When I went to the University, the medical school was the only place where one could hope to find the means to study life, its nature, its origins, and its ills. ↗
So I applied to medical school and received a scholarship at Washington University in St. Louis. Washington University turned out to be a lucky choice. The faculty was scholarly and dedicated and accessible to students. ↗
In my second year, after moving to the Medical School, I began the courses of Anatomy and Physiology. I had begun to see that I was interested in cells and their functions. ↗
My mother was told she couldn't go to medical school because she was a woman and a Jew. So she became a teacher in the New York City public school system. ↗

I set up a laboratory in the Department of Physiology in the Medical School in South Africa and begin to try to find a bacteriophage system which we might use to solve the genetic code. ↗
