Weis-Fogh CSAC 65/3/79 GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO THE COLLECTION Torkel Weis-Fogh was born in Aarhus, Denmark, in 1922, the son of a banker and accountant. In 1940 he became a student at Copenhagen University and his earliest researches were in soil microbiology. However, in 1947 he started work as research assistant to the distinguished Danish physiologist and Nobel prizewinner August Krogh, and the study of the desert locust Schistocerca Gregaria, begun in Krogh's laboratory, was to occupy Weis-Fogh for much ofhis life. After Krogh's death in 1949, Weis-Fogh continued as head of the laboratory until 1953,amassing a wealth of data relating to the flight mechanics of the desert locust (see Section B). A year at the CopenhagenInstitute of Neurophysiology was followed by four years at Cambridge with a Rockefeller Fellowship followed by a Balfour Studentship. At the endofthis period Weis-Fogh wrote to Sir James Gray: 'Hanne [Weis-Fogh'sfirst wife ] and | know very well how much we have to thank you and Lady Gray for. Cambridge just reshaped us and in such a pleasant way that we did not protest in the process. It was an immensely valuable time for us and one weshall never forget and often remember’, (See G.47.) documentedin this collection. See especially Section C. During his last year at Cambridge, in the course of his research into the work- the Latin resilire - to spring back). Both the work surrounding the discovery of in insect cuticle. The discovery was announced at the XVth International Congress of Zoology, July 1958 (see B. 136), and the protein was later named 'resilin' (from resilin and subsequent research into its physical and chemical properties are well ings of insect flight muscle, Weis-Fogh isolated a new type of rubber-like protein formation of insect cuticle, mainly carried out during 1967 - 69, led to a study Cambridge as Professor of Zoology and Head of the Department of Zoology, and this position enabled him to pursue several related research interests simultane- The years 1958-66 were spent in Copenhagen as Professor of Zoophysiology (a chair specially created for Weis-Fogh), and most of his research during that time was concentrated on analysing the new protein. In 1966 he returned to ously (see introduction to Section D). An investigation into the mode of T. Weis-Fogh CSAC 65/3/79 of the molecular basis of resilin and elastin, and the discovery of a new contractile mechanism in the spasmonemes of protozoa. __In connection with these studies Weis-Fogh was also instrumental in the setting up of the Biological Microprobe Laboratory, Department of Zoology, Cambridge, to develop techniques of electron- probe X-ray microanalysis on frozen-hydrated soft biological material. These projects are not so well documented as Weis-Fogh's earlier work, since much of the research was continued after his death. Weis-Fogh neverlost his early interest in the problems of insect flight and he returned to them with renewed vigour during this period. In 1973 he published a paper containing a mathematical explanation for the flight of very small insects which orthodox aerodynamic theory had been unable to account for. For back- ground material to this paper see D.48 - D.53. This discovery was named by Sir James Lighthill 'the Weis-Fogh mechanism of lift generation’. Weis-Fogh was to have collaborated with Lighthill in a major project to study biological fluid dynamics, but plans for this were interrupted by his death. For material relating to this see D.58 - D.62. Unhappily, in 1971 Weis-Fogh's wife was killed in a car accident in which suicide in Cambridge on 13 November 1975. To the end ofhis life Weis-Fogh retained strong links with Denmark. He that he ever recovered from the shock and bereavement, or indeed from the several relapses of health during this period (see especially F.45, F.61, F.65), and the obituary of Weis-Fogh by E. Bredsdorff (see A.1) mentions bouts of physical damage which he sustained. The correspondence for 1972-75 documents he himself was badly injured. Although he returned to his laboratory after only depression that at times 'could be so deep that we fearedfor his life’. Sadly these fears turned out to be only too well-founded, and Weis-Fogh committed a few months and was committed to extensive research projects, it seems unlikely In 1961 he was invited to give the Prather Lectures in Biology at Harvard remained a Danish citizen (see A.9) and maintained a cottage at Tibirke to which material in the collection is in Danish and this has normally been indicated in he returned whenever he could. He was bilingual and when thinking on paper the catalogue. He also maintained close links with colleagues in the United States. would transfer at random from English to Danish and back again. Much of the T. Weis-Fogh CSAC 65/3/79 University, and his subsequent tour of universities and laboratories in the US pro- vided many valuable contacts with whom he continued to maintain close ties through correspondence and through meetings at conferences and symposia (see Sections F and G). Weis-Fogh's papers were received from the Department of Zoology, by courtesy of Dr. D.A. Parry, Head of the Department, in instalments during 1978 after the removal of departmental material or that related to continuing research projects. This meant that Weis-Fogh's ordering, especially of the later correspondence, had been broken and there are some omissions (see especially Section D). However, the collection still comprises a very full range of working papers, photographs and data and some unpublished material. Weis-Fogh kept some correspondence with the papers to which it related, and this has been left in place; general scientific correspondence is presented in alphabetical order in Section G and an index of correspondents will be found on pp. 108-120. Titles and descriptions in inverted commas are those which appear on the The help of Mr. George Mewis and Mr. Barry Fuller in identifying photographs and documents, and of Dr. P.C.H.Wernberg-Mgller in advising on some of the the English reader. documents.

