Edith Bülbring
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Edith Bülbring (27 December 1903-5 July 1990) was Professor of Pharmacology, Oxford University, 1967-71, later Emeritus Professor.
She was educated at the universities of Bonn, Munich and Freiburg, and became a hospital doctor. When her Jewish colleagues were dismissed by the Nazis, she was initially overlooked, because she was only partly Jewish, but eventually she was dismissed too and managed to flee to England.
She worked at the Pharmacological Laboratory of the Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain, University of London, 1933-38, then in the Pharmacology Department, University of Oxford, 1938-71.
She was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1958.
