The world cannot afford the loss of the talents of half its people if we are to solve the many problems which beset us." Born 07-19-1921, Rosalyn Sussman Yalow, German- born, U.S. Nobel prize scientist. After graduating Hunter College at 19, Yalow was unable to get a graduate school assistantship because she was a woman AND Jewish AND poor. She had to take a low-paying secretarial job with a biochemist at Columbia University:

    Extractions: Illustration by Art Seiden by Seymour "Sy" Brody Rosalyn S. Yalow became the second woman to ever win the Nobel Prize in medicine, 1977. Her achievement was the development of RIA, an application of nuclear physics in clinical medicine that makes it possible for scientists to use radiotropic tracers to measure the con- centration of hundreds of pharmacologic and biologic substances in the blood and other fluids of the human body and in animals and plants. She invented this technique in 1959 to measure the amount of insulin in the blood of adult diabetics. She was born on July 19, 1921, in the Bronx, New York, of Jewish parents, Clara and Simon Sussman. She attended the New York City public school system and in Walton High School she was encouraged by her chemistry teacher to pursue a career in science. She graduated Hunter College and accepted a teaching fellowship in physics at the University of Illinois. In 1945, she became the second woman to receive a Ph.D. degree in physics from Illinois. She met A. Aaron Yalow, a fellow physics student who was the son of a rabbi and they were married on June 6, 1943. They returned to New York where she accepted a lecturer's post in physics, which she held until 1950. During this period, they had two children, Benjamin and Elanna.

    Extractions: ROSALYN YALOW: SUMMARY OF HER LIFE Born July 21 in New York City, New York. Graduated from Walton High School where a chemistry teacher excited her interest in chemistry. Attended Hunter College, a college for women in New York City. Her interest was diverted from chemistry to physics by the influence of two professors. Believing that good physics graduate schools would not admit women in physics nor provide financial assistance, she took a job as a secretary for a leading biochemist. She attended business school to take stenography. She thought that this would provide her with a back door to get into graduate school. Left business school to attend graduate school at the University of Illinois after receiving an offer to be a teaching assistant in physics. She was the only woman among the four hundred faculty members at the College of Engineering. To make up for the lack of physics classes offered at Hunter, Yalow sat in on two undergraduate physics classes, took three graduate courses and was a teaching assistant for freshman physics during her first year as a graduate student.

    Extractions: "The world cannot afford the loss of the talents of half its people if we are to solve the many problems which beset us." Male and female educators alike are unfamiliar with the contributions that women have made to science, engineering and technology. In an effort to alter this trend, numerous scientists that are female are profiled in the appropriate concept area throughout the Queen's Science Education Resource Site. A comprehensive list of these citations is provided here in addition to links to sites that offer a more comprehensive list and more detailed biographies of women in science. The last section of this page provides suggestions for activities that students can do to explore the evolving role of women in science. Profiles of Women in Science

    Extractions: June 27, 1985 Letter As members of the international community of intellectuals and scholars we are shocked by the recent indictment and the imminent trial of three dissident leaders, Adam Michnik, Bogdan Lis, and Wladyslaw Frasyniuk. These actions indicate that our hopes for a more tolerant attitude toward free speech in Poland have been unfounded. These leaders, already imprisoned for two months, have been charged with inciting public unrest for merely discussing the possibility of calling a fifteen-minute general strike to protest food price increases. The strike, as you know, never even occurred. Among those jailed is the historian Adam Michnik. A noted author and theorist of democracy, Michnik has devoted a lifetime to nonviolent protest on behalf of economic, cultural, and political freedom. He has already spent several years in prison in Poland. His release last summer was interpreted by some as a harbinger of liberalization. Mr. Michnik's reimprisonment, so suddenly, obviously belies this view. We strongly protest the imprisonment of Mr. Michnik and his colleagues. Any government which responds to the peaceful dissent of intellectuals through forceful detainment violates international standards of human rights and in so doing alienates itself from individuals and institutions in the world for whom such rights are sacrosanct. We demand that the Polish government adopt a genuine program of liberalization and begin by releasing Mr. Michnik and his colleagues.

