What the Database Includes
The 'Studies of the British Chemical Community' project The project uses a collective biography approach to investigate the social history of chemistry in Britain between the 1870s and the 1970s. Details on the life histories of just under 9,000 chemists are being collected and entered in a computer database. The chemists included in the database have been carefully chosen either as part of representative samples of the membership of the principal British chemical institutions or as graduates in chemistry who studied at University College, London, one of the UK's leading chemical departments. The database is a developing research tool, which is constantly being updated. The biographical data available on this website are drawn from the project's database. For data protection reasons, the website does not include data on living individuals. Therefore, this website does not contain data on the project's complete samples and should not be used for statistical purposes.
