Overview
Biographical Note
Professor Bernice Katz Noble taught at the University at Buffalo in the School of Medicine from 1977 until her death in 2003. She contributed so much to UB through not only her scholarly research, but her tireless activism for affirmative action and women's rights at UB.
Born in Philadelphia in 1940, Noble graduate from Bryn Mawr College in 1962. She went on to receive a master's degree from Brandeis University in 1964 and a Ph.D. in Microbiology from the State University of New York at Buffalo in 1975. Two years later, she joined the faculty of UB as a professor of Microbiology and Immunology.
Over the course of her career, Noble published over one hundred journal articles relating to her scientific research in immunologic damage with functional impairment and the relations between autoimmunity and gender.
On top of all of her teaching and research, Noble also dedicated much of her time to advancing women's careers at UB.
Working to increase the number of female students and tenure-track faculty in the sciences, Noble served as co-chair of the President's Task Force on the Status of Women at UB from 1996 to 1997. The final report (authored by Noble and co-chair, John M. Staley) from that Task Force led directly to increased salary parity, a stronger affirmative action office and enhanced child-care facilities at UB.
