Peter Reed Morrison

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Peter Reed Morrison (11 November 1919, Washington, DC – 22 March 2019) was a professor of animal physiology[1] and a Guggenheim Fellow for the academic year 1954–1955.[2]

Early life

Morrison graduated in 1940 with a B.S. from Swarthmore College and graduated in 1947 with a Ph.D. from Harvard University. He became a physiology and biology professor at the University of Wisconsin–Madison.[3] Peter was also a professor of zoophysiology at the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) from 1963 to 1974. Since then, he retired as professor emeritus.[1] He was also the director of UAF's Institute of Arctic Biology from 1966 to 1974.[4]

... fibrin film ... developed chiefly by the beautiful work of John D. Ferry and Peter R. Morrison ... proved to be the first really safe and effective replacement for the dural membrane lining the brain after some of the latter had been removed in an operation.[5]
