21. Fischer, Edmond H. Fischer, Edmond H. (1920) Memories of my early childhood are clouded with uncertainties because I was essentially separated from my parents since the http://www.cartage.org.lb/en/themes/Biographies/MainBiographies/F/Fischer1/Fisch

Fischer, Edmond H. At age 7, my parents sent my two older brothers and me to La Châtaigneraie, a large Swiss boarding school overlooking Lake Geneva. My oldest brother, Raoul, was the first to leave to attend the ETH, the Swiss Federal Polytechnical Institute in Zürich where he was awarded a degree in engineering. My brother Georges went to Oxford and read law. In 1935, I entered Geneva's all boys Collčge de Calvin from which I obtained my Maturité Fédérale four years later, even as the specter of World War II loomed evermore menacing. While in school, I formed a lifelong friendship with my classmate Wilfried Haudenschild who dazzled me with his tinkering abilities, off-the-wall ideas and mechanical inventiveness. Together we decided that one of us should go into the Sciences and the other into Medicine so that we could cure all the ills of the world. Another important event marked my High School days: I was admitted to the Geneva Conservatory of Music. I had heard Johnny Aubert give an unforgettable rendition of Beethoven's 5th Piano Concerto. I decided on the spot that I wanted to study with him. After an audition in which I nervously presented Mendelssohn's Rondo Capriccioso and Chopin's A-maj. Polonaise, he took me on, and that spelled the beginning of many enthralling years. Music had always played an important part in my life, to such an extent that I even wondered whether I should not make a career of it. But finally I thought it better to keep music purely for pleasure.

After a brief spell at the California Institute of Technology in 1953, he was appointed an assistant professor of biochemistry at the University of Washington, subsequently becoming associate professor (1956–61) and professor (1961–90). Fischer's most acclaimed work was done at Seattle in the 1950s and 1960s in collaboration with the biochemist Edwin Krebs .

Edmond H Fischer Edmond H Fischer American biochemist who was the corecipient with Edwin G. Krebs of the 1992 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine for their discoveries concerning reversible phosphorylation, a biochemical mechanism that governs the activities of cell proteins. The son of Swiss parents, Fischer earned a Ph.D. in chemistry from the University of Geneva in 1947 and conducted research there until 1953. That year he went to the United States, where he joined Krebs on the faculty of the University of Washington, Seattle. He became a full professor there in 1961. Fischer and Krebs made their discoveries in the mid-1950s while studying reversible phosphorylation i.e., the attachment or detachment of phosphate groups to cell proteins. The two men were the first to purify and characterize one of the enzymes (phosphorylase) involved in the process of phosphorylation. They also discovered the enzymes that catalyze the attachment and detachment of phosphate groups, known as protein kinases and phosphatase, respectively. In the decades following these initial discoveries, scientists were able to identify many other enzymes that regulate specific processes in cells, leading to explanations of the mechanisms controlling basic activities in all living cells.
