Extractions: Sir Bernard Katz was a German-born biophysicist, noted for his work on nerve biochemistry and the pineal gland. He shared the Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine in 1970. He was knighted in 1970. Katz's work had immediate influence on the study of organophosphates and organochlorines, the basis of new post-war study for nerve agents and pesticides, as he determined that the complex enzyme cycle was easily disrupted. He went on to study the biochemistry of the pineal gland, especially the production of melatonin (discovered in 1948). photo December 2002

Extractions: Bernard Katz was born on March 26th, 1911, in Leipzig, Germany, of Russian Jewish origin, only son of Max Katz and Eugenie Rabinowitz. His school education was at the Albert Gymnasium in Leipzig (1921-1929). He studied Medicine at the University of Leipzig , 1929-1934; received the Siegfried Garten Prize for physiological research in 1933 and obtained his M.D. in 1934. He left Germany in February 1935 and was accepted as a Ph. D. student by Professor A.V. Hill at University College , London. Katz worked in A.V. Hill's laboratory until August 1939. He received a Ph.D. (London University) and a Beit Memorial Research Fellowship in 1938. In 1942, he was awarded the degree of Doctor of Science (London University).

Extractions: Bernard Katz was born in 1911 in Leipzig,Germany. The German-born British physiologist investigated the functioning of nerves and muscles. His studies on the release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which carries impulses from nerve fibre to muscle fibre, won him a share (with Julius Axelrod and Ulf von Euler ) of the 1970 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine. After receiving a medical degree from the University of Leipzig in 1934, Katz emigrated to England, where he pursued advanced studies at University College, London, taking a Ph.D. in 1938. Upon receiving a Carnegie fellowship, he studied in Australia (1939-42) and then served in the Royal Australian Air Force during World War II. He returned to University College in 1946 and from 1952 to 1978 was professor and head of the biophysics department. Katz was knighted in 1969. Katz wrote Electric Excitation of Nerve (1939), Nerve, Muscle and Synapse (1966), and The Release of Neural Transmitter Substances (1969). He and his associates made numerous discoveries concerning the chemistry of nerve transmission, including the role of calcium ions in promoting the release of neurotransmitter substances and the fact that quanta of these substances are being released constantly at random intervals.

Extractions: Sir Bernard Katz, the biophysicist who was developed the quantal theory of acetylcholine release at the neuromuscular junction, died last week in London (April 20, 2003) at the age of 92, after a distinguished career at the forefront of British neurophysiology. University of Leipzig in 1929. His interest in scientific investigation became apparent early, when he combined research with his preclinical studies. After graduating, he moved to England to escape anti-Semitism after Adolf Hitler's rise to power in 1933. He joined A.V. Hill's laboratory at University College London (UCL) and earned his PhD. After several years working in Australia with John Carew Eccles, another renowned physiologist, and later with the Royal Australian Air Force as a radar officer, Katz returned to UCL, becoming a member of the dynamic, post-war neurophysiology group working in the United Kingdom. He succeeded Hill as a professor of biophysics at UCL in 1952, presiding over a highly active department until he retired in 1978. His research work deciphered how nerve impulses are transmitted to muscle fibers to achieve muscle contraction. He established the quantal hypothesis of neuromuscular transmission in which quanta, or packets, of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine are released at the neuromuscular junction, with each quantum triggering a very brief signal in the target muscle fiber. The significance of Katz's work was recognized when he was named co-winner of the 1970
Extractions: March 26, 1911 - April 20, 2003 From The Independent, Saturday 26 April 2003 Professor Sir Bernard Katz Biophysicist who arrived in England with £4 and went on to win a Nobel Prize Bernard Katz was an icon of post-war biophysics. He was on of the last of the generation of distinguished physiologists who were refugees from the Third Reich and who contributed immeasurably t the scientific reputation of their adopted country. In 1970 he won the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine. He was born and brought up in Leipzig, though he was never a German citizen. His father, Max, was a fur merchant who had left Russia in 1904, and met his wife, Eugenie Rabinowitz, who was of Polish origin, in Germany. Until he was six, Katz was a citizen of Tsarist Russia, but then, because of the Russian Revolution, became stateless, and remained so until he was 30 when he became a naturalized British citizen. In Leipzig, Katz was brought up in what he himself described as a "completely 'unorthodox' and liberal way", but nevertheless had his first experience of being an alien Jew in 1920, at the age of nine, when he was refused entrance to the Schiller Real-Gymnasium, and consequently had a classical education at the König Albert Gymnasium. There he chose to learn Latin and Greek rather than the more mathematical option (because, he said, it gave him more time to play chess in the cafes of Leipzig), though he acquired a good level of mathematics anyway.

Katz, Bernard katz, sir bernard (1911 ). British biophysicist. He shared the 1970Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine for work on the biochemistry http://www.cartage.org.lb/en/themes/Biographies/MainBiographies/k/Katz/1.html
Extractions: Katz was born in Leipzig, studied medicine at the university there, and then did postgraduate work at University College, London. Having done research in Australia 1939-42, he then served in the Royal Australian Air Force until the end of World War II, after which he returned to the UK. He spent the rest of his academic career at University College, London, becoming professor 1952. In the 1940s, Katz joined in the Nobel-prizewinning research of Alan Hodgkin on the electrochemical behaviour of nerve membranes. During the 1950s, Katz found that minute amounts of acetylcholine were randomly released by nerve endings at the neuromuscular junction, giving rise to very small electrical potentials; he also found that the size of the potential was always a multiple of a certain minimum value. These findings led him to suggest that acetylcholine was released in discrete 'packets' (analogous to quanta) of a few thousand molecules each, and that these packets were released relatively infrequently while a nerve was at rest but very rapidly when an impulse arrived at the neuromuscular junction.
