Does any of what we do as and huge advocate of Einstein’s theory, felt enormous pressure psychologists amount to more than ‘a hill of beans’, in contrast to gain the ‘correct’ result. A devout Quaker, Eddington had to the glorious achievements of other sciences? In a fit of physics noted that the heavens on 29 May 1919 (the day of the eclipse) envy, Banyard declares Einstein’s general theory of relativity had seen fit to deliver a particularly favourable alignment of ‘spectacularly tested’ during the 1919 solar eclipse, when light celestial bodies for ‘weighing light’, as he put it (see Eddington, was shown to be bent ‘to the amount predicted’. 1920).

    Political Change and Scottish Nationalism in Dundee 1973-2012 Thomas A W Stewart PhD Thesis University of Edinburgh 2019 Abstract Prior to the 2014 independence referendum, the Scottish National Party’s strongest bastions of support were in rural areas. The sole exception was Dundee, where it has consistently enjoyed levels of support well ahead of the national average, first replacing the Conservatives as the city’s second party in the 1970s before overcoming Labour to become its leading force in the 2000s. Through this period it achieved Westminster representation between 1974 and 1987, and again since 2005, and had won both of its Scottish Parliamentary seats by 2007. This performance has been completely unmatched in any of the country’s other cities. Using a mixture of archival research, oral history interviews, the local press and memoires, this thesis seeks to explain the party’s record of success in Dundee. It will assess the extent to which the character of the city itself, its economy, demography, geography, history, and local media landscape, made Dundee especially prone to Nationalist politics. It will then address the more fundamental importance of the interaction of local political forces that were independent of the city’s nature through an examination of the ability of party machines, key individuals and political strategies to shape the city’s electoral landscape. The local SNP and its main rival throughout the period, the Labour Party, will be analysed in particular detail. The thesis will also take time to delve into the histories of the Conservatives, Liberals and Radical Left within the city and their influence on the fortunes of the SNP.

  • BY COLIN BLAKEMORE and RICHARD C. VAN SLUYTERS* from the Physiological Laboratory, University of Cambridge, Cambridge CB2 3EG (Received 20 August 1973)
    J. Physiol. (1974), 237, pp. 195-216 195 With 8 text-figures Printed in Great Britain REVERSAL OF THE PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF MONOCULAR DEPRIVATION IN KITTENS: FURTHER EVIDENCE FOR A SENSITIVE PERIOD BY COLIN BLAKEMORE AND RICHARD C. VAN SLUYTERS* From the Physiological Laboratory, University of Cambridge, Cambridge CB2 3EG (Received 20 August 1973) SUMMARY 1. It was confirmed that suturing the lids of one eye (monocular deprivation), until only 5 weeks of age, leaves virtually every neurone in the kitten's visual cortex entirely dominated by the other eye. On the other hand, deprivation of both eyes causes no change in the normal ocular dominance of cortical neurones, most cells being clearly binocularly driven. 2. Kittens were monocularly deprived until various ages, from 5 to 14 weeks, at which time reverse suturing was performed: the initially deprived right eye was opened and the left eye closed for a further 9 weeks before recording from the visual cortex. 3. Reverse suturing at 5 weeks caused a complete switch in ocular dominance: every cell was dominated by the initially deprived right eye. Reverse suturing at 14 weeks, however, had almost no further effect on ocular dominance: most cells were still driven solely by the left eye. Animals reverse sutured at intermediate ages had cortical neurones strongly dominated by one eye or the other, and they were organized into clear columnar groups according to ocular dominance. 4. Thus, between 5 weeks and 4 months of age, there is a period of declining sensitivity to both the effects of an initial period of monocular deprivation and the reversal of those effects by reverse suturing.

    Working together to improve human health 2004/05 Annual Review The Medical Research Council (MRC) is the UK’s leading publicly funded biomedical research organisation. Our mission is to: ● Encourage and support high-quality research with the aim of improving human health. ● Produce skilled researchers, and to advance and disseminate knowledge and technology to improve the quality of life and economic competitiveness in the UK. ● Promote dialogue with the public about medical research. Welcome 1 Introduction 2 Working in partnership 4 Accelerating research 8 A sense of achievement 12 14 Cancer 16 Cardiovascular disease and stroke 18 Respiratory disease 20 Infectious disease 22 Neurosciences and mental health 24 The ageing population 26 Obesity, diet and diabetes 28 Health inequalities 30 Clinical investigation and trials 32 From discovery to treatments Welcome From Professor Colin Blakemore MRC Chief Executive In this Annual Review you will read about some of the many achievements of MRC-funded scientists in 2004/05 and the partnerships that have made much of this vital work possible. The research that we fund is aimed at tackling major challenges to human health. These range from potentially devastating infections such as AIDS and avian flu to the gradual increase in ageing-related diseases resulting from longer life expectancy. But it is not enough for us simply to support and carry out the highest-quality biomedical science. We must relate what we are doing in the laboratory to clinical research involving patients and the work of the NHS. By focussing on medical research ‘in the round’, as a continuum involving interaction and two-way feedback between a variety of disciplines, we can ensure that our scientists’ discoveries are translated into health benefits for people as soon as possible.
