En 1961 obtuvo el Premio Nobel de Química por sus quince años de investigaciones sobre la serie de reacciones conocidas como ciclo de Calvin, es decir, los procesos bioquímicos de la fase oscura (que no precisan luz) de la fotosíntesis de las plantas, en los que se produce la fijación del dióxido de carbono y su reducción gracias a una aportación protónica determinada. Su trabajo se apoyó en gran medida en el uso de las nuevas herramientas de análisis desarrolladas durante la guerra, como la cromatografía y el marcaje radiactivo con el isótopo carbono-14.

    http://www.lbl.gov/Science-Articles/Research-Review/Magazine/1997/story12.html
    
    Extractions: A Man of Exceptional Curiosity By Lynn Yarris One of Berkeley Lab's greatest scientists, Melvin Calvin, the man who unlocked the secrets of photosynthesis, died on January 7, 1997, after years of failing health. He was 85. A member of the faculty at UC Berkeley since 1937, and one of the first chemists to join Ernest O. Lawrence's Radiation Laboratory, Calvin received the 1961 Nobel prize in chemistry for identifying the path of carbon in photosynthesis. Shortly thereafter he established the Chemical Biodynamics Division, the successor to today's Structural Biology Division, which he directed for 20 years. Throughout his distinguished career, Calvin was the recipient of a great many awards and honors, including the National Medal of Science, which he received from President Bush in 1989, the Priestly Medal from the American Chemical Society, the Davy Medal from the Royal Society of London, and the Gold Medal from the American Institute of Chemists. Calvin was born on April 8, 1911 in Saint Paul, Minnesota. He earned his undergraduate degrees from the Michigan College of Mining and Technology in 1931 and his Ph.D. in chemistry from the University of Minnesota in 1935. Following post-doctoral studies at the University of Manchester in England, Calvin was invited to join the UCB faculty by the illustrious chemist Gilbert Lewis who introduced him to Ernest Lawrence. According to legend, on the day of the Japanese surrender, Lawrence told Calvin, "Now is the time to do something useful with radioactive carbon," the isotope of carbon that had been discovered in 1940 at the 60-Inch Cyclotron. In response, Calvin organized a team of Rad Lab researchers to study photosynthesis, the process by which green plants convert sunlight energy into chemical energy, releasing oxygen into the atmosphere.

    Extractions: Melvin Calvin was one of the world's outstanding scientists, as attested by many honors, both national and international, including the 1961 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Not only did he directly add to scientific knowledge, but, as a dynamic lecturer, teacher, and research director, he served as an inspiration for many other productive scientists. He also contributed to scientific progress through his participation in scientific societies and through his service on scientific committees and commissions. He served the United States government in numerous scientific advisory roles. And he served the University of California with enthusiasm in the full range of responsibilities implied by the position of University Professor to which he was appointed in 1971. Calvin's expertise extended well beyond photosynthesis. He made significant contributions to such diverse fields as electron affinity of halogen atoms, chemical methods for extracting oxygen from air, color, paramagnetism of the triplet state, ligand complexing of metal ions, organic compounds in meteorites and moon rocks, organic evolution, origin of life, the Rh negative factor, cancer, oil from plants, and artificial photosynthesis. He gave invited lectures in many countries. His publications totaled seven books and nearly 600 papers. In 1964 a special building was constructed on the eastern side of the campus to house Calvin's Laboratory of Chemical Biodynamics (now the Calvin Laboratory). In order to foster interdisciplinary interactions, Calvin specified a unique architectural form. The building's circular design and open lab spaces for jointly used equipment was intended to maximize interaction among the students and researchers. At the center of the radial focus was a coffee table and blackboards, both of which stimulated interdisciplinary discussions. Chemistry, physics, and biological subjects, ranging from rat-brain biochemistry and behavior to photosynthesis were all part of the intellectual fabric of this laboratory. Friday morning seminars brought all these groups together. In the early years everyone brought their notebooks and anyone might be called upon to give the seminar, which created a prepared, if anxious, room of students and researchers. In later years Calvin gave the presenter 15 hours notice.

    Extractions: MELVIN CALVIN died in Berkeley on January 8, 1997, at the age of eighty-five from a heart attack following years of declining health. He was widely known for his mental intensity, skill in asking questions, and impressive presentation of his research and ideas. During the period 1946-57 Calvin directed laboratories utilizing radiocarbon-14 and other radioisotopes in the University of California's Radiation Laboratory, founded by Ernest Orlando Lawrence. Among his achievements was the delineation of the path of carbon in photosynthesis, for which he was awarded a Nobel Prize in 1961. He was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 1954. Among his many honors were the Priestley Medal of the American Chemical Society in 1978, the U.S. National Medal of Science in 1989, and the Davy Medal of the Royal Society in 1964. Born in St. Paul, Minnesota, Melvin Calvin was the son of a Lithuanian immigrant father and a mother from Russian Georgia; they ran a small grocery store in Detroit, where young Melvin helped while going to Central High School. He became intrigued by the products on sale in the store, began to wonder what they were made of, and early on recognized the importance of chemistry in their makeup. Deciding to be a chemist, Melvin received his B.S. in 1931 at the Michigan College of Science and Technology (now Michigan Technological University), where he was the college's first chemistry major. He went on to take a Ph.D. with George C. Glockler at the University of Minnesota in 1935.
