About this Item
"My dear Lee, I trust you bear in memory that you kindly agreed to be the American Secty for the International Congress of Physiologists 1901. I do not suppose that it will involve you in very arduous labours, but Prof. Mosso of Turin has probably already sent to you some papers to distribute. Many of us here would much prefer to have the Congress begin on Tuesday the 17th September instead of Monday 16th. One reason of our wish lies in the date of opening of the Brit. Assoc. meeting at Glasgow being Sept. 11th; and the extra day would be of convenience in allowing physiologists to get from one meeting to the other. I think also that for any on your side the water who might travel via Liverpool the Tuesday allows a better journey to Turin than does the Monday-arrival here being Saturday. Let me wish you a very happy New Year & Century! My wife joins me in best regards. I am yours most truly Ch. S. Sherrington." Charles S. Sherrington shared the Nobel prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1932 with with Edgar Adrian for their discoveries regarding the functions of neurons. . Seller Inventory # 8928
