Abstract
DR. F. Y. HENDERSON, who has taken up the post of director of forest products research on Mr. Robertson's retirement, joined the staff of the Imperial College of Science and Technology in 1921 as plant physiologist. He devoted much of his time to research, and took an active part in teaching, and organizing the practical teaching in plant physiology. He was also for many years director of biological studies at the John Cass Institute, and superintendent of examinations for the Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain. In 1931 Dr. Henderson took over the work of Prof. Percy Groom as timber technologist, and did much teaching in this field as well as research on the biological changes in felled timber.
