Abstract
AT a recent meeting of the Trustees of the Lewes Studentship in Physiology, which was founded by the late “George Eliot” in memory of her husband, Mr. George Henry Lewes, the vacancy occasioned by the appointment of Dr. Roy to the Brown Professorship of Pathology in the University of London was filled up, according to the terms of the Trust, by the election of Mr. L. C. Wooldridge, D.Sc. (Lond.). Dr. Wooldridge is a former student of Guy's Hospital, who has lately been working in Prof. Ludwig's laboratory at Leipzig. He has already made investigations of importance, one of which, on the part taken by the white corpuscles in the coagulation of the blood, has been read before the Royal Society. The studentship is for three years, and its conditions provide for the holder devoting himself during that time to physiological researches. Wisely administered, such endowments of research are invaluable, and it is to be wished that there were more of them. The first appointment of the Trustees led to the brilliant work of Prof. Roy, and we do not doubt that their present choice will be no less amply justified.