Weis-Fogh CSAC 65/3/79 SECTION A BIOGRAPHICAL AND PERSONAL A.1 - A.30 Very little personal material survives. This can largely be attributed to Weis-Fogh's personal circumstances towards the endofhislife and in particular after the death of his first wife in 1971. Fortunately the correspondencein Sections F and G contains many exchangesof a more personal nature interleaved with scientific matters. Of particular interest is the correspondence in A.9 conveying Weis-Fogh's decision to retain Danish citizenship after the death ofhis first wife, even though it could have been more advantageous to his career to become a British citizen. He retained a cottage in Denmark and returned there when- ever possible for holidays or to write; many of the drafts and correspondence in the collection are headed 'Tibirke', the location of his Danish home. Material relating to Cambridge University 1966-75, when Weis- Fogh wasProfessor of Zoology and Head of the Department of Zoologyis also included here (A.10 - A.22). T.

Weis-Fogh CSAC 65/3/79 B.1-B.49 EARLY RESEARCH AND WORK IN AUGUST KROGH'S LABORATORY 1941-53 Weis-Fogh's earliest scientific work, on soil micro-biology, was carried out at the Molslaboratoriet, Aarhus, while he was studying for his Mag. Scient. at Copenhagen University. The work resulted in the award in 1944 of the Gold Medal of Copenhagen University, anda paper ‘Ecological investigations on mites and collemboles in the soil' (1948) which laid new foundations for detailed research in this subject. Virtually no papers survive for this period (though see B.1). In 1947 Weis-Fogh becameresearch assistant to the distinguished Danish physio- logist August Krogh in his private laboratory at Gentofte, and on Krogh's death in 1949, Weis-Fogh became head of the laboratory until its closure in 1953. The main subject for study in the laboratory was the desert locust Schistocerca Gregaria, with which most of the papers in this Section are concerned. While Krogh's main interest was in physiology and metabolism, Weis-Fogh undertook a study of the mechanics and energetics of locust flight using a specially constructed roundabout to which specimens were attached (see B.6, B.13, B.49), and a wind tunnel of been kept as a sequence (see, e.g., B.30 - B.43). ltem B.49 relates to a film 'How locusts fly' made by Weis-Fogh and Martin tunnel under conditions sufficiently close to those of free flight to be practicalle (sic) and biologically meaningful’ (see A.9, letter to O. Lowenstein). An extensive amount of material has survived from this important period in Weis-Fogh's life which provided the foundations of his later research. Someofit was reworked andtransferred to other Sections (see C.27, D.40, D.41) but enough is presented chronologically except where a groupof items on the same subject has remains to give an idea of the quantity and variety of data collected.

At the end of 1954 he moved to Cambridge where he continued the experiments, and the work resulted in the publication of 3 joint papers in 1956 and 1957.

Weis-Fogh CSAC 65/3/79 Early work and research on locust flight B.67-B.143 MATERIAL RELATING TO THE 'BIOLOGY AND PHYSICS OF LOCUST FLIGHT' The material is divided into 2 sections. B.67 - B.77 covers Parts | - V all of which were published in R. Soc. Lond. Phil. Trans. B, and B.78 - B.143 covers Parts VI - IX of which only Part VIII was published (in J. exp. Biol.), although Weis-Fogh later produced several papers based on material collected for Parts VI and VII (see, e.g., C.26, D.40-D.42). See also G.60, G.76. Parts | - V The original concept, formed in about 1952, was for a series of 10 papers to be written by Weis-Fogh in collaboration with Martin Jensen, covering all aspects of the biology and physics of locust flight. Parts | - IV were published in 1956, but the discovery of resilin by Weis-Fogh in 1958 (see B. 136 and Section C) followed by his return to Copenhagen as Professor of Zoology disrupted work on Part V with the result that it was finally published only in 1962, after major revision (see B.74 - B77}. 2 pp. ms. notes headed 'Whypositive criticism is badly needed', explaining the difficulties of getting the results of experimental work done in Krogh's laboratory into a form suitable for publica- tion. The ms. ends by itemising the material in preparation on 'The flight of locusts' as 2 papers on flight muscles, 3 on physio- logy and 10 on biology and physics 'which are in the process of preparation and are approachingtheir final stage'. The notes are undated but probably belong c. 1953-54. Ms, draft of titles for the 10 papers with an indication of the number of pages, figures and tables for each paper. differs considerably from that published with Papers | - IV in 1956. The date is probably 1953-54.

The work for Part VI on elasticity (see B. 103 - B. 132) is closely related to the experiments on locust flight muscle described in B.50 seq.

