She was the first Black American woman in the United States to earn a Ph.D. in chemistry (awarded by Columbia University in 1947). Daly Daly was designated as a career scientist by the Health Research Council of the City of New York. Daly retired made important contributions in four areas of research: the chemistry of in 1986 from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, and in 1988 established a scholarship for African histones, protein synthesis, the relationships between cholesterol and American chemistry and physics majors at Queens College in memory of her father. In 1999, she was hypertension, and creatine's uptake by muscle cells. recognized by the National Technical Association as one of the top 50 women in Science, Engineering and Technology. Daly's father, Ivan C. Daly, had immigrated from the British West Indies, found work as a postal clerk and eventually married Helen Page of Washington, D.C. Marie Maynard Daly Clark died on October 28, 2003. They lived in New York City, and Marie was born and raised in Corona, Queens. She often visited her maternal grandparents in Washington, where On February 26, 2016, the Founding Principal of the new elementary school P.S.360Q, Mr. R. Emmanuel- she was able to read about scientists and their achievements in her grandfather's extensive library. She was Cooke, announced that the school would be named "The Dr. Marie M. Daly Academy of Excellence" in honor of the Queens resident. especially impressed by Paul de Kruif’s The Microbe Hunters, a work which partially influenced her decision to become a scientist. Research – Histones Daly's interest in science was also influenced by her father, who had attended Cornell University with Daly was particularly interested in nuclear proteins. She developed methods for the fractionation of nuclear intentions of becoming a chemist, but had been unable to complete his education due to a lack of funds. His material and the determination of its composition. It was essential to separate cellular material into all of its components, without destroying or losing any of them. daughter continued her father's legacy by majoring in chemistry. Many years later, she started a Queens College scholarship fund in his honor to assist minority students majoring in chemistry or physics. She studied histones, proteins found in cell nuclei, and was able to show the amino acid composition of Education - Daly attended Hunter College High School, a laboratory high school for girls run by Hunter various histone fractions. She suggested that histones were a mixture of basic components such as lysine and College faculty, where she was also encouraged to pursue chemistry. She then enrolled in Queens College, a arginine. Histones have since been shown to be important in gene expression. Daly's work on histones is now small, fairly new school in Flushing, New York. She lived at home to save money and graduated magna cum considered fundamental. laude from Queens College with her bachelor's degree in chemistry in 1942. Upon graduation, she was Proteins - Daly developed methods for separating out the nuclei of tissues and measuring the base named a Queens College Scholar, an honor that is given to the top 2.5% of the graduating class. composition of purines and pyrimidines in desoxypentose nucleic acids. She concluded, among other things, Labor shortages and the need for scientists to support the war effort enabled Daly to garner fellowships to that "no bases other than adenine, guanine, thymine, and cytosine were present in appreciable amounts." study at New York University and Columbia University for her master's and Ph.D. degrees, respectively. She investigated protein synthesis, including the role of cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein in protein synthesis. Daly worked as a laboratory assistant at Queens College while studying at New York University for her Using radiolabeled amino acid glycine, she was able to measure how protein metabolism changed under master's degree in chemistry, which she completed in 1943. She then became a chemistry tutor at Queens feeding and fasting conditions in mice. This allowed her to monitor the activity of the cytoplasm as the College and enrolled in the doctoral program at Columbia University, where she was supervised by Dr. Mary L. radiolabeled glycine was taken up into the cell nucleus. Caldwell. Caldwell, who had a doctorate in nutrition, helped Daly discover how chemicals produced in the body In 1953, Watson and Crick described the structure of DNA.

Daly completed a thesis entitled A Study of the Products Formed By the Action of Watson cited one of Daly's papers on "The role of ribonucleoprotein in protein synthesis" as contributing to his Pancreatic Amylase on Corn Starch to earn her Ph.D. in chemistry in 1947, and became the first African work. After 1953, the cell nucleus research field was flooded with funding opportunities. American to receive a PHD from Columbia university. Cholesterol and hypertension - Daly and her colleagues did some of the earliest work relating diet to the Career health of the cardiac and circulatory systems. They investigated the impact of cholesterol, sugar, and other Daly worked as a physical science instructor at Howard University, from 1947 to 1948 while simultaneously nutrients. She was the first to establish that hypertension was a precursor to atherosclerosis, and the first to conducting research under the direction of Herman Branson. After being awarded an American Cancer Society identify a relationship between cholesterol and clogged arteries, an important discovery in understanding how grant to support her postdoctoral research, she joined Dr. A. E. Mirsky at the Rockefeller Institute, where they heart attacks occur. studied the cell nucleus and its constituents. At the time, the structure and function of DNA were not yet understood. She was especially interested in how hypertension affects the circulatory system. She showed that high cholesterol intake in diet led to clogged arteries, and that hypertension accelerated this effect. She studied the Daly began working in the College of Physicians and Surgeons at Columbia University in 1955. In collaboration effects of diet on hypertension, and found that both cholesterol and sugar were related to hypertension. with Dr. Quentin B. Deming, she studied arterial metabolism. She continued this work as an assistant Investigating aging, she suggested that smooth muscle hypertrophy due to aging might have a causative role professor of biochemistry and of medicine at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine at Yeshiva University, in hypertension and atherosclerosis. Daly was also an early investigator into the effects of cigarette smoke on where she and Deming moved in 1960. From 1958 to 1963, Daly also served as an investigator for the the lungs and on hypertension. American Heart Association.

