Mabel Ruth Hokin (1924-2003) was a biochemist who spent most of her professional career conducting fundamental research in the University of Wisconsin Medical School.
She is most well known for the work she did early in her career, along with then-husband Lowell Hokin, in the study of stimulated phosphoinositide turnover in secretory tissues, a key component of transmembrane signaling and many other cell regulatory processes which became known as the 'PI Effect'.
