. Edgar Hope-Simpson, OBE, FRCP , a British general practitioner who refined the theory that shingles is caused by a reactivation of dormant varicella virus, and hypothesized that the increased incidence and severity of shingles in older people is the result of declining VZV immunity. 1997: Michiaki Takahashi, M.D., D.M.Sc. , professor emeritus at Osaka University, who developed the chickenpox vaccine. 1995: Gertrude B. Elion, D.Sc. , scientist emeritus at Glaxo Wellcome Inc. and a 1988 Nobel Laureate, whose research led to the creation of the first antiviral therapy for shingles. 1993: Thomas H. Weller, M.D. , professor emeritus at Harvard School of Public Health and a 1954 Nobel Laureate, who first isolated the varicella-zoster virus.

43. Elion, Gertrude B. elion, gertrude B. (19181999). I was born in New the new generationsof scientists. From Les Prix nobel 1988. Dr elion died in 1999. http://www.cartage.org.lb/en/themes/Biographies/MainBiographies/E/Elion/Elion.ht

Elion, Gertrude B. I was born in New York City on a cold January night when the water pipes in our apartment froze and burst. Fortunately, my mother was in the hospital rather than at home at the time. My father emigrated from Lithuania to the United States at the age of 12. He received his higher education in New York City and graduated in 1914 from the New York University School of Dentistry. My mother came at the age of 14 from a part of Russia which, after the war, became Poland; she was only 19 when she was married to my father. My first seven years were spent in a large apartment in Manhattan where my father had his dental office, with our living quarters adjoining it. My brother was born about six years after I was, and shortly thereafter we moved to the Bronx, which was then considered a suburb of New York City. There were still many open lots where children could play and large parks, including the Bronx Zoo, to which I was very much devoted. My brother and I had a happy childhood. We went to a public school within walking distance of our house. Our classrooms were generally quite crowded, but we received a good basic education. I was a child with an insatiable thirst for knowledge and remember enjoying all of my courses almost equally. When it came time at the end of my high school career to choose a major in which to specialize I was in a quandary. One of the deciding factors may have been that my grandfather, whom I loved dearly, died of cancer when I was 15. I was highly motivated to do something that might eventually lead to a cure for this terrible disease. When I entered Hunter College in 1933, I decided to major in science and, in particular, chemistry.

Elion QUOTE I THINKTHEREFORE I'M SINGLE LIZZ WINSTEAD March 12,2001 Gertrude B. Elion Gertrude B. Elion, Trudy to most, was a biochemist that became a unique figure in drug research. Her research revolutionized both drug-making and medicine. Elion spent years teaching schools, taking secretarial courses and working in marginal laboratory jobs before she could get a job in chemical research. For years she was the only woman in a top post in a major pharmaceutical corp. Elion's accomplishments include making organ transplants possible, transforming the 0% survival rate for childhood for leukemia to 80% survival rate, and she laid the foundation for the AZT drug used to treat AIDS patients. In 1988, Mrs. Elion won the Nobel Peace Prize in science. She is one of only 9 women to have won a Nobel Peace Prize. ~THANK YOU MRS. ELION~

February 23, 1999 Gertrude Elion, Drug Developer, Dies at 81 By LAWRENCE K. ALTMAN ertrude B. Elion, a pioneer in drug research who shared a Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1988, died on Sunday in Chapel Hill, N.C., where she lived. She was 81. Ms. Elion developed drugs for use in a vast array of conditions. They included drugs for herpes, leukemia, malaria, gout, immune disorders, and AIDS, and immune suppressants to overcome rejection of donated organs in transplant surgery. In perfecting one compound after another, Ms. Elion worked for four decades with Dr. George H. Hitchings, who died a year ago. Ms. Elion broke down gender barriers in the male-dominated world of scientific research, becoming one of the rare women to win a Nobel Prize and, even rarer, a scientist who did not have a doctorate. Ms. Elion shared the Prize with Hitchings, who hired her as a $50-a-week assistant in 1944. Also sharing the Prize was Sir James Black of Britain, who discovered two classes of drugs, beta blockers, for high blood pressure and heart disease, and H-2 antagonists, for ulcers. Seldom does the Nobel committee in Stockholm honor employees of pharmaceutical companies, but all three that year worked or had worked for such a company. Ms. Elion and Hitchings throughout their careers collaborated at the company known today as Glaxo Wellcome. In awarding the Prize to the three scientists, the Nobel committee said their work "had a more fundamental significance than their discovery of individual drugs."

My daughter Tiffany was stricken with herpes encephalitis in September, 1987. A neurologist said the only hope for her was possibly the drug acyclovir. I have thanked the Lord so many times that he blessed you with the determination, stamina, love, and patience to work all of the long hours, days, months, and years it takes to invent a new drag. Tiffany is a senior in high school this year and doing great. May the Lord bless you beyond your wildest dreams.

HUMANMETRICS Risk Attitudes Profiler RISK PROFILES OF FAMOUS PERSONALITIES Take the test RAP demo Test description ... Home The risk attitudes profiler defines the expression of, and relationships between, mutually opposite psychological qualities: on the one hand, aspiration for emotional order, peace and safety and on the other hand, aspiration for risky behavior. Relative expression of these aspirations (motivations) determines the character of a person and the style of their behavior in life. Values of the Total index over 60% are typical for people who tend to engage in very risky behavior. Values between 10% and 60% correspond to normal attitude to risk. Values of the Total index below 10% usually mean that the person has increased aspiration for safety and stability. Political Leaders B.Clinton T.Blaire V.Putin B.Yeltsin ...
