My mother also ran away from home at 17 in 1935 to marry my father who was 39. I was born September 14, 1936 at home in their hot and small apartment over a bakery in Whiting, Indiana. My brothers John Abderhaman and Turhon Allen were born in 1938 and 1944. We were raised in a four room aparttment behind my parents' restaurant in Whiting, Indiana. This small apartment undoubtedly influenced my desire for large expensive homes. With this background I knew that I wanted considerable education so I wouldn't have to work as hard as my parents. Also, I knew at the age of 12 that I was going to become a doctor. My parents always encouraged us to get an education and establish a profession. However, my brothers and I grew up with considerable freedom whether it was saving or spending our tips from the restaurant or our career choices. This was also applied to our religious choices as my father was Muslim, my mother Baptist and we were raised in a Catholic community. Subsequently, my brothers became Catholic when they married Catholic wives and I was baptized Episcopalian in college. My wife of more than forty years is Presbyterian, two of our daughters married Jewish men and one married a Catholic man. There was one notable friend since kindergarten, Ronald Delismon, who influenced me considerably. We competed constantly with everything: grades, chess, fencing, sports, etc. Today he is an aeronautical engineer recently retired from Boeing. His projects were always top secret such as the stealth bomber and some of the star war defense projects. He would never discuss his work with me for security reasons and often joked with me by saying, "if I told you, I would then have to kill you". After 57 years we remain the best of friends and still compete, generally at golf, skiing and more pleasant encounters. His recent comment was, "one Nobel to zero".

Ferid Murad: Albanian-American Nobel Prize Winner Prof. Ferid Murad, born in the US, son of an Albanian moslem immigrant father and an American Baptist mother, was awarded the Nobel prize in Medicine in 1998. He received his M.D. Degree in 1965 from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, from which he also received a Ph.D. in Pharmacology that same year. Among other awards/honors that Dr. Murad has earned are the Ciba Award - American Heart Assoc. (1988); NIDDK Bd. of Scientific Counselors (1990-1994) (Chairman, 1993-1994); Lasker Award for Basic Research (1996); Member National Academy of Sciences (1997); Member Inst. of Med. National Academy of Sciences (1998). He is the author/co-author of some 334 medical/scientific publications. The following article about Dr. Murad was excerpted from The Jerusalem Post, November 29, 1998 " Dr. Ferid Murad, chairman of the department of integrative biology and pharmacology at the University of Texas (Houston) Medical School, will receive the Nobel prize along with Robert Furchgott of the State University of New York and Louis Ignarro of the University of Californa at Los Angeles. All three, working independently in Texas, California, and New York, have spent decades conducting basic research on nitric oxide (NO). Not only did their discoveries lead to the use of Viagra for treating impotence, they have now found that NO - which in minute quantities acts as the body's most important signaling molecule - is profoundly involved in blood pressure, heart function, infections, lung problems, and the defense of the body against tumors, as well as having the potential to treat disease.

Ferid Murad Nobel laureate Ferid Murad delivers lecture at IGM by Matt Blakeslee When molecular biologist Ferid Murad and colleagues first published their discoveries about the importance of nitric oxide in the body, the ideas were so unorthodox skeptics merely dismissed them. Nearly three decades later, the work netted the group a Nobel Prize. Murad shared details of the research with a standing room-only audience at the USC Institute for Genetic Medicine on Nov. 14, lecturing about "The Role of Nitric Oxide and Cyclic GMP in Cellular Signaling"­the discovery for which he shared the 1998 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. The lecture was one in the series of distinguished lectureships in cardiovascular science sponsored by the Memorial Heart Research Foun-dation. The lectureships, which take place twice a year, focus on the genetics behind heart disease. Murad, the John S. Dunn Sr. Distinguished Chair in Physiology and Medicine at the University of Texas-Houston Medical School, discussed the intricacies of the experiments that earned him and two colleagues science's highest honor. Their discovery: that a simple gas called nitric oxide plays a crucial signaling role between cells. The researchers showed how nitric oxide stimulates cells to create more of a molecule inside themselves called cyclic GMP, a so-called second messenger that leads to physiological changes in cells and tissues.

·s»Dµo§G Professor Ferid Murad ¡@¡@Nobel Laureate in Physiology or Medicine in 1998, Professor Ferid Murad is currently Professor and Chairman of the Department of Integrative Biology and Pharmacology of the University of Texas - Houston Medical School in the USA. ¡@¡@Professor Murad has made distinguished achievements in both academic medicine and the pharmacological industry. He has led research in major pharmaceutical corporations. His work has focused on cell signaling and signal transduction systems. He discovered the new properties of nitric oxide - a colourless, odourless gas that acts as a messenger to tell blood vessels to relax and widen, lowering blood pressure. ¡@¡@For his discoveries, Professor Murad has shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1998 with two other scholars. Not only have these discoveries led to the development of Viagra for treating impotence, nitric oxide is also found to be involved in heart function, infectious and lung problems and the defence of the body against tumors and thus have the potential to treat the relevant diseases. The research of Professor Murad has opened up new horizons for the research of cell signaling. ¡@¡@In March 2000, Professor Murad visited The Chinese University of Hong Kong and delivered a public lecture on "Cellular Signaling with Nitric Oxide and Cyclic GMP". He is also the Honorary Director of the Epithelial Cell Biology Research Centre of The Chinese University of Hong Kong established in collaboration with the Chinese Academy of Military Medical Sciences, and has contributed tremendously to the development and research of the Centre.

Archives Nobel Prize Winner Ferid Murad Speaks Nobel Prize winner in medicine, Dr. Ferid Murad, with his brother Dr. Turhon Murad, Anthropology. Turhon Murad remembers when his brother first imagined what it would be like to win a Nobel prize decades before FeridÕs ground-breaking research with nitric oxide. (photo BA) "It's very, very exciting to do something that's never been done before and to get an answer to a question where only you know the answer for the first time. That's a really wonderful experience. And if you're lucky, that turns out to be important," Ferid Murad said. The answers Murad, Robert Furchgott, and Louis Ignarro found were important enough to earn them the 1998 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discoveries concerning nitric oxide as a signaling molecule in the cardiovascular system. Toward the end of the last century, Alfred Nobel used nitroglycerin in his invention of dynamite. He was later prescribed nitroglycerin for his heart disease, and, although he refused to take it, millions of other people have used it to relieve chest pain. Until Murad's work, however, no one knew precisely how nitroglycerin worked. His discovery came from his interest in intercellular communication and the role of second messenger molecules.
