Stanford Moore Net Worth

Stanford Moore was an American biochemist who was jointly awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1972 for his contribution to the research work at Rockefeller University regarding the structure of ribonuclease. He and William Howard Stein collaborated to discover new techniques of chromatography for analysing amino acids and small peptides, and developed the first automatic amino-acid analyzer. Moore spent most of his professional career at the Rockefeller University, and was awarded several awards along with Stein, including the American Chemical Society Award in Chromatography and Electrophoresis in 1964 and the Linderstrom-Lang Medal from the Carlsberg Research Center in 1972.

Biography/Timeline

1935

Moore attended Peabody Demonstration School, now known as University School of Nashville, and in 1935 graduated summa cum laude from Vanderbilt University, where he was a member of Phi Kappa Sigma. He earned his doctorate in Organic Chemistry from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 1938. Moore then joined the staff of the Rockefeller Institute, later Rockefeller University, where he spent his entire professional career, with the exception of a period of government Service during World War II. He became Professor of Biochemistry in 1952.

1958

In 1958 he and william H. Stein developed the first automated amino acid analyzer, which facilitated the determination of protein sequences. In 1959 Moore and Stein announced the first determination of the complete amino acid sequence of an enzyme, ribonuclease, work which was cited in the Nobel award. He never married.
