Here, Cell Death and Differentiation asks Jac- ques Miller about his early work on thymus and T cells. CDD: Could you please describe your personal background, who were your parents, where were you born and what happened in your early years? My father and mother were both born in Paris in 1896. During the first World War (1914–1918), my father, Maurice Meunier, who spoke English fluently, acted as interpreter for the British troops who came to France. In 1919, he married and left with his new wife for China having found a job in a French bank in Peking (now known as Beijing). He spent some 22 years in China and Japan, eventually becoming Manager of the Franco-Chinese Bank in Shanghai. Besides English, he also spoke Spanish flu- ently, and learned Mandarin Chinese which he could write, and also Japanese which he wrote and spoke. In 1930, my mother returned to France by ship for health reasons. Finding that she was pregnant, she decided to have Fig. 1 Jacques (left), Gus Nossal (right) in 1967.

  • The Patients of the Bristol Lunatic Asylum in the Nineteenth Century 1861-1900
    THE PATIENTS OF THE BRISTOL LUNATIC ASYLUM IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY 1861-1900 PAUL TOBIA A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of the West of England, Bristol for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Arts, Creative Industries and Education March 2017 Word Count 76,717 1 Abstract There is a wide and impressive historiography about the British lunatic asylums in the nineteenth century, the vast majority of which are concerned with their nature and significance. This study does not ignore such subjects but is primarily concerned with the patients of the Bristol Asylum. Who were they, what were their stories and how did they fare in the Asylum and how did that change over our period. It uses a distinct and varied methodology including a comprehensive database, compiled from the asylum records, of all the patients admitted in the nineteenth century. Using pivot tables to analyse the data we were able to produce reliable assessments of the range and nature of the patients admitted; dispelling some of the suggestions that they represented an underclass. We were also able to determine in what way the asylum changed and how the different medical superintendents altered the nature and ethos of the asylum. One of these results showed how the different superintendents had massively different diagnostic criteria. This effected the lives of the patients and illustrates the somewhat random nature of Victorian psychiatric diagnostics. The database was also the starting point for our research into the patients as individuals. Many aspects of life in the asylum can best be understood by looking at individual cases.

    Annual ALBERT AND MARY Report L ASKER FOUNDATION 2019 Annual Report 2019 1 LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT & CHAIR OUR MISSION To improve health by accelerating support for medical research through recognition of research excellence, Communicating advocacy, and education. the Importance of Supporting Medical Research The Lasker Foundation celebrates the power of medical research, from fundamental science to initiatives expanding access to clinical advances. This year’s awards — serendipitously, all in the field of immunology — highlight this range. Max D. Cooper and Jacques Miller received the Albert Lasker Basic Medical Research Award for delineating the organizing principle of the adaptive immune system and launching the course of modern immunology. H. Michael Shepard, Dennis J. Slamon, and Axel Ullrich were awarded the Lasker~DeBakey Clinical Medical Research Award for their invention of Herceptin® (trastuzumab), the first monoclonal antibody that blocks a cancer- causing protein, and for its development as a life-saving cancer therapy. The Lasker~Bloomberg Public Service Award was given to Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, for providing sustained access to childhood vaccines around the globe, saving millions of lives, and highlighting the power of vaccination to prevent disease. By shining a light on important advances, the Lasker Awards help us communicate to an international audience how scientific breakthroughs benefit us all. To accelerate support for science, we must ensure our message reaches all constituencies, including the public, scientists, policymakers, and donors. Lasker’s partnerships and programs also help achieve this goal. For example, our annual Public Lecture series connects accomplished scientists to the public to promote the understanding and the promise of biomedical science.
