Synopsis

The Harvey Society was founded in 1905 by 13 New York City scientists and physicians with the purpose of forging a closer relationship between the purely practical side of medicine and the results of laboratory investigation. The "Harvey Society Lectures" reflect the evolution of physiology and physiological chemistry into biochemistry and the development of molecular biology from the roots of bacteriology and biochemistry in this century.

From the Back Cover

Lectures from the venerable society for the diffusion of knowledge of the medical sciences

The Harvey Society was founded in 1905 by thirteen New York City scientists and physicians with the purpose of forging a " closer relationship between the purely practical side of medicine and the results of laboratory investigation."

Topics covered in Series 97, 2001-2002 include sensing and signaling DNA damage; mammalian stem cells; nature, nurture, and genetic scripts; P53, mdm2, and cancer; viral membrane fusion and its inhibition; and genomics approaches to photoreceptor development and disease.
