Abstract
BIOLOGICAL stations are perhaps the most important intellectual catalysts for biological research. The informality of work under simple conditions, the mixing of experienced workers and young students, the holiday feeling of meal-times and discussions, all combine to make the atmosphere exhilarating and to generate ideas. It would be interesting to know how many important advances in biology began in summer schools at biological stations. This is about the only information not given by Dr. H. A. Jack in his essay.
