Abstract
SINCE the Galton Laboratory Serum Unit (Medical Research Council), formerly at Cambridge, closed in May last, Dr. R. R. Race, the former director, has moved to the Lister Institute, London, where he is in charge of the new Blood Group Research Unit of the Medical Research Council. Dr. A. E. Mourant, who formerly assisted Dr. Race, has become director of the new Blood Group Reference Laboratory of the Ministry of Health. This Laboratory, which is part of the Ministry of Health Blood Transfusion Service, is also at the Lister Institute, and will provide grouping serum and investigate clinical blood-group problems. The juxtaposition of these two laboratories will be of great mutual benefit and ensure the close association of the theoretical and practical sides of this subject. Hospitals and medical men requiring grouping serum should, in the first instance, apply to their local regional transfusion centre, through which grouping serum will be issued.
