WOODRUFF (Sir Michael, Francis, Addison) - Lot 301
WOODRUFF (Sir Michael, Francis, Addison) London, 1911 - 2001. British biologist and immunologist. Autograph letter signed "Michael Woodruff", addressed to a colleague. No place or date. 1 page in-8 oblong, in English. Interesting scientific letter in which Sir Michael Woodruff eagerly replies to a French colleague, stressing the importance he attaches to medical cooperation between France and Great Britain. The tone, both courteous and committed, highlights the spirit of openness and international collaboration that characterized post-war scientific circles. A major figure in modern immunology, Woodruff played an essential role in the development of organ transplantation, particularly kidney transplantation, and in the study of the mechanisms of immune rejection. Although brief, this document bears witness to his involvement in European scientific exchanges and his interest in transnational collaborations.
