    Extractions: After his education in New York public schools, Edelman attended Ursinus College in Pennsylvania and received the B.S. degree, magna cum laude, in 1950. He then attended the Medical School of the University of Pennsylvania where he received the M.D. degree in 1954. In the succeeding year, he was a Medical House Officer at the Massachusetts General Hospital. He became a Captain in the U.S. Army Medical Corps in 1955 and practiced general medicine at a Station Hospital connected with the American Hospital in Paris, France. In 1957, he joined the Rockefeller Institute as a graduate fellow in the laboratory of Dr. Henry G. Kunkel. After receiving the Ph.D. degree in 1960, he remained at the Rockefeller Institute as Assistant Dean of Graduate Studies and started work in his own laboratory. In 1963, he became Associate Dean of Graduate Studies, a position from which he retired in 1966. From that time to the present, he has been a Professor of the Rockefeller University. Edelman is a member of the National Academy of Sciences, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the American Society of Biological Chemists and the American Association of Immunologists, as well as a number of other scientific societies. He was a member of the Biophysics and Biophysical Chemistry Study Section of the National Institutes of Health from 1964 to 1967. Presently, he is an Associate of the Neurosciences Research Program at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, a member of the Board of Governors of the Weizmann Institute of Science and a member of the Advisory Board of the Basel Institute for Immunology.

    Extractions: Gerald M. Edelman with a model of the gamma globulin molecule, 1972 UPI/Corbis-Bettmann (b. July 1, 1929, New York, N.Y., U.S.), American biochemist whose contributions in elucidating the chemical structure of antibodies won him (with Rodney Porter ) the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1972. He also proposed an influential theory of change within the human nervous system. Edelman studied at the University of Pennsylvania Medical School (M.D., 1954). After two years in the Army Medical Corps in Paris, he went to Rockefeller University in New York City, earning his Ph.D. in 1960 and then joining the faculty. Working at Rockefeller, Edelman and his research team succeeded (1969) in constructing a precise model of an entire antibody molecule, which was found to be a four-chain structure consisting of more than 1,300 amino acids. Edelman and his team were then able to identify the precise locations on the molecule where antigenic binding occurs. Edelman became a full professor at Rockefeller University in 1966. His subsequent research focused on morphogenesis i.e.

    http://www.scripps.edu/nb/chair.html
    
    Extractions: dqmcodebase = "/scripts/" //script folder location Gerald M. Edelman, M.D., Ph.D. Development and morphogenesis require repeated rounds of differential gene expression. A variety of factors regulate this expression, including elements within the genes themselves and protein factors that bind to the elements. In examining such elements in genes for cell adhesion molecules, Fred Jones and his colleagues discovered a homeobox protein, Barx2, that affects a wide variety of differentiation processes. Exploration of the activity of Barx2 and its targets by Robyn Meech has opened new front lines related to breast cancer, muscle development, and chondrogenesis. In examining the messenger RNAs expressed in response to neural cell adhesion, Vince Mauro noted that many mRNAs had sequences that matched or were complementary to ribosomal RNA. By analyzing a subset of these sequences, he and his colleagues defined the characteristics of novel sequences within mRNAs that can connect the translation machinery to the message in the absence of the traditional cap sequence. These internal ribosome entry sites (IRESs) were known for viral RNAs but had not been extensively defined in cellular mRNAs. Dr. Mauro and his colleagues went on to show that cellular and viral IRESs differ; the cellular sites are made up of small modules, and the action of cellular IRESs does not necessarily depend on specific secondary structures in the mRNA. Regulation of translation appears to play an important role in the nervous system, and IRESs may play a special role in the functioning of the synapse. Peter Vanderklish and his colleagues have been studying the factors involved in synaptic events thought to provide the basis of memory and learning in the area of the brain called the hippocampus. Translation of mRNA in dendrites plays a special role in this process. Dr. Vanderklish and his colleagues found that specific messages at the synapse are differentially translated depending on whether the messages are regulated by cap- or IRES-dependent processes. In addition, these researchers are working with Bruce Cunningham and his colleagues to define and characterize granules containing ribosomes, proteins, and mRNAs that are transported from the cell body to the synaptic area in order to allow translation to occur in response to synaptic activity.

    Extractions: Gerald M. Edelman - Author Buy now View basket Book: Paperback In this, his first book aimed at the general reader, Gerald Edelman describes how consciousness arises in complex brains and how it is related to evolution, to the development of the self, and to the origins of feelings, learning, and memory. Edelman's theories offer a solution to the mind-body problem. An understanding of the workings of consciousness in scientific terms would be of enormous value in all areas of science, in medicine and psychiatry, and in the humanities. Email Alerts

Edelman, Gerald M. Edelman, Gerald M. , born in 1929, American biochemist, neuroscientist, and winner of the 1972 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine. He shared the Prize with British biochemist Rodney R. Porter for their discoveries concerning the chemical structure of antibodies. Edelman was born in New York City on July 1, 1929. He earned a B.S. degree in chemistry from Ursinus College, in Collegeville, Pennsylvania, in 1950, and his M.D. degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 1954. In 1955 Edelman entered the United States Army Medical Corps and served in a military hospital in Paris. Edelman received his Ph.D. degree in biochemistry and immunology from Rockefeller University in 1960 and remained there as a faculty member. In 1992 he became chairman of the department of neurobiology at the Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, California. Edelman is a member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences and a foreign member of the Academy of Sciences of the Institute of France. Antibodies, also called immunoglobulins (Ig), are blood proteins that help eliminate antigens, foreign substances such as bacteria or toxins. The antibody-antigen reaction is the central mechanism in the body's system of self-defense. In the 1950s, little was known about the chemical structure of immunoglobulins and exactly how they were able to recognize the huge number of antigens that the body encountered. In England, Porter, who had been studying rabbit immunoglobulin, proposed its structure was a single chain of

    Extractions: Bright Air, Brilliant Fire: On the Matter of the Mind Edelman has asked the question: should we attempt to construct models of functioning minds or should we attempt to construct models of brains which through interactions with their surroundings can develop minds? Edelman's answer is that we should make model brains and I think Edelman is on the right track. Unfortunately, most folks who are trying to figure out the brain can't seem to figure out Edelman. That's too bad. So, I must start with my spin on the Study of Edelman: Dealing with Edelman's writing My comments on Edelman can be found at the links listed below,
