On April 24, we celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Department of Genetics at Washington University. We heard about its history from Bob Waterston and Eric Green and how the former trainees are moving science forward.
NHGRI has great resources for those interested in the history of Genomics.

She left Canada because, I believe, women were not allow to pursue research careers. She went to Berlin, then U of Chicago, then U of Pittsburgh where she spent the bulk of her career. She was even (eventually) promoted to full professor.
Ever wondered about who Michaelis and Menton were? Learn more here…
On this day in 1879, Maud Menten was born in Port Lambton, Ontario.
In her work as a medical researcher, she became a leading expert in histochemistry and enzyme kinetics while fighting against sexism in her field.
Let's learn more about her life!