Section C roughly corresponds with the period during which Weis-Fogh was Professor of Zoophysiology at Copenhagen 1958-66, although there is some material that overlaps with Section B (see, e.g., C.1 - C.6, C.20). Weis-Fogh's work on muscle and elasticity in Cambridge for Parts V - VII of the ‘Biology and Physics of Locust Flight' led to the discovery (see especially C.5 for material on nomenclature) and, more indirectly, in the A grant from the United States Air Force European Office of Aerospace devoted to an investigation of the physical and chemical properties of resilin, but Weis-Fogh also worked on several aspects of insect physiology including the tracheal system and muscle action potential in locusts (see C.12 - C.30). in 1958 of a new rubberlike protein in insect cuticle which was later named resilin.

Weis-Fogh CSAC 65/3/79 Research in Cambridge BIOLOGICAL MICROPROBE LABORATORY In 1971 the Science Research Council awarded a joint research grant to Weis-Fogh and four collaborators (P. Echlin, B.L. Gupta, T.A. Hall and R.B. Moreton) to enable a series of morphological and analytical studies to be carried out on frozen-hydrated soft biological material. This resulted in the setting up of the Biological Microprobe Laboratory in the Department of Zoology, Cambridge. The technique of X-ray microanalysis in the scanning electron microscope normally used dehydrated tissues which retained their structure intact but suffered from loss or redistribution of electrolytes; the team's first major achievement was to perfect a technique for the preparation of quick-frozen hydrated tissues.

Weis-Fogh CSAC 65/3/79 Research in Cambridge D.36-D.39 RESEARCH ON 'INTRACELLULAR AND EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX PROTEINS' This investigation grew out of Weis-Fogh's study of the formation of insect cuticle (see D.12 - D.24) and work by W.B. Amos, one of Weis-Fogh's research students, on the contractile mechanism of the spasmonemesin Protozoa (see F.39). Weis-Fogh wrote informally to the Science Research Council about the possibility of applying for a grant to study the subject in April 1971 (see D.36); the car accident a few days later in which his wife was killed and he himself seriously injured delayed the presentation of a formal grant application until April 1972. As with the previous item, the collection containsvery little material relating to this project because the work continued after Weis- Fogh's death in 1975.

Weis-Fogh CSAC 65/3/79 Research in Cambridge D.40-D.57 RESEARCH ON ANIMAL FLIGHT A major feature of this period was Weis-Fogh's renewedinterest in the problemsof flight, now widened to include somebirds (especially the hummingbird) as well as insects. In 1973 he published a paper in J. exp. Biol. entitled 'Quick estimates of flight fitness in hovering animals, including novel mechanisms for lift production’, which contained a new aerodynamic theory for the generation oflift in small insects which had previously defied explanation in mathematical terms (see D.48 - D.53). Interest in flight extended to other forms of locomotion especially to comparative studies and 'scaling problems' as will be seen from correspondence at F.53 - F.54, F.58 - F.59, F.66 - F.70, and finally led to the formulation of a project to study biological fluid dynamics in collaboration with Sir James Lighthill (see D.58 - D.62).

T. Weis-Fogh CSAC 65/3/79 Research in Cambridge D.58-D.62 PROJECT FOR RESEARCH ON 'FLUID DYNAMICS IN BIOLOGY' An application to the Science Research Council for a grant for research in this subject in collaboration with Sir James Lighthill was completed in October 1975 shortly before Weis-Fogh's death. It was to have been the culmination of a collaboration which had begun in 1972 (see D.50). Weis-Fogh's growing interest in this subject is well documented in Section F (see correspondence in F.53 - F.54, F.58 - F.59) and led him to organise with Lighthill a small symposium in Cambridge on the 'Biodynamics of Animal Locomotion', 1-5 September 1975 (see F.66 - FQ), The material in this Section consists of drafts and correspondence rethe grant application, which was not submitted due to Weis-Fogh's death on 13 November 1975.

Weis-Fogh CSAC 65/3/79 SECTION E LECTURES, ADDRESSES, PUBLICATIONS 1948-76 E.1 - E.75 The material is presented as follows: mt. = E520 University lectures and courses delivered or attended by Weis-Fogh, 1955-75 B.2he £.74 Lectures and addresses, 1948-75 E75 Reprints of published papers, 1949-76 Much of the material in the first part is in typescript and was designed for distribution to students rather than as a basis for lectures delivered by Weis- Fogh (though see E.6, E.12, E.15, E.19). Papers have survived from both Copenhagen (1958-65) and Cambridge (1968-75). Occasionally brief corres- pondenceis included with the lectures. Weis-Fogh kept notes for talks he had given in rough chronological groups, thus enabling approximate dates to be suggested for the few undated mss.

T. Weis-Fogh CSAC 65/3/79 SECTION F CONFERENCES, VISITS, LECTURE TOURS 1955-76 F.1 - F.76 Weis-Fogh attached considerable importance to conferences and symposia because of the opportunities they presented for exchanging ideas with people working in the same field in different parts of the world. In particular, he attended the regular meetings of the Society for Experimental Biology whenever possible, and frequently read papers there (see below, passim). In 1975 he organised, with Sir James Lighthill, a small but influential symposium on 'Bio- dynamics of Animal Locomotion' (see F.66 - F.70). The material below mainly consists of correspondence about arrangements for conferences, etc., but there are also some drafts of papers presented by Weis-Fogh, and these are itemised in the catalogue.
