Myriam Sarachik is recognized among Jewish contributors to Science & Medicine — Physicist; electron transport in disordered metals and quantum tunneling of magnetization
Sarachik was an experimental physicist renowned for her precise studies of electron transport in disordered metals and of quantum tunneling of magnetization in molecular magnets. Born into a Belgian Jewish family, she survived the Holocaust as a child refugee before building a distinguished career at the City College of New York and serving as president of the American Physical Society. She received the National Medal of Science for her contributions to condensed-matter physics.
