Abstract
THE Biochemical Research Foundation Laboratory (formerly the Cancer Research Laboratories), under the direction of Dr. Ellice McDonald, has recently moved from Philadelphia, Pa., to Newark, Delaware. The buildings at Newark are new and specially designed for the work of the Foundation. One wing insulated from the main rooms contains a cyclotron for preparing radioactive substances for use in medical and biochemical problems. The laboratories appear to be admirably equipped for research in physics, physical chemistry and biochemistry.. Miss G. E. Woodward is still carrying on with her researches on the metabolism and structure of amino acids. In this new institute it is expected that close co–operation between chemists, physicists and biologists will lead to new advances.
