Alfred Gilman, February 5, 1908—January 13, 1984 By Murdoch Ritchie Biographical Memoirs Alfred Gilman was born in Bridgeport, Connecticut, on February 5, 1908. Gilman was extremely keen on fishing, which helped to nurture the collegial relationship he had with his son Alfred Goodman Gilman (Nobel prizewinner in medicine in 1994), fishing together from a rowboat in Long Island Sound.

Alfred Gilman - Nature Medicine At the age of 10, Alfred Gilman wanted to go to the moon; on a visit to New York's Hayden Planetarium with his parents, he signed up to be an astronaut. In fact, Gilman was heavily influenced by his father, pharmacologist Alfred Gilman, co-author of Goodman and Gilman's world-renowned textbook, The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, now in its 10th edition. As for his cellular biology qualifications, Gilman was awarded the Nobel Prize along with Martin Rodbell in 1994 for the discovery of G proteins and their role in signal transduction. www.nature.com /nm/journal/v7/n8/full/nm0801_879.html   (1010 words)

The Scientist :: Cracking cell signalling by sharing - not publishing, Sep. 13, 2000 This, says Dr Alfred Gilman, chairman of the AFCS steering committee, will be "equivalent to publishing in a scholarly journal" and will give researchers around the world the chance to comment on the findings, theories and discoveries long before the work would have been published by a journal. Gilman, who was awarded a Nobel Prize in 1994 for his work with G-proteins, will head the project from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas. Gilman is convinced the cell biology community will be keen to become involved in the AFCS, "Because they are excited about contributing a fraction of their time to a collaborative attempt to answer questions that they do not believe can be answered in conventional ways." www.biomedcentral.com /news/20000913/05   (642 words)

Our Nobel Prize Winners Gilman’s Nobel-winning studies on “G proteins" discovered a major language that cells use to communicate, that is, how cells receive and respond to external stimuli, thus controlling the most fundamental processes in the human body. Like all of his fellow Nobel laureates at UT Southwestern, Dr. Gilman was less than 40 years old when he did the work for which he won the Nobel Prize. As chairman of pharmacology at UT Southwestern, Dr. Gilman takes a leading role in attracting and guiding the brilliant newcomers who will win the large research grants, make the important discoveries and perhaps become the next Nobel laureates. www.utsouthwestern.edu /utsw/home/about/nobel/index.html   (296 words)

TSRI - News and Publications Gilman, along with fellow researcher Elliott Ross, was a co-discoverer of the G protein--another name for GTPases due to their binding of and regulation by nucleotides GTP and GDP--purifying the first one in 1980. Gilman had taken a novel approach to understanding signaling--duplicating the actions of these signal-transducing proteins in the laboratory instead of trying to observe them in vivo. Bokoch signed up with Gilman at the University of Texas in Dallas as a postdoctoral fellow in 1981, only a year after Gilman's discovery of the first G protein, and worked with him until 1985. www.scripps.edu /news/endeavor/endeavor2003/end6104.html   (1824 words)
