Joshua Lederberg, Rockefeller University’s fifth president, won a share of the 1958 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his discoveries of genetic transfer in bacteria. Through the 1940s, scientific wisdom had it that bacteria do not have genetic mechanisms similar to those of higher organisms.
The essays in this chapter offer three personal perspectives on Joshua Lederberg’s many contributions to science, society, scholarship, and to the lives and careers of his colleagues, students, and friends. The first contributor, David A. Hamburg of Cornell University’s Weill Medical College, recounts Lederberg’s legacies as scientist and humanist through the lens of nearly 50 years of ...
Transduction, Plasmids, and the Foundation of Biotechnology. Between 1947 and the mid-1950s, Joshua Lederberg and his collaborators in the Department of Genetics at the University of Wisconsin described a steady stream of important experimental techniques and results which transformed the science of bacterial genetics and helped define the ...
Esther Lederberg. Esther Miriam Zimmer Lederberg ( Nueva York, 18 de diciembre de 1922 - Stanford, 11 de noviembre de 2006) fue una microbióloga e inventora estadounidense, pionera en genética bacteriana. 1 2 Sus contribuciones más notables incluyen el descubrimiento del virus bacteriófago λ, la transferencia de genes entre bacterias por ...
Joshua Lederberg's path-breaking research into the molecular mechanisms of gene action made him one of the founders of molecular biology in the 1940s and 1950s. A prodigy who received the Nobel Prize at age 33, he helped lay the groundwork for genetic engineering, modern biotechnology, and genetic approaches to medicine.
5 de feb. de 2008 · Joshua Lederberg, one of the 20th century’s leading scientists, whose work in bacterial genetics had vast medical implications and led to his receiving a Nobel Prize in 1958, died on Saturday.
