Abstract

This booklet, one of the smaller volumes of the Ciba Foundation series, consists of eight papers presented at the May 1966 Conference on Mongolism, organized in commemoration of Dr. John Langdon Haydon Down, who a century ago published his original report on mongolism. It was fully appropriate, therefore, to begin the conference with a biographical sketch of Langdon Down by Lord Brain, Chairman of the Executive Council of the Ciba Foundation. Various epidemiologic, cytogenetic and biochemical problems of mongolism were discussed thereafter. The topics are not related to each other but present recent research done by the speakers.
