   Extractions: By seventh grade I was committed to mathematics. A great chemistry teacher at Walton High School, Mr. Mondzak, excited my interest in chemistry, but when I went to Hunter, the college for women in New York City's college system (now the City University of New York ), my interest was diverted to physics especially by Professors Herbert N. Otis and Duane Roller. In the late '30's when I was in college, physics, and in particular nuclear physics, was the most exciting field in the world. It seemed as if every major experiment brought a Nobel Prize. Eve Curie had just published the biography of her mother, Madame Marie Curie , which should be a must on the reading list of every young aspiring female scientist. As a Junior at college, I was hanging from the rafters in Room 301 of Pupin Laboratories (a physics lecture room at

   Extractions: Physicists Distinguished in Other Fields Contributions Publications Honors Jobs/Positions Education Additional Information Developed, in collaboration with S. A. Berson, methods of using radioactive isotopes to investigate physiological systems that allow detection of minute concentrations of biological or pharmacological substances in blood or other fluid samples. These techniques are known as radioimmunoassay or RIA. Radioimmunoassay is a test combining the use of radioactive isotopes with immunology to measure hormones, enzymes and other substances that exist in such low concentrations in the body that they can be impossible to detect by any other laboratory methods. [36 UN] Her work included the basic science, mathematical analysis, biomedical studies and instrumentation. Yalow and Berson demonstrated that insulin is bound by antibodies in some diabetics, which leads to abnormal degradation of the insulin. It had been previously thought that diabetes is due to deficiency of insulin secretion. "RIA has been used to screen blood for hepatitis virus in blood banks, to determine effective dosage levels of drugs and antibiotics, to detect foreign substances in the blood, to treat dwarfed children with growth hormones, to test and correct hormone levels in infertile couples, and in many other fields. RIA made endocrinology one of the hottest fields in medical research." - Danuta Bois in Microscoft Encarta

Rosalyn Sussman Yalow was awarded the 1977 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for an analytical technique called radioimmunoassay (RIA) which accurately measures trace amounts of substances, such as insulin, in the body. She was the first American-born woman to win a Nobel Prize in science. Rosalyn Yalow was born in the Bronx, New York on July 19, 1921. She graduated magna cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa from Hunter College in 1941. She was the first woman since 1917 to receive a teaching assistantship in physics at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where she taught and worked toward her M.S. degree in physics. In 1942 she married fellow graduate student Aaron Yalow. Three years later, she received her Ph.D. degree in nuclear physics. While teaching at Hunter College in 1946, she began to volunteer in Dr. Edith Quimby's laboratory at the College of Physicians and Surgeons at Columbia University. Here she gained experience in the application of radioisotopes to solve medical problems. She became a consultant to the Veterans Administration Hospital in the Bronx, during which time she began studying the use of radioisotopes in clinical diagnosis, therapy, and analysis. In 1950 Solomon A. Berson joined her group and remained a collaborator until his death in 1972. They jointly discovered and developed the RIA technique for insulin. Yalow was the first woman to receive the Albert Lasker Basic Medical Research Award in 1976.

Yalow graduated from Hunter College in New York City in 1941 and four years later received her Ph.D. in physics from the University of Illinois. From 1946 to 1950 she lectured on physics at Hunter. In 1947 she became a consultant in nuclear physics to the Bronx Veterans Administration Hospital, where from 1950 to 1970 she was physicist and assistant chief of the radioisotope service. With a colleague, Solomon A. Berson, Yalow began investigating various medical applications of radioactive isotopes. By combining techniques from radioisotope tracing and immunology, she developed RIA, which proved to be a very sensitive and simple means for measuring minute concentrations of biological and pharmacological substances in blood or other fluid samples. RIA was first applied by Yalow and Berson in 1959 in studying insulin concentration in the blood of diabetics, but the method soon found hundreds of other applications. In 1976 Yalow became the first woman to be awarded the Albert Lasker Prize for basic medical research. From 1973 she was director of the Solomon A. Berson Research Laboratory.

