My first reaction when I saw this photo was “Hey! UofT!”. Second reaction: “Argh! Enzyme kinetics!” If you’ve ever taken a university biochemistry course you’ve had to learn about Michaelis-Menten kinetics. Before her collaboration with Leonor Michaelis, Maud Menten was one of few women who studied medicine at the University of Toronto and that was enough motivation for UofT to give her a plaque.
The photo was submitted by Philip Johnson of Biocurious.
