John W. Daly: The Early Years. The NIH Shift and Cyclic-AMP Assays: Early Pharmacological Breakthroughs

Year: 2009

Type: article

Abstract: Although trained as an organic chemist, John Daly embarked in his early years at NIH on several research projects that involved a significant and sophisticated application of biochemistry and pharmacology.He was able to work with impressive leaders in these fields, including the late Nobel Laureate, Julius Axelrod.In this report, we highlight two aspects of this work-his involvement in the discovery of the NIH shift and the development of a method to quickly assay cyclic AMP biosynthesis.The strong pharmacological component of his research career evolved from these and other early seminal discoveries.
