Zacharias Dische (18 February 1895 – 17 January 1988) was an American biochemist. He worked as a biochemical researcher in Vienna before being forced by the Anschluss to become a refugee,[1] first in France and then in the US, where he joined the faculty of Columbia University in 1943.[2] During his time in Marseilles he made a major discovery that is little known and usually attributed to others.
