A Love Affair with Vitamins

Matthews

The Journal for Biological Chemistry has published Emerita Professor Rowena G. Matthews' A Love Affair with Vitamins in the July edition as part of its Reflections series. In it Matthews tells of her progress from helping her biologist father preparing beef heart mitochondria for his research, to Radcliff in the 50s, and later Ann Arbor for thesis research with Vincent Massey and postdoctoral work with Charles Williams, who with Jud Coon convinced a then cautious University to hire her on as a Assistant Professor. Matthews’ subsequent adventures in biology make for compelling reading. Download the pfd.
