Article Synopsis
- On November 7, 1923, J.J.R. Macleod announced he would share his Nobel Prize with J.B. Collip after F.G. Banting shared his half with C.H. Best.
- Macleod humbly described his role in the discovery of insulin as merely being an "impresario," but his expertise and leadership were critical to the development of insulin as an effective diabetes treatment.
- The consensus is that while his humility is noted, Macleod's significant contributions in research and management were essential for the success of the insulin project.
