| biography:
| Cardiologist and clinical scientist, born in Cardiff, S Wales, UK. He trained at University College, Cardiff, and University College Hospital, London, where he remained as a teacher and consultant until his death. He was the first to completely master the use of electrocardiograms, establishing the basic parameters which still govern their interpretation. During his later years he turned his attention to the physiology of cutaneous blood vessels and the mechanisms of pain. He fought for full-time clinical research posts to investigate clinical science. |
