Within the constellation of science, medicine and other disciplines are many Jewish luminaries who have lit up our world with memorable discoveries. There is no end to the achievements of Nobel Laureates of Jewish descent who you will continue to meet in forthcoming columns ISIDOR RABI (1898-1988) b. Rymanow, Austria Physicist While a full professor at Columbia University he conducted personal research on quantum mechanics, magnetism and nuclear physics. His principle discovery was a method employing molecular beams to measure the behavior of atomic nuclei. Such studies advanced our knowledge of the nature of atomic structure and earned him a Nobel Prize for Physics in 1944. He had earlier served as associate director of M.I.T'.s radiation laboratory and since 1953 as chairman of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission's general advisory comm- ittee. Throughout his distinguished career, he urged a largely public role in safely overseeing the peacetime uses of atomic energy. GERTRUDE ELION (1918- ) b. New York City Biochemist At the early age of 31, the intrepid researcher launched a long career in discovering effective cancer treatments. Within a decade she perfected a drug called thiogua- nine with the remarkable success--combined with other compounds--of totally curing 80% of all childhood leukemia patients. During an affiliation with pharm- aceutical giant Burroughs Wellcome she helped develop drugs to prevent kidney rejection and to treat anemia, hepatitis, gout, herpes and shingles. To her lasting credit is a major research role in formulating AZT, the first licensed U.S. drug to combat the AIDS virus. Her Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine was won in 1989. MURRAY GELL-MANN (1929- ) b. New York City Physicist The "quark," as he named it, was the long sought after holy grail of subatomic science, the most fundamental particle in the known ' A universe. He proposed its existence and clarified the puzzling phenomena of subatomic organization and interactions--within a scheme he called "The Eightfold Way," a widely accepted ordering system which explained physical reality. His brilliant display of theoretical analysis led to a Nobel Prize for Physics in 1969. The Ph.D. graduate of M.I.T. joined the faculty of California Institute of Technology and also won the coveted American Physical Society's Heineman Prize in 1956.. -- Saul Stadtmauer The Nobel Prizes are awarded to men and women who have rendered the greatest services to humankind. Those Jews who have been so honored forge a link in our geographical cultural chain with its 2,000 year historical lineage. Furthermore, our kinsmen have garnered more than 20% of the 663 Nobels given since the prize's inception.
