E.mail responses
to the 'Remembered Vignettes' written by me
This is so vivid. I have spent the best part of thirty
years chasing Claude Bernard and his internal environment! This was the
topic of the oration I gave earlier this year at the SLMA. Professor
Koch's lectures were exactly as you described them. Their
significance dawned on me 10 years later when I started doing research in Leeds. Things went the full circle for me when I
was invited by the Physiologists in Colombo
to deliver his memorial lecture. Professor Basnayake was in the audience
and he came up to me before the lecture and asked me if I remembered him!
How could one forget these people?
Best wishes,
Tissa
