Cambridge Research

Laboratory notebooks covering the period that Heatley was located at St Johns College, Cambridge, 1933-1936.

From 1933 Heatley undertook post-graduate studies (biochemical research) at the Sir William Dunn Biochemical Institute, University of Cambridge, under Sir F G Hopkins and Dr J Needham. This research up to 1936 was funded by a grant from the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research and then the Benn W Levy Studentship.

Heatley's PhD thesis, produced during this time, was entitled "The application of microchemical methods to biological problems" (see series D/3 for copies of the thesis).

Note that the last notebook, A/1/8, mostly covers work carried out in Oxford 1943-1946, but the notebook was started in 1936 when he was at Cambridge.

These notebooks document the results and observations of Heatley's biochemical experiments, including calculations, graphs and drawings of apparatus.

1932-1946
