InventorEd, Inc Presents: Gertrude B. Elion 1918 to 2-21-1999 Click here to break out of Frame GERTRUDE B. ELION, 1918-1999CHAPEL HILL It is with deep sorrow that we announce the death of Dr. Gertrude Belle Elion, Scientist Emeritus with Glaxo Wellcome Inc., and winner of the 1988 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine. Dr. Elion died Sunday, February 21, at 11:30 p.m. at University of North Carolina Hospitals in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. She was 81 years old. Dr. Elion made numerous contributions to the advancement of science and discovered many life-saving medicines including drugs used to treat leukemia, herpes, and immunity disorders. Her name appears on 45 patents. She perhaps is best known for sharing the 1988 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine with George Hitchings, her colleague of 40 years, with whom she worked at Burroughs Wellcome. Dr. Elion received a bachelor's degree from Hunter College in New York in 1937 and a master's degree in chemistry from New York University in 1941. Since female scientists were not accepted in academia at that time, she was unable to find a laboratory position and instead went to work teaching high school chemistry and physics, providing laboratory instruction for nurses, and testing pickles and berries for the Quaker Maid Company. Her great opportunity came when the United States entered World War II. She joined Burroughs Wellcome in 1944 as an assistant in the laboratory of Dr. George Hitchings, the man with whom she would share the Nobel Prize for Medicine 44 years later. Dr. Hitchings died at age 92, almost exactly a year ago, on February 27, 1998.

Elion, winner of the Nobel prize in in Medicine in 1988. Her work demonstrated differences in nucleic acid metabolism between normal human cells, cancer cells, protozoa, bacteria and virus. On the basis of such differences a series of drugs were developed that block nucleic acid synthesis in cancer cells and noxious organisms without damaging the normal human cells. This resource is appropriate for all users, particularly for girls and women, because it acknowledges women's contributions to STEM.

(Chemistry) from New York University she began her career in chemistry as a high school teacher and an analytical chemist. invented leukemia fighting drug, 6-mercaptopurine and drugs to facilitate kidney transplants. her work at Wellcome Research Laboratories led to the synthesi of anti-leukemia drugs, 6-mercaptopurine and 6-thioguanine. also discovered Imuran, a derivative of 6-mercaptopurine, that blocks the body's rejection of foreign tissues. Imuran is one of the drugs that is used when kidneys are donated from an unrelated party. Elion contributed to the development of allopurinol for the treatment of gout and acyclovir for the treatment of herpes. she was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine in 1988 for her discoveries of important principles in drug treatment.