    Extractions: Rosalyn Yalow was only the second woman to win a Nobel Prize in medicine. Her life and career have been shaped by the powerful obstacles that women face in developing careers at the top of their fields. The ways in which she dealt with these obstacles were unique, interesting, and tragic. Men feared her, women disliked her, feminists distrusted her. She is among the most complex figures of our time. I was a witness and a participant in her struggles. I wrote this book so that men and women might consider how gender bias and other inequalities continue to thwart talented individuals. Big time science is still very much a man's world. From Yalow's story we can learn about our American values, about our scientific establishment, and about our own ambitious impulses. If we fail to learn from trailblazers like Yalow then we all have a harder way to go. Here is the story of an alpha female, someone who could lead the pack, even if it was all men.

George B. Kauffman and Laurie M. Kauffman, California State University, Fresno, georgek@csufresno. edu On December 10, 1977, in Stockholm’s Konserthus (Concert Hall), Sweden’s King Carl XVI Gustav awarded one half of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine to Rosalyn Yalow of the Veterans Administration Hospital, Bronx, New York “for the development of radioimmunoassays [RIA] of peptide hormones.” He presented the other half to Roger Guillemin of the Salk Institute, La Jolla, CA and Andrew V. Schally of the Veterans Administration Hospital, New Orleans, LA, both of whom used RIA extensively, “for their discoveries concerning the peptide hormone production of the brain.” Yalow was the second woman to receive this honor (Gerty Therese Cori and her husband Carl Ferdinand Cori had received half of the prize in 1947 “for their discovery of the course of the catalytic conversion of glycogen”), but she was the first American-educated woman to win the prize. Eugene Straus, M.D., a gastroenterologist, Professor of Medicine and Chief of Digestive Diseases at the State University of New York Health Science Center in Brooklyn, and Yalow’s longtime friend and colleague, begins his “biographical memoir” with her sudden stroke on January 1, 1995, when she was taken to a hospital, where, soiled with blood and unrecognized, she was “dumped” as a charity case onto another hospital. He then contrasts her slow and ultimate recovery from her crippling illness with her earlier, productive years that he chronicles in empathic but objective detail based on his own contact with her and extensive interviews with family and colleagues.

PIZZI Rosalyn Yalow: Assaying the unknown This pioneering woman physicist received a Nobel Prize for her work in the development of the radioimmunoassay. THE NATIONAL LIBRARY OF MEDICINE Rosalyn Yalow (she had married a fellow student, Aaron Yalow, in 1941) accepted a position as an engineer at the Federal Telecommunications Laboratory, and then in 1946 a full-time teaching position at her alma mater, Hunter College. During her graduate training in Illinois under the renowned nuclear physicist Maurice Goldhaber, Yalow became proficient in the construction and use of apparatus for the measurement of radioactive substances, a skill that would prove critical in her later research. In 1947, while still on the faculty at Hunter, Yalow became a consultant in nuclear physics at the Veterans Administration (VA) Hospital in the Bronx, where the staff was conducting research on medical applications of radioactive materials. The VA decided to establish Radioisotope Services in several of its hospitals nationwide. Yalow helped develop the service at the Bronx VA and started research projects with Bernard Roswit, chief of radiotherapy services. Expanding these measuring techniques to the study of globins and other serum proteins, Yalow and Berson were determined to apply their methods to one of the most important classes of small peptides: hormones. According to Yalow, they chose insulin as a subject of research because it was the hormone most readily available in a purified form and was easier to work with in the laboratory than other hormones. But Yalow had a familial reason to be interested in insulin, as her husband, Aaron, was diabetic. Among the endocrine gland disorders, diabetes affects the greatest number of people, making insulin uniquely important. Without insulin and its ability to lower blood sugar, death is inevitable.

In 1950, she left Hunter College and became an assistant head of the radioisotope service at the hospital. She began a long-lasting partnership with Dr. Solomon A. Berson and together they used radioactive isotopes to investigate physiological systems. They created a new analytic technique called the radioimmunoassay, or the RIA, which allowed quantifying very small amounts of biological substances in body fluids using radioactive-labeled material. They made it possible for doctors to diagnose conditions caused by minute changes in hormone levels. In 1959 they used RIA to show that adult diabetics did not always suffer insufficiency of insulin in their blood and that some unknown factor must be blocking the action of insulin. They also showed that the injected insulin obtained from animals was being inactivated by the patients' immune systems. RIA was then used by other investigators to screen blood for hepatitis virus in blood banks, to determine effective dosage levels of drugs and antibiotics, to detect foreign substances in the blood, to treat dwarfed children with growth hormones, to test and correct hormone levels in infertile couples, and in many other fields. RIA made endocrinology one of the hottest fields in medical research.
