Biographical Note

Ralph Stayner Lillie, biologist, was born August 8, 1875 in Toronto, Canada. He received his B.A. from the University of Toronto in 1896, and briefly attended graduate courses at the University of Michigan before going on to obtain his Ph.D. at the University of Chicago in 1901. From 1902 to 1924 he held posts as instructor and research assistant at institutions including the Carnegie Institute and Johns Hopkins University. In 1924, Lillie was appointed Professor of General Physiology at the University of Chicago, a post he held until his retirement in 1940. He served as a Professor Emeritus from then until his death in 1952. Lillie’s specialty was research into the fundamental properties of life, and the physiology of stimulation, growth and cell division. He was also noted for his work on the physiological effects of radiation, and for his views on the philosophical aspects of biology.
