Professor Graham and Dr. Campbell had taken over the whole clinical aspect of the investigation. “

Best replied, ‘If you get out, I get out.’ There was silence for some moments. I thought of all the joy of the early experiments which we had known together. Here was loyalty. “


” Best and I worked in the sub-basement of the old medical building day and night. Time, meals, sleep – all were of secondary consideration. We had to get insulin into a form that was refined enough for continued clinical use. “
