She joined the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research in New York in 1918, and was associated with that institute throughout her long and outstanding career. Her bibliography comprises more than 50 publications published over 60 years. Her main achievements lie in her work on group A streptococci and their association with rheumatic fever. She is most famous for her serological classification of beta-hemolytic streptococcal bacteria, which is based on the carbohydrate composition of bacterial antigens found on their cell walls. The Lancefield classification system is still used internationally today' (Wikipedia). Lancefield's husband, Donald E. Lancefield, was a collaborator of Sturtevant's and is cited many times in the text of this volume.
