Florence Sabin, American Medical Scientist

Florence Rena Sabin (November 9, 1871 - October 3, 1953) was an American medical scientist. She was a pioneer for women in science. In 1902 she began to teach in the Department of Anatomy at Johns Hopkins and continued her research on the origins of blood, blood vessels, blood cells, the histology of the brain, and the pathology and immunology of tuberculosis. In 1924, Sabin's work on the origins of blood vessels earned her membership in the National Academy of Science (Parkhurst 1930). In September 1925 she became head of the Department of Cellular Studies at the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research in New York City. Her research focused on the lymphatic system, blood vessels and cells, and tuberculosis. In her retirement years, she pursued a second career as a public health activist in Colorado, and in 1951 received a Lasker Award for this work. She died of a heart attack in 1953 at the age of 81.
