Description:''Perhaps unsurprisingly given his physical physiological commitments, Sherrington invested significantly in Macdonald's research. [See e.g. letter from C.S. Sherrington to H. Cushing dated January 22 1902 and C.S. Sherrington to H. Cushing dated July 7 1905 (Sherrington Collection, Box WCG 1-37. WCG 32.6 and WCG 32.13). This investment has been little-noticed: for example Smith's major study of the term does not address Macdonald's work. Cf. Swazey 1969, 73-74.']'
Relevant passage from Sherrington:
'Macdonald is flourishing at Sheffield, & will have a fine Laboratory. I am going over to attend the opening ceremony next Wednesday.'
