The Royal Society: Science in the Making

Referee's report by Charles Galton Darwin, on a paper 'The electrical properties of the muscle fibre membrane' by Bernard Katz

Reference number: RR/71/164

Date: 1948

Description

Sectional Committee: Physiology and Medical Sciences

Recommended for publication in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London'. Can only give a general impression as much of the matter is beyond his understanding. The work is good but leisurely in style. Suggests not all of the experimental precautions need to be outlined in such detail. Suggests someone other than the author go through the work with the aim of reducing its length.

[Published in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London']
