It Was During My Time At Secondary

It Was During My Time At Secondary School That I Abandoned Religion.

This Time At Birmingham Turned Me Into A General Biologist, And Ever Since Then I Have Always Tried To Take A Biological Approach To Any Research Project That I Have Undertaken.

My Main Efforts Focussed On Trying To Identify The Rate Controlling Steps During The Cell Cycle. Crucial For This Analysis Were Wee Mutants That Were Advanced Prematurely Through The Cell Cycle And So Divided At A Reduced Cell Size.

During The Winter My Attention Was Attracted To The Changes In The Stars And Planets In The Sky.

This Possibility Bothered Me As I Thought It Was Not Advisable To Remain In One Academic Environment, And The Long Dark Winters In Edinburgh Could Be Rather Dismal.
