Item description from seller

8vo. 418-423 pp. Self-wraps. Ownership rubber stamp of Norman Horowitz, California Institute of Technology. FINE. Beale was with the Dept. of Animal Genetics, Edinburgh University. WITH: BEALE. "Antigen Variation in Paramecium Aurelia, Variety 1." Offprint from: Genetics, vol. 37, no. 1, 1952. 8vo. 62-74 pp. Self-wraps. FINE. Full list available on request. "In 1947, back at Cold Spring Harbour, he received a Rockefeller Fellowship which required him to return to the UK. He was duly offered a lectureship by C.H. Waddington at the Institute of Animal Genetics in Edinburgh where Beale continued his work on Paramecium. He was promoted to Senior Lecturer in 1954 and Reader in 1959 before being appointed a Royal Society Research Professor in 1963, a position he held until his retirement in 1978. At the Institute, Beale became close friends with Henrik Kacser and Charlotte 'Lotte' Auerbach, about whom he would later write an account. / With funding from the University of Edinburgh and the Wellcome Trust, Beale was able to design and build dedicated research laboratories, including the Protozoan Genetics building for his research group. This group worked on the genetics of Paramecium and on protozoan parasites, and attracted visiting scientists from all over the world. Over the next few decades the research of Beale and his colleagues incorporated the effect of the cytoplasm on serotypes in P. primaurelia, symbionts and 'metagons' in Paramecium (although Beale later declared his 'metagon hypothesis' defunct) and mitochondria in Paramecium." â" University of Edinburgh Archive & Mss. Collections. / Geoffrey Herbert Beale was previously with the Dept. of Zoology at Indiana University, Bloomington. He is known as the founder of malaria genetics, and a Royal Society professor. He also taught at the University of Edinburgh.
