Summary

[edit]
Description The Frank R. Lillie House in Chicago, a national landmark (1904). Lillie received degrees from the University of Toronto and Clark University. He was one of the first students at the University of Chicago, and was given a Ph.D. in Zoology from the institution in 1894. He taught at the university from 1906 to 1935. He simultaneously served as President of the National Academy of Sciences and the Chairmen of the US National Research Council, the only person to ever do so. He was also the director of the Woods Hole Marine Biological Laboratory. He is known as the father of embryology, determining that sex differentiation was controlled by circulating sex hormones, leading to the development of the endocrinology field. It was previously unknown how indifferent embryos developed into specific sexes.
