Dr. Gerti Cori who shared the 1947 Nobel Prize in Physiology with her husband, Dr. Carl Cori, and Dr. Bernardo Houssay, is the subject of The Right Chemistry, Montreal Gazette, February 3, 2024, in a video by Dr. Joe Schwarz of the Office for Science & Society, University of Montreal.

 

Each of the Cori's received 1/4 of the prize with Houssay receiving 1/2.

Perhaps some marathon organizers will one day have a run in recognition of her contribution to running.

Here is the 4 m 53 s video.
