Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin by M.F. Perutz
(First appeared in the Independent Newspaper) In October 1964 the Daily Mail carried a headline "Grandmother wins Nobel Prize". Dorothy Hodgkin won it "for her determination by X-ray techniques of the structures of biologically important molecules". She used a physical method, X-ray crystallography, first developed by W. L. Bragg, to find the arrangements of the atoms in simple salts and minerals. She had the courage, skill, and sheer willpower to extend the method to compounds that were far more complex than anything attempted before. The most important of these were cholesterol, vitamin D, penicillin and vitamin B12. Later she was most famous for her work on insulin, but this reached its climax only five years after she had won the prize. In the early Forties, when Howard Florey and Ernest Chain had isolated penicillin from Alexander Fleming's mould, some of the best chemists in Britain and the United States tried to find its chemical constitution. They were taken aback when a young woman, using not chemistry but X-ray analysis, then still mistrusted as an upstart physical technique, had the face to tell them what it was. When Dorothy Hodgkin insisted that its core was a ring of three carbon atoms and a nitrogen which was believed to be too unstable to exist, one of the chemists, John Cornforth, exclaimed angrily: "If that's the formula of penicillin, I'll give up chemistry and grow mushrooms". Fortunately he swallowed his words and won the Chemistry Prize himself 30 years later. Hodgkin's formula proved right and was the starting-point for the synthesis of chemically modified penicillins that have saved many lives.

Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin
British crystallographer Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin was known for her advancements in the field of x-ray crystallography and biomolecular structure. Hodgkin accomplished structure determinations on many compounds of medical importance, including penicillin, insulin, and vitamin B12, through the use of x-ray diffraction analysis. She also introduced computers into the processing of diffraction patterns(Dickneider). Hodgkin was finally rewarded for her efforts as the sole Nobel Laureate in 1964(Hunter). Her love for chemistry all began as a child growing up in England.
Dorothy Mary Crowfoot was born in Cairo, Egypt on May 12, 1910(Dickneider). She was born to English parents. Her father, John Winter Crowfoot was an inspector for the Ministry of Education. He was a distinguished classical scholar and archaeologist. Her mother, Grace Mary Hood Crowfoot, was an excellent botanist. She was also an expert on ancient textiles(Hunter). Dorothy was one of four daughters. Her early years were spent in Norfolk, England where she attended the Sir John Leman School in Beccles, Suffolk(Dickneider). At age ten, she was introduced to elementary chemistry. It was here that she grew her first crystals and began learning crystallography. From the beginning she was intrigued by “the elegance and beauty of their geometric shapes, with plane faces meeting at characteristic angles, and the orderly symmetry of their structures”(Hunter).
During the spring after her thesis, while in London to photograph insulin at the Royal Institution, she met Thomas L. Hodgkin. Hodgkin, a historian, was educated at Winchester and Oxford. He came from a remarkable family that includes Dr. Thomas Hodgkin, who first described the neoplastic condition known today as Hodgkin’s disease. Thomas and Dorothy were married in December of 1937. They had three children: Luke, born in 1938, Elizabeth, born in 1941, and Toby born in 1946(Hunter).

Dr Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin Chemist, Crystallographer, Humanitarian by Wageesha Senaratne
Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin was an outstanding Scientist, great humanist and above all a splendid human being. Among her peers in the scientific community there would have been others who were respected as much as Dorothy Hodgkin was, but perhaps none who was loved more than she was.
Dorothy Cowfoot was born on May 12th 1910 in Cairo. She had most of her secondary education in Beccles, Suffolk, England and subsequently joined Sommerville College at Oxford in 1928.
At that time when very few women studied science she took her basic degree in chemistry While studying in the department of mineralogy and crystallography, she employed the physical science of X-ray crystallography to aid her in determining the structural arrangement of atoms in simple salts and minerals such as thallium dialkyl - halides . This was the first of what would be many X-ray studies.
In 1933 Miss.Crowfoot began working with J.D.Bernarl on her doctorate at Cambridge. During her research Miss.Crowfoot was able to determine the structural layout of atoms and the over all molecular shape of numerous molecules. This information contributed to molecular biological activity. It was then that she was involved, along with Bernal recording the first X-ray diffraction pattern from a protein (pepsin) crystal. This marked the beginning of macromolecular crystallography which dominates structural biology today.
In 1934 upon her return to Oxford University she crystallized and X-ray photographed insulin. This was a major achievement since she completed the crystallization and photographs on her own. This analysis was completed at a time when crystal structures of even simple molecules was a great challenge. While working at Oxford University she was barred from research meetings of the faculty Chemistry Club because she was a woman. Later her talent and perseverance prevailed and she won over the students and faculty members.

