Dr. Maud Menten Canadian Medical Hall of Fame Laureate 1998

In 1879, in Port Lambton, Ontario, Maud Lenora Menten was born. Graduating from the University of Toronto in 1913, Menten was one of the first Canadian women to receive a medical degree. That same year, along with Dr. Leonor Michaelis, Menten introduced a concept that forever changed the study of biological reactions and helped to shape the field of biochemistry. The Michaelis-Menten equation gave scientists a way in which they could mathematically analyze their observations and descriptions of biological reactions. Not content to rest on her remarkable discovery, Menten co-devised what is now the standard method of isolating and describing protein behavior.
