...like Wilkins and Watson, Crick had been impressed with Schrodinger's What Is Life? He wasn't actually studying DNA, though; at age 35, thanks in part to a hiatus for military work in World War II, he was still pursuing his Ph.D. on the X-ray diffraction of hemoglobin, the iron-carrying protein in blood. Watson, meanwhile, had gone to Cambridge to use X-ray diffraction to understand the structure of another protein, myoglobin...
DIED. MAX PERUTZ, 87, groundbreaking molecular biologist; in Cambridge, England. Perutz and colleague John Kendrew won the 1962 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for uncovering the structure of the organic molecule hemoglobin, a key to transporting oxygen and carbon dioxide through the body...
...cult-classic Robot Monster; in Los Angeles. Nader's soon-to-be-published book, The Perils of Paul, gives an inside look into Hollywood's gay community. DIED. MAX PERUTZ, 87, scientist who won the 1962 Nobel Prize in chemistry for mapping out the molecular structure of human hemoglobin with colleague John Kendrew; in Cambridge, England. Perutz's work laid the foundation for human genome and disease research. DIED. CLAUDE BROWN, 64, author of Manchild in the Promised Land, which closely follows his own experiences growing up among killers, prostitutes and drug addicts on the streets of Harlem...
...those for public schoolers. These schools compete for students like L.J. Decker, 17, from Katy, Texas, who scored 1560 on the SAT and was part of a team of home schoolers who won the Toshiba ExploraVision contest for their idea of a futuristic scuba device that would use artificial hemoglobin to convert the oxygen in water into...
...exploit what they know about the parasite's life cycle after it invades the red blood cells of the human body. Daniel Goldberg, a malaria researcher at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute in Chevy Chase, Md., is trying to figure out how to block the parasite's digestion of hemoglobin and thereby cause it to starve...
