http://www.nobel.se/medicine/laureates/1985/brown-bio.html
Michael S. Brown was born on April 13, 1941, in Brooklyn, New York, the eldest child of Harvey Brown, a textile salesman, and Evelyn Brown, a housewife. His sister Susan was born three years later. When Brown was 11 years old the family moved to Elkins Park, Pennsylvania, a suburb of Philadelphia, where Brown attended Cheltenham High School. An amateur radio operating license obtained at age 13 led to a life-long fascination with science. A serious interest in journalism also developed early. These two passions, science and writing, have remained paramount ever since.
Brown graduated in 1962 from the College of Arts and Sciences of the University of Pennsylvania, with chemistry as his major subject. He spent most of his time at the headquarters of the student newspaper, the Daily Pennsylvanian, where he served as features editor and briefly as editor-in-chief. In 1966 Brown received his M.D. degree from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. In 1964 he married Alice Lapin, a companion from childhood. The next two years were spent as intern and resident in Internal Medicine at the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. Here Brown met

Brown, Michael S.,
in full MICHAEL STUART BROWN (b. April 13, 1941, New York, N.Y., U.S.), American molecular geneticist who, along with Joseph L. Goldstein , was awarded the 1985 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine for their elucidation of a key link in the metabolism of cholesterol in the human body. Brown graduated from the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, in 1962 and received his M.D. from that university's medical school in 1966. He became friends with Goldstein when they were both working as interns at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston during 1966-68. After conducting research at the National Institutes of Health from 1968 to 1971, he became an assistant professor at the Southwestern Medical School in Dallas, Texas, where he was reunited with his colleague Goldstein. In Dallas the two men began their collaborative research on the genetic factors that are responsible for high levels of cholesterol in the bloodstream. They compared the cells of normal persons with those of persons having familial hypercholesterolemia, which is an inherited tendency to get abnormally high blood cholesterol levels and, as a result, atherosclerosis and other circulatory ailments. Brown and Goldstein were able to trace a genetic defect in the afflicted persons that resulted in their lacking or being deficient in cell receptors for low-density lipoproteins (LDL), which are the primary cholesterol carrying particles. Their research established that these cell receptors draw the LDL particles into the cells as a prelude to breaking them down, and thus remove them from the bloodstream. The two men also discovered that the cell capture of such lipoproteins inhibits the further production of new LDL receptors by the cells, thus explaining how high-cholesterol diets overwhelm the body's natural capacity for withdrawing cholesterol from the bloodstream.

Class of 1958
Inducted in 1987 Michael S. Brown
1985 Nobel Prize in Medicine
Winner of the 1985 Nobel Prize in Medicine for discoveries about cholesterol that could help prevent heart attacks and strokes, Dr. Brown is a molecular geneticist at the University of Texas Health Center in Dallas. A life-long fascination with science began with an amateur radio operating license obtained at the age of 13, while a student at Thomas Williams Junior High School in Wyncote. At T.W. and then at Cheltenham High, this interest in science was fostered along with a growing interest in writing Dr. Brown's two major areas of interest. Dr. Brown graduated from the University of Pennsylvania undergraduate school and School of Medicine. He was elected to Phi Beta Kappa. He spent several years at the National Institutes of Health, first as a Clinical Associate in Gastroenterology and Hereditary Diseases and then in the Laboratory of Biochemistry, where he learned the techniques of enzymology and the fundamental principles of metabolic regulation. In 1971 Dr. Brown joined the Division of Gastroenterology in the Department of Internal Medicine at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School in Dallas. Here his research work continued with his friend and associate, Dr. Joseph L. Goldstein. In 1974 Brown was promoted to Associate Professor and to Professor in 1976. In 1977 he was appointed Paul J. Thomas Professor of Medicine and Genetics and Director of the Center for Genetic Diseases. In 1985 Dr. Brown was named Regental Professor of the University of Texas.

July 24, 2002 Nobel Laureate to Speak on "Genetic Defenses Against Heart Attacks"
The average American maintains a blood cholesterol level that is above the 90th percentile for the human species considered as a whole. This accounts for the 10-fold higher rate of heart attacks in the U.S. as compared with countries where the diet is low in fat and cholesterol. In his lecture titled, "Genetic Defenses Against Heart Attacks," Dr. Brown will discuss how the body controls the level of cholesterol in blood, why some people are more sensitive to high fat diets than others, and why these control mechanisms don't protect us from high fat diets.

Nobel Prize Winners Seek Stronger Support for Basic Science
The American Institute of Physics Bulletin of Science
Policy News Number 101: June 26, 1996 The letter, dated June 19, follows: "Dear President Clinton and Members of Congress: "As men and women who have helped to shape the modern scientific age and who care deeply about the future of our nation, we urge you to reaffirm the fundamental role of the federal government in supporting basic scientific research. "Americans have been awarded more than one-half of all Nobel Prizes in physics, chemistry and medicine since 1945. This impressive success is no accident, but the result of a firm and consistent commitment by the federal government to basic science research at our universities. Our nation's policymakers and public have been prudent investors because their support has paid off in tremendous ways. "America's investment in research over the last fifty years has been a vital source of our economic and political strength around the world, as well as the quality of life Americans enjoy at home. The polio vaccine, computers, jet propulsion and disease resistant grains and vegetables are some of the thousands of advances pioneered at our universities that have had dramatic benefits for our health, economy, security and quality of life. "New and equally breathtaking advances may be just around the corner. Genetic research, for example, gives promise of better treatments for Alzheimer's, cancer and other diseases. Lighter and stronger composite materials may be developed with important applications in transportation, medicine and the military. Continuing support for university-based research will not only pave the way for these important breakthroughs, but will also train the next generation of pioneers and Nobelists.
