Sir Frederick Gowland Hopkins (20 June 1861 – 16 May 1947) was an English biochemist.
He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1929, with Chri...
I am far from maintaining that these fundamental properties may not depend upon organisation at levels above any chemical level; to understand them may even call for different methods of thought; I do not pretend to know. Frederick Gowland Hopkins

When physiologists revealed the existence and functions of hormones they not only gave increased opportunities for the activities of biochemists but in particular gave a new charter to biochemical thought, and with the discovery of vitamins. Frederick Gowland Hopkins

It is my own faith that just as the older biology from its faithful studies of external forms provided a new concept in the doctrine of evolution, so the new biology is yet fated to furnish entirely new fundamental concepts of science. Frederick Gowland Hopkins

So far from this being the case, recent progress points in the clearest way to the fact that the molecules with which a most important and significant part of the chemical dynamics of living tissues is concerned are of a comparatively simple character. Frederick Gowland Hopkins

But, further, no animal can live upon a mixture of pure protein, fat and carbohydrate, and even when the necessary inorganic material is carefully supplied, the animal still cannot flourish. Frederick Gowland Hopkins
