M. M. Needham (Supplement) NCUACS 37/5/92 INTRODUCTION This catalogue is a supplement to that compiled in 1990 (NCUACS 22/7/90). The material has been arranged into sections and numbered to follow the sequence of the previous catalogue, which should be consulted in conjunction with this Supplementary Catalogue. DESCRIPTION OF THE COLLECTION The collection is presented in the order given in the List of Contents. Material supplementary to the 1990 catalogue has been found for the first four sections. Section A, Biographical and Personal, comprises two new items: an undergraduate essay by Needham and a thesis completed c.1925, probably submitted for the Beit Memorial Fellowship. Section B, Cambridge University, consists chiefly of material relating to the foundation of two Cambridge women's colleges: New Hall in 1954 and Lucy Cavendish College, the first women's graduate college in the University, in 1965. The papers reflect Needham's close involvement in their establishment through her membership of the Third Foundation Association (which campaigned for New Hall) and 'the Dining Group’ (or the Society of Women Members of the Regent House who are not Fellows of Colleges) which became Lucy Cavendish College. 1971). There is a complete typescript draft of the '2nd copy' and correspondence 1967-70 with colleagues from whom she sought advice and comments. There is also an index of correspondents. wartime research on chemical defence and post-war research on enzyme biochemistry. 1915-19. All aspects of Needham's research work are documented: from post-graduate and post- Needham's research career. The section includes many undergraduate notebooks used by Machina Carnis: the biochemistry of muscular contraction in its historical development (Cambridge Section D, Publications and Lectures, chiefly consists of further material relating to Needham's book Needham for notes on lectures and practical work for the Natural Sciences Tripos at Girton College doctoral research under F.G.
