Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin - The British Chemist with a Worldwide Perspective
Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin received a Nobel Prize in 1964 for "her determination by X-ray techniques of the structures of important biological substances." Her work provided data on the structure of insulin, B12, and penicillin. She was a lifelong advocate for peace and the free exchange of scientific information.

Sir Alexander Fleming - The Gift of Pencillin
Sir Alexander Fleming was one of many scientists whose work gave the world pencillin. In a serendipitous turn of events, the changing temperatures and a errant spore that landed in a culture dish produced a blue mold that filled the rest of the dish and created what Fleming described as a halo around the staphylococcus bacteria. Fleming corrected theorized that the substance had slowed the growth of the bacteria.

THE DANGER OF ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANT BACTERIA
The success of antibiotics has been so spectacular that some doctors said that soon infectious diseases would disappear and would be a thing of the past. However, almost 60 years after the discovery of penicillin we are under attack by new microbes and some of the old ones have become resistant to the antibiotics that used to kill them. What happened?
