- W570697712 abstract "David R. Eyre was a newly minted PhD in biochemistry from the University of Leeds when he joined Melvin Glimcher’s lab in 1971. Eyre’s new lab in Boston, MA, USA was a far cry from his previous one in the United Kingdom, where he routinely had to hunt for well-worn equipment. Glimcher’s lab featured cutting-edge resources from state-of-the-art protein sequencers to electron microscopes and nuclear magnetic resonance equipment. There was an entire floor dedicated to biochemistry. The lab housed more than 100 scientists, a large program for its day, providing an atmosphere that encouraged collaboration. His lab was even a research center for the training of senior scientists and postdoctoral fellows who wished to develop their own research centers in the basic sciences and musculoskeletal system [9].“The size and scale of the lab was like nothing I had ever seen before,” Eyre told CORR® in a phone interview. “No one had a lab of this scale. It takes a quite exceptional person to lead a lab of that magnitude.”Melvin J. Glimcher MD was that person (Fig. 1). The scale of Glimcher’s educational background and professional experience matched the scale of his lab. The first tenured Chair in Orthopaedic Surgery at Harvard Medical School at the age of 39, Glimcher was also Chief of Orthopaedic Surgery at Massachusetts General Hospital and Boston Children’s Hospital in Boston, MA, USA. His work in orthopaedics, clinical medicine, biology, mechanical engineering, and the basic sciences afforded him the opportunity to collaborate with exceptional scientists using the most advanced technological tools of the day.Fig. 1The scale of Glimcher’s educational background and professional experience matched the scale of his lab. Published with permission from Boston Children’s Hospital.“The lab, and more specifically, Glimcher himself, could infuse you with his enthusiasm,” Eyre said. “You were on the cutting edge of everything. This was high-level basic research. It certainly sparked my interest in research.”Glimcher’s decision to pursue a career in orthopaedics reportedly was based on a conversation he had with one of his professors, who told him that orthopaedics was a “barren field” [6]. But Glimcher seemed to understand the potential in orthopaedics early on, and quickly recognized where the field was headed. In 1966, Glimcher told The Boston Globe, “Orthopaedics in the future will not be simply surgery, or medicine, but a combination of both plus knowledge of the whole area of skeletal structure, its biology, chemistry, and biomechanics” [13].“He thought he could really make a difference in the field,” Laurie Glimcher MD, his daughter and Stephen and Suzanne Weiss Dean of Weill Cornell Medical College in New York, NY, USA told CORR® in a phone interview." @default.
