Cori, Gerty Theresa Radnitz
(1896-1957), biochemist Born in Prague, Austria-Hungary (now Czech Republic), on August 15, 1896, Gerty Radnitz was educated in a girls' school and at the Realgymnasium of Tetschen before entering the German University of Prague in 1914. She graduated in 1920 with a medical degree and married a fellow student, Carl F. Cori. For two years she worked as an assistant in the Karolinen Children's Hospital in Vienna. In 1922 the Coris went to the United States, where both joined the staff of the New York State Institute for the Study of Malignant Disease in Buffalo, New York. There Gerty Cori was an assistant pathologist (1922-25) and an assistant biochemist (1925-31). The Coris became naturalized citizens in 1928. In 1931 they moved to Washington University, St. Louis, Missouri, where they joined the department of pharmacology (1931-46) and later the department of biochemistry (from 1946); Gerty Cori held the post of research associate in both departments. Their discoveries brought the Coris the 1947 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine (shared with Bernardo A. Houssay of Argentina); Gerty Cori was the first American woman to receive a Nobel Prize in the sciences. In 1947 she was named professor of biochemistry at Washington University, a post she held for the rest of her life. From 1950 she sat on the board of directors of the National Science Foundation. The Coris' subsequent work led to the complete elucidation of the molecular structure of glycogen in 1952. Gerty Cori also contributed greatly to the understanding of glycogen storage diseases of children. She died in St. Louis, Missouri, on October 26, 1957.

Gerty Theresa Radnitz Cori
by Seymour "Sy" Brody Dr. Gerty Theresa Radnitz Cori was the first American woman to receive the Nobel Prize for Medicine and Physiology, in 1947, which was shared with her husband, Dr. Carl F. Cori, and Dr. B.A. Houssay of Argentina. Dr. Cori was born on August 15, 1896, in Prague, which was part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. She was the oldest of three daughters of Martha and Otto Radnitz, manager of a sugar refinery. The family was Jewish and she was educated by private tutors. At age sixteen and influenced by her uncle, who was a professor of pediatrics at the University of Prague, Cori decided to study medicine. She graduated with a medical doctor's degree in 1920. When she was attending medical school, she met Carl Ferdinand Cori, a fellow student. They both shared many common outdoor activities and they both had a curious interest in laboratory research. They were married on August 5, 1920, and accepted positions at the University of Vienna. They decided to pursue careers in medical research, rather than medical practice. In 1922, they both emigrated to the United States to join the staff of Buffalo's New York Institute of Malignant Diseases. He became an assistant pathologist and she was appointed as an assistant biochemist. They both became United States citizens in 1928 and in 1936, they had their only child, Carl Thomas. While at Buffalo, they concentrated on studying the absorption of sugars from the intestines and the effects of insulin epinephrine on the fate of absorbed carbohydrates and or glycerin formation and degradation.

After they joined the Washington University School of Medicine in 1931, their discovery of the mechanism for blood glucose regulation earned them the Nobel Prize in 1947. Gerty Cori was the first American woman to be so honored. In addition, six eventual Nobel laureates received training in their laboratory. Carl Cori said of their remarkable collaboration: "Our efforts have been largely complementary, and one without the other would not have gone so far..."

Gerty Radnitz Cori Born: Major discipline: Biochemistry Died: Minor discipline:
Gerty Radnitz Cori was the first American woman to win a Nobel Prize in Science. She was born in Prague, Czechoslovakia on August 15, 1896. At the age of 18, she entered medical school at the Carl Ferdinand University of Prague. Here she became fascinated with biochemistry because it applied chemistry to solve biological problems. In 1920 she married Carl Cori, whom she had known since the beginning of medical school. Unstable political and economic conditions in Europe forced them to emigrate. In 1922, Carl Cori took a position at the New York State Institute for the Study of Malignant Diseases in Buffalo. Gerty arrived six months later, after Carl had found her a position as an assistant pathologist at the Institute. They became U.S. citizens in 1931.

YEAR ACHIEVEMENT Dr. Gerty Cori was the first woman in America to receive a Nobel Prize in science.
Gerty Theresa Radnitz Cori and her husband, Dr. Carl Cori, were the first married couple to receive a Nobel Prize in science. Gerty Cori was only the third woman ever to win a Nobel Prize, and was the first woman in America to do so. Gerty Cori was born in Prague, Czechoslovakia in 1896, to Otto Radnitz and Martha Neustadt. Her uncle, a professor of pediatrics, encouraged her to attend medical school, and she was admitted to the German University of Prague, where there were only a few female students. She graduated with her M.D. degree in 1920, along with her classmate Carl Cori. They married soon after graduation, and were hired to work in clinics in Vienna. Realizing that Europe was heading for war, they began applying for work overseas. In 1922, they moved to Buffalo, New York, where Carl took a position at the State Institute for the Study of Malignant Diseases (later the Roswell Park Memorial Institute), and Gerty Cori was hired as an assistant pathologist. While at Roswell they were discouraged from working together, but did so anyway, devoting their efforts to how energy is produced and transmitted in the human body. Specializing in biochemistry, they began studying how sugar (glucose) is metabolized. The Coris decided to leave Roswell soon after publishing their work on carbohydrate metabolism, mainly because Roswell's primary focus was cancer research. But though they had developed the Cori cycle together, Carl Cori was the one to receive job offers at universities. Although faculty at the University of Rochester warned Gerty Cori that she might ruin her husband's career, the couple refused to stop working together. Both Cornell University and the University of Toronto refused to hire Gerty Cori even while they tried to persuade her husband to take up an appointment, so the couple moved to St. Louis in 1931, where Carl had been offered the chair of the pharmacology department at Washington University School of Medicine. Gerty Cori was offered a position as a research assistant, despite her partnership role in the discovery of the Cori cycle.

Their discoveries earned them (with Bernardo Houssay ) the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1947. They met while students at the German University of Prague and were married in 1920, receiving their medical degrees the same year. Emigrating to the United States in 1922, they joined the staff of the Institute for the Study of Malignant Disease, Buffalo, N.Y. (1922-31). As faculty members of the Washington University medical school, St. Louis (from 1931), they discovered (1936) the activated intermediate, glucose 1-phosphate (phosphate bound to a specific carbon atom on the glucose molecule), known as the "Cori ester." They demonstrated that it represents the first step in the conversion into glucose of the animal storage carbohydrate glycogen, large quantities of which are found in the liver, andbecause the reaction is reversiblein some cases the last step in the conversion of blood glucose to glycogen.
