Patenting in the public interest: ’ Administration of insulin patents by the University of Toronto
Whereas the norms of the academic world and medical ethics prohibited academics and doctors from applying for patents on medical inventions, the University of Toronto decided in 1922 to file a patent application on the discovery of insulin, covering both the therapeutic substance and the isolation and purification processes developed by the inventors. The University extended its patent to 25 countries in North America, Europe, Latin America, Aust…

Le sexe des hormones: L'ambivalence fondatrice des hormones sexuelles
Les hormones sexuelles ont été inventées à la fin du XIX e siècle comme un élixir de vie d’origine masculine. Mais ce sont les effets thérapeutiques d’autres hormones qui validèrent aux yeux de la communauté scientifique l’existence de ces nouvelles molécules. Obéissant au modèle culturel dominant de l’existence de deux sexes bien distincts, les biologistes affirmèrent qu’il existait des hormones « masculines » agissant sur les organes considérés…
Making the Unit of Insulin: Standards, Clinical Work, and Industry, 1920-1925
The standardization of insulin is generally considered by historians to have been a process conducted by physiologists under the direction of Henry Dale. This article shows that it actually involved many actors and began with the earliest administration to patients in Canada and the United States. During this first phase, the drug company Eli Lilly also contributed actively to the standardization, under the scientific direction of George Clowes. …

Literary Genres and the Construction of Knowledge in Biology: Semantic Shifts and Scientific Change
Experimental papers (`primary literature') in biology are generally considered as the key scientific texts that allow the construction of knowledge claims, whereas it is held that review papers (`secondary literature') play a role in `synthesizing' the knowledge claims made in experimental papers, rather than in making new claims. This paper analyzes the literary strategy used by a biologist in order to make a new knowledge claim. As a worker in …
Les métaphores en biologie: Analogies ou outils de pensée
Les métaphores cognitives sont présentes dès les débuts de l'endocrinologie, avec l'élaboration du concept de messager chimique par E. Starling en 1905, puis d'homéostasie en 1925 par Cannon. L'endocrinologie contemporaine en fait à nouveau grand usage : les glandes endocriniennes sont considérées comme des dispositifs de reconnaissance des besoins physiologiques qui sécrètent les hormones en fonction de ces besoins. Elles agissent sur leur "orga…
