  • Babcock History Only.Indd
    IndexIndex Babcock History Page 2 In The News Page 14 Memories Page 21 Stephen Moulton Babcock Stephen Moulton Babcock graduated B.A. from Tufts College in 1866 and received a Ph.D. from the University of Göttingen, Germany, in 1879. After working as a teacher and chemist in New York, he joined the staff of the University of Wisconsin, where was professor of agricultural chemistry from 1887 to 1913 and remained for the next 43 years. He was also chief chemist of the Wisconsin Agricultural Experiment Station. The test, which bears his name, was an outgrowth of necessity, as is so often the case with inventions. Dairying was becoming an important industry in Wisconsin and its future depended on an accurate and easy method to determine the intrinsic value of milk. When presented in 1890, the test brought international recognition to the University of Wisconsin. Here he established a laboratory that carried out pioneering research in nutrition and in the chemistry of vitamins. Babcock’s experimental studies in the food requirements of animals paved the way for the work of the American chemist Elmer Verner McCollum (1879-1967) on vitamin A, and it was in Babcock’s laboratory at the university the biochemist Harry Steenbock discovered vitamin D, the sunlight vitamin. Babcock invented an apparatus to determine the viscosity of liquids. The last two decades of his life were spent in basic research on the nature of matter and its relation to energy. Interestingly, Babcock felt that he should derive no personal gain from his testing device, his most famous invention, and no patent was taken out.

E LVEH J EM Any opinions expressed in this memoir are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Academy of Sciences. Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 1954 NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES WASHINGTON D.C. f EDWIN BRET HART 1874-1953 BY CONRAD A. ELVEHJEM In a short obituary of Dr. S. M. Babcock, Professor E. B. Hart started with these words, "To have enjoyed for a quarter of a century the intimate and steadfast friendship of a professional associate and a truly great man is, indeed, a rare privilege, and yet such has been my good fortune in my associa- tion with Stephen Moulton Babcock." Similarly, I have had the good fortune of knowing Professor Hart for a period of 32 years. I first met him as a student in an elementary course in agricultural chemistry in 1921. In my senior year he called me to his office and told me to take over teaching duties in the laboratory immediately since one of the assistants was leaving for a new position. Many of his teaching and research assistants were appointed under similar circumstances. This was the beginning of my close association and intimate friendship with this great teacher, research worker and advisor—an association which continued until the time of his death. During the past twenty-five years hardly a day passed that we did not meet for a conference or just a chat.

Up, Up and Across: Superman, World War II, and the Historical Development of Transmedia Storytelling Abstract: Re-contextualising the industrial evolution of transmedia storytelling – itself typically branded a product of contemporary media convergence – this article examines the industrial role of transmedia storytelling during a period of Classical Hollywood. Exploring the roles of licensing, corporate authorship, and cross-industrial relations amidst the cultural context of World War II, the article draws on Superman and the expansions of the character’s storyworld across multiple media during the 1940s and 1950s to assess how the media of comics, radio, cinema, and television can be recognised during this period as convergent industry platforms where transmedia narratives unfolded.
