Dorothy Jordan Lloyd
Dorothy Jordan Lloyd (1 May 1889 – 21 November 1946) was an early protein scientist who studied the interactions of water with proteins, particularly gelatin. She was also Director of the British Leather Manufacturers' Research Association. She was the first to propose that the structure of globular proteins was maintained by hydrogen bonds, an idea championed later by Linus Pauling and others.
