From novel discovery to anti-aging therapy

Jen A. Miller — Thu, 08 Feb 2024 12:30:37 +0000

Major scientific breakthroughs are often dismissed as “novel” discoveries. This is especially true in fundamental biology. It’s hard to fathom the importance of something if its real-world applications are not readily apparent. And it’s even harder when dealing with a topic that isn’t well understood in the first place. Take, for example, the groundbreaking work...

Carol Greider: Nobel Prize-winning rogue biologist

Brian Stallard — Tue, 31 Mar 2020 18:50:11 +0000

Dr. Carol Greider proudly calls herself a “rogue scientist.” That iconoclastic approach led to her Nobel Prize-winning work on telomeres, and to becoming a champion for women in science. “You can do whatever you want, but you have to like whatever you do.” That’s what Carolyn “Carol” Greider’s father told her when she was growing...

First awarded in 1945, the Lasker Awards, often dubbed the “American Nobels,” are considered by many the nation’s most prestigious honor for basic and clinical medical research, primarily because of the extremely rigorous process of nomination and selection conducted by a jury of the world’s top scientists. The 2006 award recognizes Greider, the Daniel Nathans...
