Roger Charles Louis Guillemin was a French-American neuroscientist who received the National Medal of Science in 1976, and the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1977 for his work on neurohormones. Very slight rubbing and edgewear to covers. On the half title page, nicely signed by editor Albert Netter (1910-2012) - who created the European Society of Gynecology - and inscribed warmly to prior owner Guillemin. ~SP42~ [2.0P] Thirty-one papers on a wide variety of subjects related to gynecology, undoubtedly including some of which built on Dr. Guillemin's earlier work on neurohormones. Guillemin (1924-2024), a French-American neuroscientist, joined the Salk Institute in 1970 at the invitation of Jonas Salk. In separate research laboratories, Guillemin and neuroscientist Andrew Schally (1926-2024) discovered the structures of Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) and Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). They were jointly awarded the 1977 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for this discovery. In addition, Guillemin received awards from the National Academy of Sciences, 1974; the Canada Gairdner International Award, 1974; the Albert Lasker Award for Basic Medical Research, 1975; the Dickson Prize in Medicine, 1976; the Passano Award in Medical Sciences, 1976; the National Medal of Science, 1976; and from the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, 1977.
