Alexander Kolin (1910-1997), Russian-born German-US biophysicist. Kolin is best known for his invention of the electromagnetic flow meter and of isoelectric focusing. His early studies were in Berlin, where his family moved in 1922 from Odessa, Russia. With the rise of Nazi Germany, Kolin emigrated to the USA and settled in Chicago. From 1956, he worked at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA), mostly on electrophoresis. He was awarded the John Scott Medal (1965) and the Alexander von Humboldt Award (1977). This photograph shows Kolin as Professor of Biophysics at UCLA's School of Medicine, Los Angeles, California, USA.
