FRANK, GLEV MIKHAILOVICH (Biophysicist) 



G. M. Frank was born May 24, 1904. He graduated from 

 Crimean University in 1925. In 1929 he worked at the Physico- 

 Technical Institute in Leningrad and subsequently at the All- 

 Union Institute of Experimental Medicine and at the U.S.S.R. 

 Academy of Medical Sciences. He began working at the U.S.S.R. 

 Academy of Sciences in 1943. From 1946 to 1948 he was Chief 

 of the Radiation Laboratory of the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sci- 

 ences. In 1948 he was on the staff of the U.S.S.R. Academy of 

 Medical Sciences Biophysics Institute where he became labora- 

 tory Chief in 1953 to 1958, acting Director, then Director, in 

 1958. Frank became a Corresponding Member of the U.S.S.R. 

 Academy of Medical Sciences in 1945, and in 1960 a Correspond- 

 ing Member of the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences. He has been 

 a member of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union since 

 1947. In 1949 and 1951 he was awarded a Stalin Prize. 



Frank investigated the effect of ultra-violet and ionizing 

 radiation on living organisms and the biophysical basis of 

 nervous excitation and muscle contraction. He was one of the 

 first in the U.S.S.R. to use radioactive isotopes in biological 

 investigations.
