Abstract
The Most Highly Cited Paper in Publishing History: Protein Determination by Oliver H. Lowry
Highlights
Oliver Howe Lowry (1910 –1996) was born in Chicago, the youngest of five children
With Frederick Koch as his thesis advisor, Lowry started what would be a lifelong study of micro methods when he developed a method for measuring ketone bodies in one milliliter of blood
The University of Chicago was one of the few schools that offered an M.D.-Ph.D. program at that time. Because he had already taken many of the preclinical courses, Lowry was able to squeeze four academic years into three calendar years, and in 1937, he graduated with both a doctorate in physiological chemistry and a medical degree
