Extractions: Woodward has been unusually fortunate in the outstanding personal qualities and scientific capabilities of a large proportion of his more than two hundred and fifty collaborators in Cambridge, and latterly in Basel, of whom more than half have assumed academic positions. He has also on numerous occasions enjoyed exceptionally stimulating and fruitful collaboration with fellow-scientists in laboratories other than his own. His interests in chemistry are wide, but the main arena of his first-hand engagement has been the investigation of natural products - a domain he regards as endlessly fascinating in itself, and one which presents unlimited and unparalleled opportunities for the discovery, testing, development and refinement of general principles. Prof. Woodward holds more than twenty honorary degrees of which only a few are listed here: D.Sc. Wesleyan University, 1945; D. Sc. Harvard University, 1957; D. Sc. University of Cambridge (England), 1964; D. Sc. Brandeis University, 1965; D. Sc. Israel Institute of Technology (Haifa), 1966; D.Sc. University of Western Ontario (Canada), 1968;D.Sc. Universite de Louvain (Belgium), 1970.

Extractions: Research on fixing the atomic weights of chemical elements Educated at home by his mother, a poet unimpressed by the local public schools, Richards started attending lectures at the University of Pennsylvania when he was 13. At 17 he graduated from college at the head of his class. He became interested in atomic weights (weights of the elements) as a graduate student at Harvard, and eventually discovered and corrected crucial and misleading errors in earlier calculations. George Minot 1885-1950 Research on liver treatment of the anemias (with William P. Murphy) The scion of a Boston Brahmin family, the at-first unambitious Minot eventually became a pioneer in the field of hematology, the study of blood. While researching the deadly blood disease known as pernicious anemia, Minot himself was stricken by diabetes. It was the discovery of insulin in 1921 that allowed him to continue his research, which ultimately led to his own discovery of the cure for pernicious anemia. William P. Murphy 1892-1982

Extractions: R.B. Woodward, 1966 By courtesy of the Harvard University News Service (b. April 10, 1917, Boston, Mass., U.S.d. July 8, 1979, Cambridge, Mass.), American chemist best known for his syntheses of complex organic substances, including quinine (1944), cholesterol and cortisone (1951), and vitamin B (1971). He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1965. Woodward was attracted to chemistry at an early age and entered the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1933. Involvement with chemistry at the expense of other subjects caused his suspension for a semester but also resulted in his collaboration on three research papers. Awarded the B.S. degree in 1936 and the Ph.D. degree a year later, he immediately became associated with Harvard, becoming professor (1950-60) and Donner professor of science (1960-79). He was uniquely honoured by the founding of the Woodward Research Institute in Basel, Switz., by the Ciba pharmaceutical company in 1963. He then directed research activities both in Cambridge and in Basel. Woodward was married in 1938 to Irja Pullman and in 1946 to Eudoxia Muller; he had three daughters and a son. The chemistry of natural products served as the base for Woodward's broad engagement in organic chemistry. The first result of this involvement was a series of four papers (1940-42), based on work in the steroid field, delineating rules for the correlation of ultraviolet spectra with molecular structure. His early recognition that physical measurement had greater power than chemical reaction to reveal structural features led to his development of those rules
