Abstract
THE institute originated from a public meeting summoned by the Lord Mayor in July, 1889, to hear statements from scientific men as- to the efficacy of Pasteur's treatment for hydrophobia. The lack of any institute in this country with objects similar to those of the Institut Pasteur in Paris was discussed, and it was pointed out that England should continue to take her share in the discovery of means to control disease and not be dependent upon the national laboratories of France and Germany.
