About DBpedia

Gertrude Falk (August 24, 1925 – March 9, 2008) was an American physiologist, who was Professor of Physiology at University College London, and the first woman to work in her field at UCL Medical School. Born to immigrant parents in the United States, she was the first in her family to enroll at University, earning Bachelor of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees. Falk worked at the University of Illinois College of Medicine, University of Washington and UCL Medical School. She and neuroscientist Paul Fatt researched celluar biophysics to find how the retina converts light into electrical signals, and later worked alongside Jonathan Ashmore in demonstrating that light responses can be increased significantly at the synthase between the rod bipolar cell and photoreceptor cell.

dbo:abstract كانت جيرترود فالك (24 أغسطس 1925 - 9 مارس 2008)، عالمة فيزيولوجيا أمريكية، وكانت أستاذةً لعلم وظائف الأعضاء في جامعة كوليدج لندن، وأول امرأة تعمل في مجالها في كلية الطب بجامعة كاليفورنيا في لوس أنجلوس. ولدت لأبوين مهاجرين في الولايات المتحدة، وكانت الأولى في عائلتها التي التحقت بالجامعة، وحصلت على بكالوريوس العلوم ودكتوراه في الفلسفة. عملت فالك في كلية الطب بجامعة إلينوي وجامعة واشنطن وكلية الطب بجامعة كاليفورنيا في لوس أنجلوس. بحثت هي وعالم الأعصاب بول فات في الفيزياء الحيوية الخلوية لاكتشاف كيفية تحويل شبكية العين للضوء إلى إشارات كهربائية، وعملت لاحقًا جنبًا إلى جنب مع جوناثان أشمور لإثبات أنه يمكن زيادة استجابات الضوء بشكل كبير عند سينسيز بين خلية قضيب ثنائي القطب وخلية مستقبلات ضوئية.
