		Wendell Stanley attended an advanced school of education called Earlham College and proceeded to graduate with his Bachelor of Science degree in 1926, the same year that he had entered the college.
		Stanley discovered a way to crystallize viruses, which was a large leap from what attempts that he made since he had previously been trying to achieve fro quite some time.
		Stanley was and still is very recognized for his accomplishments on the discovery of Crystallization of Enzymes.

		In 1935,Wendell Meredith Stanley crystallized the virus forelectron microscopy and showed that it remains active evenafter crystallization.
		In 1955, Heinz Fraenkel-Conrat and Robley Williams showed that purified TMV RNA and its capsid(coat) protein assemble by themselves to functional viruses, indicating that this is the most stable structure (the one with thelowest free energy), and likely the natural assembly mechanism within the host cell.
		In 1958, she speculated that the virus was hollow, not solid, andhypothesized that the RNA of TMV is single-stranded.

	Biotech @ 25: UC Scientists - Stanley
		It was partly to pursue this interest in viruses as biological macromolecules that Stanley left the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research to found the Virus Laboratory on the Berkeley campus and to build a new free-standing Department of Biochemistry that was not beholden to a medical or agricultural school.
		Stanley's move to the University of California afforded him the opportunity to assemble a group of young scientists practicing the latest physical and chemical techniques for virus studies.
		The addition of Wendell Stanley to the Berkeley faculty was meant to increase the University's prestige.

	News in the College of Letters and Science, UC Berkeley
		Wendell Meredith Stanley, then Chair of the Biochemistry Department and Director of the Virology Laboratory, desired the two units to be in close proximity to each other for the cross-pollination of ideas.
		Stanley will contain laboratories for faculty in the College of Letters and Science and classrooms as it always has, but with three times the floor space, the new building will include as well laboratory space for faculty in the College of Chemistry and the College of Engineering.
		According to Stanley construction site project manager Robert Bluhm, "The facility will be an architectural example of the new paradigm for interdisciplinary research, providing exceptionally flexible and modular laboratories for constantly evolving teams and initiatives." With the concept of interdisciplinarity extended into the architecture, scientists will be in close proximity to researchers from different fields.

		Wendell Meredith Stanley was a Spanish-American biochemist, who received (with John Northrop and James Sumner) the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1946 for his work in the purification and crystallization of viruses, thus demonstrating their molecular structure.
		This work began in 1935 when Stanley crystallized tobacco mosaic virus, the first such purification of a virus.
		He then believed, incorrectly, that protein was the active agent of the virus.

		Six years later, a Dutch botanist named Martinus Beijerinck (1851-1931) repeated the experiments and concluded the infectious agent was not a bacterium but the liquid itself, a poison, and he called it a filterable "virus", the word "virus" being the Latin word for poison.
		He repeated the filtration experiments with diseased tobacco leaves, and he isolated a crystalline substance in high concentration that had all the infective properties of the so-called virus liquid.
		In the report which Stanley published in 1935, he concluded: "Tobacco mosaic virus is regarded as an autocatalytic protein which, for the present, may be assumed to require the presence of living cells for multiplication." For this work, Stanley received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1946.
