    Extractions: Message from the Director General Vision and Strategic Direction of WIPO General Information Program and Budget ... About WIPO Women Inventors of World Renown A large number of women inventors have received world recognition through various international awards. Some of the most prestigious of these awards, and of widest geographical scope, are the Nobel Prize, induction to the National Inventors Hall of Fame (U.S.A.) and the WIPO Gold Medal for Inventors. Nobel Prize Ten women, from a total of 448 scientists, have been awarded a Nobel Prize in the sciences (chemistry, physics and physiology or medicine), from 1901 to 1997. Among them, Marie Curie is the only person up to date to have twice received a Nobel Prize in the sciences, each time in a different field of specialization: in Physics, in 1903, and in Chemistry, in 1911.

According to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, in the U.S. about 2,500 children a year are diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. It is the most common childhood cancer and usually strikes two- to five-year-olds. As chemist Gertrude B. Elion said in her Nobel Prize acceptance lecture in 1988, the median life expectancy for children with acute leukemia in the late 1940s was between three and four months. Long-term survival rates are now around 80%. The increase in cure rate "is entirely [associated] with drug therapynot with radiation therapy, not with surgery," says Richard M. Weinshilboum, an internist and researcher in the department of molecular pharmacology and experimental therapeutics at the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine in Rochester, Minn. The first effective leukemia drug was 6-mercaptopurine, developed by Elion and George H. Hitchings, who worked together for 30 years at Burroughs Wellcome Research Laboratories. They shared the Nobel Prize in 1988. The Nobel assembly said their work has "fundamental significance," as they pioneered what is now known as rational drug design: the targeted synthesis of molecules with desired structures.

    Extractions: From American Association for Cancer Research The American Association for Cancer Research (AACR), the nation's largest and oldest professional society of basic, translational, and clinical cancer research scientists, is now accepting applications for the AACR-Gertrude B. Elion Cancer Research Award and AACR Career Development Awards in 2004. The AACR-Gertrude B. Elion Cancer Research Award was established in honor of the late Nobel laureate Dr. Gertrude B. Elion, Past President and Honorary Member of the AACR. Dr. Elion was a Scientist Emeritus at Glaxo Wellcome, where she worked for almost 40 years. According to JP Garnier, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer, GlaxoSmithKline, "Our support of the AACR-Gertrude B. Elion Cancer Research Award is one of the ways that we acknowledge the tremendous research efforts by oncology scientists everywhere to help bring hope to cancer patients as we relentlessly pursue cures." This Award fosters meritorious basic, translational, or clinical cancer research by a tenure-track scientist at the level of Assistant Professor at an academic institution anywhere in the world. The one-year award carries a grant of $50,000 for salary, laboratory supplies, and limited domestic travel. The winner will be required to give a presentation of their research at the 2005 AACR Annual Meeting (April 16-20, 2005, Anaheim, California). Candidates must have completed postdoctoral studies or clinical fellowships no later than July 1 of the application year (2003), and ordinarily not more than five years prior to the award year (2004).

The AACR and the National Foundation for Cancer Research (NFCR) established this Professorship in 2000 to honor Tamara and Franklin Salisbury, Sr., best known for founding the NFCR in 1973. It recognizes a senior scientist at the level of associate professor or professor who is currently engaged in an active research career anywhere in the world and who has demonstrated extraordinary achievement in basic cancer research. It is awarded every year to an individual nominated by his or her peers, who shows promise for continued substantive contributions to basic cancer research. The Professorship is intended to foster the research productivity of the recipient by enabling the scientist so honored to devote more time to basic research, through a one-year grant of $50,000.

    Extractions: February 23, 1999 By LAWRENCE K. ALTMAN ertrude B. Elion, a pioneer in drug research who shared a Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1988, died on Sunday in Chapel Hill, N.C., where she lived. She was 81. Ms. Elion developed drugs for use in a vast array of conditions. They included drugs for herpes, leukemia, malaria, gout, immune disorders, and AIDS, and immune suppressants to overcome rejection of donated organs in transplant surgery. In perfecting one compound after another, Ms. Elion worked for four decades with Dr. George H. Hitchings, who died a year ago. Ms. Elion broke down gender barriers in the male-dominated world of scientific research, becoming one of the rare women to win a Nobel Prize and, even rarer, a scientist who did not have a doctorate. Ms. Elion shared the Prize with Hitchings, who hired her as a $50-a-week assistant in 1944. Also sharing the Prize was Sir James Black of Britain, who discovered two classes of drugs, beta blockers, for high blood pressure and heart disease, and H-2 antagonists, for ulcers. Seldom does the Nobel committee in Stockholm honor employees of pharmaceutical companies, but all three that year worked or had worked for such a company. Ms. Elion and Hitchings throughout their careers collaborated at the company known today as Glaxo Wellcome. In awarding the Prize to the three scientists, the Nobel committee said their work "had a more fundamental significance than their discovery of individual drugs."

Elion patented the leukemia-fighting drug 6-mercaptopurine in 1954 and has made a number of significant contributions to the medical field. Dr. Elion’s research led to the development of Imuran, a drug that aids the body in accepting transplanted organs, and Zovirax, a drug used to fight herpes. Including 6-mercaptopurine, Elion’s name is attached to some 45 patents. In 1988 she was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine with George Hitchings and Sir James Black. Dr. Elion was inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame in 1991, she continued to be an advocate for medical and scientific advancement until her death in February of 1999.
