Ulf Svante von Eulerpharmacologist. He shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1970 for his work on neurotransmitters.[3][4][5][6][7]
Life
Ulf Svante von Euler-Chelpin was born in
Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1929, and his maternal grandfather was Per Teodor Cleve, Professor of Chemistry at the Uppsala University, and the discoverer of the chemical elements thulium and holmium
.
Von Euler-Chelpin studied neuromuscular transmission with G. L. Brown in 1938. From 1946 to 1947, he worked with Eduardo Braun-Menéndez in the Instituto de Biología y Medicina Experimental in Buenos Aires, which was founded by Bernardo Houssay
. His unerring instinct to work with important scientific leaders and fields was to be proved by the fact that Dale, Heymans, Hill and Houssay went to receive the Nobel prize in physiology or medicine.
In 1981, von Euler became a founding member of the World Cultural Council.[9]
From 1930 to 1957, von Euler was married to Jane Anna Margarethe Sodenstierna (1905-2004). Second World War worked at Radio Königsberg, broadcasting German propaganda to neutral Sweden. [11]
Research
His short stay as a
noradrenaline
(1946).
In 1939 von Euler was appointed full professor of physiology at the Karolinska Institute, where he remained until 1971. His early collaboration with Liljestrand had led to an important discovery, which was named the
Euler–Liljestrand mechanism (a physiological arterial shunt in response to the decrease in local oxygenation of the lungs
).
From 1946 on, however, when
Foreign Member of the Royal Society (ForMemRS) in 1973.[1]
