George Emil Palade (November 19, 1912 – October 8, 2008) was a highly regarded Romanian cell biologist. In 1974, he shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with Albert Claude and Christian de Duve, for his discoveries concerning the structure and function of organelles in biological cells.

Dr. Palade also received the U.S. National Medal of Science in Biological Sciences for "pioneering discoveries of a host of fundamental, highly organized structures in living cells..." in 1986,( [http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9a/National_Medal_of_Science.gifNational Medal of Science] ), and was previously elected a Member of the National Academy of Science in 1961.

Biography

George E. Palade received his M.D. in 1940 from the Carol Davila School of Medicine of the University of Bucharest, Romania. He was a member of the faculty of that famous school until 1945 when he went to the United States for postdoctoral studies. There, he joined Prof. Albert Claude at the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research. cn

In 1952, Dr.Palade became a naturalized citizen of the United States. He was a Professor at the Rockefeller Institute (1958-1973), Yale University Medical School (1973-1990), and University of California, San Diego (1990-2008). At UCSD, Dr. Palade was Professor of Medicine in Residence (Emeritus) in theDepartment of Cellular & Molecular Medicine, as well as a Dean for Scientific Affairs (Emeritus), in the School of Medicine at La Jolla, California. [ [http://cmm.ucsd.edu/palade/ Professor George E. Palade] - web page atthe University of California at San Diego, School of medicine] In 1970, he was awarded [ [http://www.cumc.columbia.edu/horwitz/ The Horowitz Prize] ] the Louisa Gross Horwitz Prize from Columbia University together with Renato Dulbecco co-winner of 1974 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine "for discoveries concerning the functional organization of the cell that were seminal events in the development of modern cell biology".", [ [http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/medicine/laureates/1974/ "The 1974 Nobel Prize for Medicine"] ] related to his previous research carried out at the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research [http://www.rockefeller.edu/nobel.html] . His Nobel lecture, delivered on December 12, 1974, was entitled: "Intracellular Aspects of the Process of Protein Secretion" [ [http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/medicine/laureates/1974/palade-lecture.html Nobel lecture] ] , published in 1992 by the Nobel Prize Foundation [ [http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/medicine/laureates/1974/palade-lecture.pdf The Nobel Prize Lecture of George E. Palade] (Pdf 3.78 MB), (1974) The Nobel Foundation, ISBN 981-02-0791-3] , [ [http://nobelprize.org/nobelfoundation/publications/lectures/WSC/physio-71-80.html Nobel Lectures in Physiology or Medicine] ] At the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research, Dr. Palade used electron microscopy to study the internal organization of such cell structures as mitochondria, chloroplasts, the Golgi apparatus, and others. His most important discovery was made while using an experimental strategy known as a pulse-chase analysis. In the experiment Palade and his colleagues were able to confirm an existing hypothesis that a secretory pathway exists and that the Rough ER and the Golgi apparatus function together.

He focused on Weibel-Palade bodies (a storage organelle unique to the endothelium, containing von Willebrand factor and various proteins) which he described together with the Swiss anatomist Ewald R. Weibel [Weibel ER, Palade GE. "New cytoplasmic components in arterial endothelia". "J. Cell. Biol." 1964, 23: 101-112). http://www.jcb.org/cgi/content/abstract/23/1/101]

Palade was married to Marilyn Farquhar, a cell biologist at the University of California, San Diego.