While at Somerville College, Oxford (1928-32), Hodgkin began her crystallographic studies. While studying for her doctorate at the University of Cambridge in the mid-1930s, she and a coworker took the first X-ray diffraction photograph of the protein pepsin , and somewhat later she made a survey of the sterols. She returned to Oxford as a tutor in 1935, and in 1937 she married the writer and lecturer Thomas L. Hodgkin. She continued to teach at Oxford, eventually becoming emeritus professor there as well as Wolfson research professor of the Royal Society (1960-77), chancellor of Bristol University (1970-88), and fellow of Wolfson College, Oxford (1977-82). From 1942 to 1949 Hodgkin worked on a structural analysis of penicillin. She and her colleagues made the first X-ray photograph of vitamin B

Dorothy Crowfoot nacque al Cairo, dove suo padre lavorava come archeologo; da ragazza lavorò con i genitori negli scavi di una chiesa bizantina in Transgiordania.
Poté poi sviluppare il suo interesse per la cristallografia grazie al sostegno dei genitori fino ad ottenere una laurea a Oxford nel 1932.
Mentre studiava mineralogia e cristallografia, finì per occuparsi di fisica attraverso la cristallografia ai raggi X, che le forniva un valido aiuto nel determinare la struttura atomica di sali semplici e in seguito anche di composti organici.
Questa fu la prima di molte ricerche ai raggi X : in seguito applicò il suo metodo allo studio di molecole più complesse. Fino ad arrivare allo studio dell'attività molecolare biologica, delle proteine, della struttura dell'insulina, dell'emoglobina e dei virus. Lavorò con J. D. Bernal in questo campo.
Per prima compì delle analisi basate su calcoli tridimensionali per definire la struttura molecolare.
Nel 1934 studiò e fotografò ai raggi X l'insulina, lavorando di persona nei laboratori dell'Università di Oxford. I risultati che ottenne hanno cambiato il volto della moderna biologia. Ma ebbe molte difficoltà perché era esclusa da una serie di occasioni di incontro tra ricercatori essendo donna.

    Chemistry is the scientific study of substances. Chemists investigate the properties (characteristics) of the substances that make up the universe. They study how those substances behave under different conditions. They attempt to explain the behavior of a substance in terms of the substance's structure and composition. Chemists also seek to understand chemical changes. Chemical changes involve alterations in a substance's chemical makeup. The combination of iron with oxygen from the air to form rust is a chemical change. Substances may also go through physical change without altering their chemical makeup. Water changes physically but not chemically when it freezes.
    Chemists have learned much about the chemical substances and processes that occur in nature. In addition, chemical researchers have created many useful substances that do not occur naturally. Products resulting from chemical research include many artificial fibers, drugs, dyes, fertilizers, and plastics. The knowledge gained by chemists and the materials they have produced have greatly improved people's lives.

    Dorothy Hodgkin: A Life
    by Georgina Ferry
    D Ferry's biography aptly characterizes Dorothy as "a quintessentially English woman whose humanity recognized no national boundaries." Dorothy Mary Crowfoot's parents came from conventional well-off families who valued learning and intellectual curiosity. They strongly influenced Dorothy towards systematic investigation to answer questions. Her early scholarship in Suffolk was under progressive educators who used practical demonstrations to teach their students. An unforgettable experiment for Dorothy was one of mixing solutions of alum and copper sulfate which were then allowed to evaporate and produced sparkling crystals. She later wrote "I was captured for life by chemistry and by crystals." Her father John studies classics at Oxford which took him to Greece, Cyprus and Asia Minor to work on excavations. Before he left England in 1909 John married Grace Mary Hood (Molly) whose background prepared her to be a good wife to a country gentleman. Dorothy was born the next year and for the first four years of her life she and her family lived the typical life of English expatriates administering the empire in its outposts. They returned to England for a few months each year but during the entire period of the First World War the children, cared for by relatives and friends, saw their mother only once, when she visited England for a few weeks. Molly then decided to stay home in England and undertook to educate her children herself on walks, nature studies, and history which were all greatly enjoyed a period Dorothy felt was the happiest in her life.