  • Marie M. Daly!
    Have you ever thought about how food works in your body? How is your body able to digest a piece of cheese, or pizza, or a carrot? Today we know a lot more about how the body breaks down foods so that they can be used for building blocks and energy. That knowledge wouldn’t be possible without the work of early chemists like Marie M. Daly! Marie M. Daly Chemistry Chemists study materials. They study what substances are made of and how different substances act. Marie M. Daly was the first African-American woman to receive a Ph.D. in chemistry in the United States. A passion for science and a love of learning helped her accomplish such a feat. Dr. Daly was born in Queens, New York, to a family who greatly valued education. Her father studied chemistry at Cornell University. Unfortunately, he had to quit school. But it was his love of science that sparked Daly’s interest. Throughout her career, Dr. Daly made great discoveries in chemistry. While in graduate school, she studied how the body’s chemicals digest food. Scientists now know that every food you eat or beverage you drink is made up of atoms and molecules. As you chew, food is broken down physically by your teeth, tongue, and cheeks. It is broken down chemically by enzymes in your mouth. After you swallow, the food continues through your body and gets broken down by other chemical reactions. Without these chemical reactions, your body wouldn’t grow, because new cells couldn’t made. Eating is enjoyable, but its real purpose is the building blocks and energy your body needs as matter moves through it.

  • Marie Maynard Daly Inherited Her Father's Dream of Being a Chemist
    Marie Maynard Daly inherited her father’s dream of being a chemist. She inspired dreams for future generations as the rst African-American woman to earn a Ph.D. in chemistry, and as a researcher whose work has in uenced everyone’s life. Marie’s father was an immigrant from the British West Indies. He won a scholarship to study chemistry at Cornell University, but room and board were too expensive for him. He dropped out after one semester and eventually moved to the Corona neighborhood in Queens, where Marie was born on April 16, 1921. Photo by Ted Burrows, courtesy of Albert Einstein College of Medicine, D. Samuel Gottesman Library Marie was fascinated by her father’s Archives science books. Her grades allowed her to attend the all-female Hunter College High School, where teachers encouraged her interest in chemistry. After graduation she enrolled in Queens College, part of the City College of New York system. Not only was the tuition free, but the school was close enough to home that Marie could commute to classes. She could thus afford to earn a Bachelor’s degree in 1942. During World War II opportunities opened up for women seeking careers in science while their male counterparts went to war. Marie Daly earned a Master’s degree from New York University while working as a lab assistant at Queens College. She moved on to the Ph.D. program at Columbia University. Mentored by Dr. Mary Letitia Caldwell, who overcame physical disability to become the school’s rst female assistant professor, Daly earned her doctorate in 1948 with a dissertation on a pancreatic enzyme’s effect on digestion.

  • Black History Month Presentations Celebrating Black Chemists
    Black History Month Presentations Celebrating Black Chemists Hartwig Group Group Meeting Presentations February 2021 In honor of Black History Month, we are recognizing and celebrating black chemists. We are doing this to educate ourselves and each other about important chemists that, due to widespread racism and marginalization, may not be recognized to the extent that their contributions warrant. While we must actively recognize and support black chemists all year long, we will take the opportunity of Black History Month to explicitly celebrate specific chemists and their work. Percy Lavon Julian – Early Life and Challenges Percy Julian was born in 1899 and grew up in the Deep South (Alabama). Despite the challenges he would face, Percy’s grandfather, a former slave, encouraged Percy to pursue education. When Percy was growing up, public education ended at 8th grade for African-Americans in Alabama. After 8th grade, Percy was accepted to DePauw University and simultaneously took college and high-school classes while working. African-Americans were forbidden from living in the dorms, so Percy lived in the attic of a white fraternity house. Despite these challenges, Percy excelled in school and remained passionate about chemistry. Percy was later accepted to the Harvard graduate program. Despite excelling with a 4.0 GPA, he was barred from earning a Ph.D. He later earned his Ph.D. from the University of Vienna in Austria. He later held Percy Lavon Julian positions in industry and academia and made several (1899–1975) groundbreaking achievements. Percy Lavon Julian – Accomplishments Synthesized Physostigmine for the first time. Physostigmine is a treatment for glaucoma scarcely available from Nature.
