After undergraduate studies at the University of Bonn, she earned her doctoral degree in plant genetics at the University of Cologne in 1959.[2] From there, she was recruited to Vanderbilt University to study bacteriophage T4, a topic for which she became a leading investigator.[3] After postdoctoral research at Vanderbilt and then the Carnegie Institute of Washington at Cold Spring Harbor (with Nobel laureate A. D. Hershey), she returned to Vanderbilt as a faculty member in 1965, and became a citizen of the United States of America in 1968. Mosig served on the Vanderbilt faculty until her death in 2003.[3] Recognition
DeathMosig died at Alive Hospice in Nashville a few years after being diagnosed with metastatic ovarian cancer. She was 72 years old.[3][2] In her will she endowed a fund to support scholarly travel for Vanderbilt graduate students in the biological sciences.[6] Key publications
