Due to her talents, firm determination, she overcome many difficulties in obtaining her Ph.D. degree in Physics in 1945, from Illinois University, USA. Although she was a student of Nuclear Physics but she made profound contribution in the field of Physiological Sciences. With the joint collaboration of another talented Physician, Solomon Berson, they did groundbreaking research for a period of 22 years and developed an authentic technique known as radioimmunoassay, RIA., for the treatment of Type II diabetes and other critical diseases,
In 1977, Yalow received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for her and Berson’s development of RIA. Yalow received the award without Berson, who died in 1972.
