1940s
Profiles from the 1940s are like gold dust which is why we treasure them, like our graduates treasure their memories of Edinburgh.

From a Kindertransport to a fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, Gerald Wiener's life and career in animal genetics is worthy of a book; luckily one has been written.
Mary MacLean
In 1941, a coffee was a rare treat for Mary McLean and her fellow students. Her advice to current students is to drink less coffee and to dance your way through university, as she did.
