    Extractions: Rita Levi-Montalcini, 1986 AP/Wide World Photos (1909- ), neurologist Rita Levi-Montalcini was born on April 22, 1909, in Turin, Italy. She studied medicine at the University of Turin and did research there on the effects that peripheral tissues have on nerve cell growth. Forced into hiding in Florence during the German occupation of Italy (1943-45) because of her Jewish ancestry, she was able to resume her research at Turin after the war. In 1947 she accepted a post at Washington University, St. Louis, Missouri, with the zoologist Viktor Hamburger, who was studying the growth of nerve tissue in chick embryos. Levi-Montalcini held dual citizenship in Italy and the United States. In 1948 it was discovered in Hamburger's laboratory that a variety of mouse tumor spurred nerve growth when implanted into chick embryos. Levi-Montalcini and Hamburger traced the effect to a substance in the tumor that they named nerve-growth factor (NGF). Levi-Montalcini further showed that the tumor caused similar cell growth in a nerve-tissue culture kept alive in the laboratory, and Stanley Cohen, who by then had joined her at Washington University, was able to isolate the nerve-growth factor from the tumor. NGF was the first of many cell-growth factors to be found in the bodies of animals. It plays an important role in the growth of nerve cells and fibers in the peripheral nervous system. Levi-Montalcini remained active in the field, working at Washington University until 1961 and afterward at the Institute of Cell Biology in Rome. In 1986 she shared with Cohen the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine for her work on nerve-growth factor. An autobiographical work

    Extractions: Levi-Montalcini was born and educated in Turin and began her research there. When the Fascist anti-Semitic laws forced her to leave the university 1939, she constructed a home laboratory. After World War II she moved to the USA and was at the Washington University in St Louis 1947-81, becoming professor 1958. In 1981 she went to Rome. Levi-Montalcini first discovered nerve-growth factor in the salivary glands of developing mouse embryos, and later in many tissues. She established that it was chemically a protein, and analysed the mechanism of its action. Her work has contributed to the understanding of some neurological diseases, tissue regeneration, and cancer mechanisms.

    Extractions: Rita Levi-Montalcini Even though Rita Levi-Montalcini faced deep persecution as a Jew in Italy during World War II, she pursued her research on the growth of nerve fibers. She studied chicken embryos to determine the effect that amputations of limbs has on the nervous system in a secret laboratory in her home. It was there that she discovered what scientists now call the "trophic Factor" that causes nerve fibers to spread. In 1946, she accepted an invitation to continue her research at Washington University in Saint Louis, Missouri. Working there, Dr. Rita Levi-Montalcini was instrumental in discovering NGF (nerve growth factor), a substance found in malignant tumors that causes nerve fibers to grow rapidly. In 1986, Dr. Rita Levi-Montalcini received due recognition when she, along with her colleague, Dr. Stanley Cohen, won the Nobel Prize in medicine for the discoveries of NGF and of EGF (epidermal growth factor), which is used in the treatment of severe burns.

    Extractions: American Biologist/Nobel Laureate Nobel Lecture, December 8, 1986 at Stockholm Concert Hall, Stockholm, Sweden Neurogenesis and its early experimental approach "Embryogenesis is in some way a model system. It has always been distinguished by the exactitude, even punctitio, of its anatomical descriptions. An experiment by one of the great masters of embryology could be made the text of a discourse on scientific method. But something is wrong, or has been wrong. There is no theory of development in the sense in which Mendelism is a theory that accounts for the results of breeding experiments. There has therefore been little sense of progression or timeliness about embryological research. Of many papers delivered at embryological meetings, however good they may be in themselves, one too often feels that they might have been delivered five years beforehand without making anyone much the wiser, or deferred for five years without making anyone conscious of a great loss." This feeling of frustration, so incisively conveyed by these considerations by P. Medawar, pervaded in the forties the field of experimental embryology which had been enthusiastically acclaimed in the mid-thirties, when the upper lip of the amphibian blastopore brought this area of research to the forefront of the biological stage. The side branch of experimental neuroembryology, which had stemmed out from the common tree and was entirely devoted to the study of the trophic interrelations between neuronal cell populations and between these and the innervated organs and tissues, was then in its initial vigorous growth phase. It in turn suffered from a sharp decrease in the enthusiasm that had inflamed the pioneers in this field, ever since R.G. Harrison delivered his celebrated lecture on this topic at the Royal Society in London in 1935.