Spotlight Scientist Rosalyn Sussman Yalow (February/March 1998) Vital Life Statistics R osalyn Sussman Yalow was born on July 19, 1921, in Bronx, New York. She attended college at New York's Hunter College, graduating with honors in physics and chemistry in 1941. Y alow applied for entry in Purdue University's graduate physics program, but she was rejected. Purdue said its reasons were, "She is from New York. She is Jewish. She is a woman." Y alow did not give up. She applied to and was accepted by the University of Illinois. She received her Ph.D. in nuclear physics there. S he retired in 1991 and now spends her time calling for more science education, better child care, and various other causes. Achievements and Awards R osalyn Yalow's primary accomplishment involves the creation of a new analytic technique called the radioimmunoassay, or the RIA. This technique allowed quantifying very small amounts of biological substances in body fluids using radioactive-labeled material. This made it possible to diagnose conditions caused by minute changes in hormone levels. RIA was used in 1951 to show that adult diabetics did not always suffer from insuffiency of insulin in their blood and that some unknown factor must be blocking the action of insulin.

    Extractions: Rosalyn Sussman Yalow was born on July 19, 1921 in New York, New York. She was educated at Hunter College and the University of Illinois, where she completed her Ph.D. in nuclear physics in 1945. Following completion of her doctoral degree, she joined the Bronx Veterans Administration Hospital in 1947. She also held the post of research professor at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine. She is most noted for her work in the development of radio immunoassay procedures. She received the Nobel Prize in medicine in 1977 for the applications of radio immunoassay procedures to biomedical research. She and her coworker are credited with the use of radioactive iodine as a tracer in the clinical diagnosis of thyroid disease. They also investigated the distribution and metabolism of serum proteins in the body. During the 1950s Yalow and Berson discovered the presence of insulin-binding antibodies in the plasma of insulin-treated patients. Later they studied human growth hormone, corticotrophin, parathyroid hormone and gastrin in the human body. The procedures developed by Yalow and Berson have lead to the diagnosis of diseases associated with hormonal excesses and/or deficiencies. References Ireland, N.O. (1962).

    Extractions: Since 1901, more than 500 men have won science Nobel Prizes. Only ten women scientists - fewer than two percent of the total - have won Nobels. Why? This book explores the reasons for this enormous disparity by examining the lives and achievements of 15 women scientists who either won a Nobel Prize or came very close. The biographies are based on personal interviews with all the featured women who were alive at the time and with more than 250 of their close associates. The 15 women are: Marie Curie, Lise Meitner, Emmy Noether, Gerty Radnitz Cori, Irene Joliot-Curie, Barbara McClintock, Maria Goeppert Mayer, Rita Levi-Montalcini, Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin, Chien-Shiung Wu, Gertrude Elion, Rosalind Franklin, Rosalyn Yalow, and Christiane Nuesslein-Volhard.

    http://www2.worldbook.com/features/wscimed/html/physicists.htm
    
    Extractions: Rosalyn Yalow Physics is the science devoted to the study of matter and energy. Physicists try to understand what matter is and why it behaves the way it does. They seek to learn how energy is produced, how it travels from place to place, and how it can be controlled. Physicists are also interested in how matter and energy are related to each other and how they affect each other over time and through space. The word physics comes from a Greek word meaning natural things. Knowledge obtained from the study of physics is important in other sciences, including astronomy, biology, chemistry, and geology. There is also a close connection between physics and practical developments in engineering, medicine, and technology. For example, engineers design automobiles and airplanes according to certain principles of physics. Laws and theories of physics have enabled engineers and scientists to put satellites into orbit and to receive information from space probes that travel to distant regions of the solar system. Research in physics has led to the use of radioactive materials in the study, diagnosis, and treatment of certain diseases. In addition, theories and principles of physics explain the operation of many modern home conveniences, from vacuum cleaners to videotape recorders.
