They were received from Mrs. Joan Whiteley (daughter), who retains during her lifetime the biographical material listed as Items 1 — 6, Professor Keilin was of Russian-Jewish extraction brought up in Warsaw. He was a student at the Sorbonne and began his scientific work in Paris before moving to Cambridge; his cosmopolitan background is reflected in the many foreign languages used in his notebooks, publications and corres— pondence, which are noted in the handlist. Professor Keilin began his scientific career’as an entomologist and parasitologist, and retained his interest in these subjects throughout his working life in addition to his developing concentration on the biochemistry of cell respiration. For this reason it has not always been possible to date He suffered from asthma and travelled little; this, “working papers precisely. together with the very wide range of his scientific interests, was responsible for his extensive correspondence. The collection includes material belonging or relating to other for example Dr. C.A. Macliumn, an early and neglected precursor scientists, of Keilin's work on cytochrome; there are Sir Ronald Ross and Professor G.H.F.

Keilin (Supplement) CSAC 118/9/86 GENERAL INTRODUCTION PROVENANCE The material was received from Mrs. Joan Whiteley (Keilin's daughter) at various dates June-December 1986. Although the collection is essentially additional to that catalogued in 1973 (CSAC 3/73) it also incorporates documents relating to the Molteno Institute Cambridge (item 6 of the 1973 catalogue) previously retained in family hands DESCRIPTION OF THE COLLECTION The supplementary collection is particularly strong on biographical material relating to Keilin and his family, and includes several accounts, translations, summaries, explanatory notes and identifications prepared by Mrs. Whiteley. There is documentation for the early life and work in Paris of Keilin, his wife Section B contains a little research material for the Cambridge period and some from Manchester during the First World War, and by his daughter from Leeds during the Anna and his sister Marie (both doctors), and more sparsely of other members of their families. Of some interest are the sequences of letters written to Keilin by his wife Second World War, when each was pursuing a medical career. None of Keilin's replies vey of his struggles with ill-health and his unassuming and endearing personality. The to his wife survive but his frequent letters to Joan (A.73-A.78) are very interesting for documentary record in Section A is complemented by photographs assembled in Section E. their news of his research ideas and Cambridge affairs as well as for the picture they con- at his death, completed by his daughter and published in 1966. pondence for his own book The history of cell respiration and cytochrome left unfinished useful additional documentation for Keilin's long connection with the Molteno Institute before, during and following his appointments as Quick Professor and Director. The material held back from the 1973 collection is incorporated here. Section C (Lectures and Publications) is chiefly of interest for Keilin's draft review for Nature of a book by Warburg (C.3) and for its extensive drafts and corres- D. Keilin (Supplement) CSAC 118/9/86 Section D (Correspondence), though slight, includes some exchanges with A. Szent-Gyérgyi and O. Warburg. Section E contains several interesting photographs of all aspects of Keilin's life, work, colleagues and family from 1907 to shortly before his death. Many of these were assembled and re-photographed by Mrs. Whiteley and bear dates and identifications by her. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Our main thanks are to Mrs. Whiteley for her care in assembling, translating and identifying the material. | We also acknowledge with thanks the help of Dr. G.C.
