A few minutes with him was enough to reveal a mind like a razor, an elegant command of language, and a quick-footed resilience that was driven by a sense of fun big enough to carry him through any adversity. It had to: rounded up as an enemy alien with many refugee and other obviously anti-Nazi scientists in Britain in 1940, he was for a year interned in insulting and often intolerable British and Canadian prison camps. One of his fellow prisoners was a student physicist and mathematician who entertained everyone with ad hoc lectures in vector geometry - later, Hermann Bondi was knighted and became chief scientific adviser to the Ministry of Defence. When the British government finally released all those shown to be innocent and useful, Max was given the choice of a professorship he had been offered in New York or of returning to Cambridge where, before his internment, he had just gained a doctorate in protein crystallography.

Brief biographies are provided below Rosalind Franklin was born in 1920. She studied at Newnham College graduating in 1941. She received her doctorate in physical chemistry from Cambridge in 1945 for work on carbon microstructures. After 3 years in Paris, during which she learnt X-ray diffraction techniques, she took a post at the University of London. It was here her most important work was done, applying X-ray diffraction to study the structure of biological molecules. Her work on DNA was crucial in determining its double helix structure. She died in 1958 aged just 37. More information is available Douglas Rayner Hartree was born in Cambridge in 1897. He studied Natural Sciences and graduated from St John's College in 1921. He was a research student then college fellow until 1929 when he was appointed Professor of Applied Mathematics at Manchester. After WW11 he returned to Cambridge as Plummer Professor of Mathematical Physics.

Extractions: da Tempo Medico ono un chimico che lavora in un centro di ricerche di fisica su argomenti di biologia". Così amava definirsi Max Ferdinand Perutz, morto a Cambridge il 6 febbraio, a quasi 88 anni. Un chimico che ha avuto un'influenza profonda sulla medicina, svelando l'architettura e il meccanismo d'azione dell'emoglobina e ponendo così le basi della biologia molecolare. "Fu lui a insegnarmi che l'enigma della vita era racchiuso nella struttura delle proteine, e che la cristallografia a raggi X era il solo modo per venirne a capo" racconterà in seguito Perutz. All'epoca si pensava che anche i geni fossero costituiti da proteine. Così il giovane Perutz imparò le tecniche di cristallografia per applicarle alla biochimica. E scelse di studiare l'emoglobina, la proteina più abbondante e facile a cristallizzare, utilizzando quella estratta dal cavallo. Nel 1959 la struttura spaziale dell'emoglobina e della mioglobina era cosa fatta. Racconterà Perutz: "Eravamo come esploratori alla scoperta di un nuovo continente. Ma ora bisognava spiegare il meccanismo molecolare dello scambio respiratorio". L'obiettivo venne centrato da Perutz e Kendrew negli anni successivi al Nobel. Un meccanismo che si rivelerà la chiave per comprendere numerose malattie ereditarie. A cominciare dall'anemia falciforme, dovuta a una sintesi difettosa dell'emoglobina.

Both his parents came from families of textile makers that had become rich by introducing mechanical spinning and weaving into the Austrian Monarchy in the 19th century. He went to a grammar school called the Theresianum in Vienna. His parents suggested that he should study law in preparation for entering the family business, but he was inspired to study chemistry by one of his teachers. He easily persuaded his parents to let him follow his own interest. Max Perutz began studying chemistry at Vienna University in 1932. He did not enjoy some parts of the course, like “inorganic analysis". However, he was very interested in other parts, like organic chemistry, and especially by organic biochemistry. He decided that he wanted to come to Cambridge to study more organic biochemistry and work for his Ph.D. thesis. He came to the
