This document is a copy of one of Marjory Stephenson's, along with her colleague L.H. Strickland, most important papers, the discovery of the hydrogenase enzyme. It is just one of her many research papers on enzymes that laid the foundation for detailed studies of metabolism, both in bacteria and higher-level organisms.
Marjory Stephenson's Bacterial Metabolism is a collection of the most important techniques, studies, and information regarding the fields of chemical microbiology and bacterial biochemistry, citing numerous scientists and scientific papers, several of them her own. This photo contains its table of contents and the last few paragraphs of her own introduction to this monograph.
This photo of Marjory Stephenson, taken by Walter Stoneman in 1940, is housed at the National Portrait Gallery in London, UK. It is one of the few photos that exist of her.
This document details the proposal for the Society of General Microbiology to be established, including why such a society needs to be created, how the society is to be named and operated, the expected rules and guidelines the society aims to follow, and a list of people that are involved, later known as the Society's Original Members and Inaugural Committee.
This document contains a list of the original members of Europe's first and largest microbiology society, the Society of General Microbiology. Founded in 1944 by Marjory Stephenson and Sir Alexander Fleming, it allowed scientists a chance to collaborate and build a community together in the newly emerging fields of bacterial biochemistry and general microbiology.
