- catalog description "Joseph E. Murray (1919-2012), A.B., 1940, College of the Holy Cross, M.D., 1943, Harvard Medical School, transplant and plastic surgeon, received the 1990 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his work on organ transplantation. Between 1951 and 1985, Murray served as Director of the Surgical Research Laboratory at Harvard Medical School and at Peter Bent Brigham Hospital (now Brigham and Women’s Hospital), head of the plastic surgery departments at Peter Bent Brigham Hospital and Children’s Hospital Boston, and was a Harvard Medical School Professor of Surgery. He served at Valley Forge General Hospital, Phoenixville, Pennsylvania, during World War II, working with surgeon Bradford Cannon (1907-2005), and it was there, while performing skin grafts on burned soldiers, that Murray first became interested in organ transplantation. In 1952, Murray became Director of the Surgical Research Laboratory at Harvard Medical School and at Peter Bent Brigham Hospital (1952-1975), based on the Harvard Medical School Quadrangle. It was there that Murray and his colleagues refined the surgical techniques for renal transplantation in dogs, which led to the development of the procedure used for humans. On 23 December 1954, Murray performed the first successful human organ transplantation, between identical twins, Ronald (donor) and Richard (recipient) Herrick, at the Brigham; in 1959, the first successful renal transplantation between non-identical twins utilizing total body x-rays to suppress the recipient’s immune system; and in 1962, the first cadaveric renal transplantation, employing the new immunosuppressant drug Azathioprine (Imuran) he had developed. In 1971, Murray resigned as the Chief of Transplant Surgery at the Brigham to focus on plastic surgery, serving as the Head of Plastic Surgery at both the Brigham (until 1986) and Children’s Hospital Boston (1972-1985), where he focused on craniofacial reconstruction.".
