White coats and no trousers
Laboratory technicians are a vital part of any working lab. Not only is their knowledge and expertise important for the success of research, but they also often maintain the lab's intellectual and social life. Despite the importance of their work, they are rarely acknowledged in publications, and leave only a few traces within the historical record—the voices of women laboratory technicians are even harder to uncover. This paper attempts to corre…
The early education of a Nobel laureate
This paper examines the early schooling, in London and in Cambridge, of the later Nobel laureate and President of the Royal Society, the physiologist Sir Henry Dale (1875–1968). The influence of key teachers who directed the boy's interest towards science, and the impact of his schooling on his university education and later scientific career, are examined in particular. The significance of the zoologist Edward Butler of Tollington Park College, …

Working with C. S. Sherrington, 1918–24
Sir Charles Sherrington FRS (1857–1952) was one of the most notable neurophysiologists of the twentieth century.[1][1] After studies in Cambridge and London, he became a lecturer in physiology at St Thomas's Hospital, London, then Professor of Physiology at Liverpool in 1895, and then Waynflete
Keeping the culture alive
This paper reports results from a detailed study of the careers of laboratory technicians in British medical research. Technicians and their contributions are very frequently missing from accounts of modern medicine, and this project is an attempt to correct that absence. The present paper focuses almost entirely on the Medical Research Council's National Institute for Medical Research in North London, from the first proposal of such a body in 19…

Ashes to Ashes
Future historians will wonder why, despite the risks, society persisted in its warm relationship with the cigarette; by the end of the century global consumption was still rising. The 1995 symposium at the Wellcome Institute for the History of Medicine not only examined tobacco's connection with health, but the varied attitudes towards smoking, which have included regarding it as ‘manly', relaxing, fashionable - and decadent. A particular feature…
The coming of the electronic age to the Cambridge Physiological Laboratory
E. D. Adrian, F.R.S. (1889-1975) was one of Britain’s most distinguished neurophysiologists, who, during a long and productive lifetime, achieved most honours and distinctions available to a scientific man. These included the 1932 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine, shared with Sir Charles Sherrington, F. R.S., the Order of Merit (1942), and Presidency of the Royal Society (1950-55). His interest in the nervous system started at the beginning…

George Eliot’s support for physiology
In 1879 the novelist George Eliot (Marian Evans) established, in memory of her close companion, the writer and amateur scientist George Henry Lewes, a studentship for the support of physiology ‘the science least adequately studied in England’ (1). At this time there was much public and professional concern about the role of science and the inadequate level of its funding in Britain. There were several recurring, overlapping needs: for educational…
