The Royal Society: Science in the Making

Referee's report by Charles Robert Harington, on a paper 'Synthetic oestrogenic compounds related to stilbene and diphenylethane III' by Edward Charles Dodds, R L Huang, Wilfred Lawson and Sir Robert Robinson

Reference number: RR/78/52

Date: 17 July 1952

Description

Sectional committee: Physiology and Medical Sciences

Paper reference code: B38

Recommended for publication in the Proceedings. Harrington would have reoccommended the paper for a chemical journal, however as the Royal Society has published very similar earlier papers in the same field it should be accepted for the Proceedings given the 'high quality of the work'.

[Published in Proceedings B, 1953].
