...innocence, Hayes and others often point to studies of workers at the Montrose Chemical Corp., the world's largest DDT producer, and federal prisoners who voluntarily accepted daily doses of DDT in Atlanta. In both cases, they say, there was no damage. But other scientists, including Stanford Molecular Biologist Joshua Lederberg, a Nobel laureate, explain that far too little is known about how DDT reacts with other body chemicals to acquit the pesticide so readily...
...biologist and a judge also received degrees. Dr. Hugh E. Huxley, a member of the Scientific Staff of the Medical Research Council, Laboratory of Molecular Biology, at Cambridge University, received a Doctor of Science. Wade H. McCree Jr., who is Judge of the Sixth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals in Detroit, received a Doctor of Laws...
...winners of the Ledlie prize-which is given every two years to the Harvard faculty member who makes "the most valuable contribution to science, or in any way for the benefit of mankind"- are Walter Gilbert '53, professor of Bio-physics, and Mark Ptashne, lecturer on Biochemistry and Molecular Biology...
...that then mass produce a pure gamma globulin that is unique to each patient. From a cooperative myeloma victim, the Rockefeller researchers obtained samples of blood and processed it to extract the globulin antibody. The remaining blood was returned to the donor. In H years, they got what by molecular standards is a huge amount...
Selective Immunity. Dr. Edelman, 39, a physician and molecular biologist, insists that the chemical description of an antibody molecule is basic science, and he will not speculate on its potential medical uses. But his remarkable accomplishment may well be an important step toward the day when doctors will be able to selectively regulate immune reactions, allowing patients to accept transplants without lowering their resistance to disease...
