(Monday's recorded broadcast)
by Magnus Pyke Ph.D., F.R.S.E.
It is only twelve years since the first International Congress of Biochemistry met, but such has been the expansion of their science that at the Fourth Congress, held in Vienna recently, twenty-four lecture halls had to be used simultaneously for a week to accommodate the 1,700 lecturers. Dr. Pyke attended the Congress and in this talk he reflects on the great age of biochemistry in which we are living and on the value of such congresses in promoting international understanding.
