• catalog abstract "The collection contains Forbes' correspondence and related records on neurophysiology, navigation, and a small quantity on other scientific and personal matters. Forbes' scientific correspondence is with many prominent British and American neurophysiologists, including Charles S. Sherrington, Edgar D. Adrian (1889-1977), Horatio B. Williams, Hallowell Davis, Grayson McCouch, John Eccles, R. W. Gerard (1900-1974), A. C. Redfield (1890-1983), and George Wald (1906- ). The correspondence, 1909-1964, with institutions includes publishers, suppliers of scientific equipment, scientific organizations and institutions, and documents the source of Forbes' grant support, especially from the U.S. Public Health Service. Material, 1907-1964, related to his scientific publications and addresses includes annotated typescripts, drafts, notes, and original data. There are a large number of experimental protocols, 1913-1963, research notebooks, films and tracings which were generated by Forbes and his co-workers. A small cmount of correspondence, publications, and notes, 1828-1967, pertain to Forbes' great uncle Charles Jackson's claim of the discovery of ether as an anesthetic, and to the Drinker-Emerson respirator patent dispute which led to the Harvard Corporation ruling pertaining to faculty-owned patents. Also includes a considerable amount of correspondence, reports, notes, documents, journals, logs, maps, photographs, data, and printed items concerning Forbes' aerial mapping expeditions and navigational projects, both on his own and during his wartime service. The small amount of biographical material contains his school notebooks, 1898-1910, from Milton Academy and Harvard; correspondence, lecture notes, course notebook, lantern slides, and other teaching materials, 1910-1958, from Harvard Medical School; some personal correspondence with individuals, including his cousin Franklin D. Roosevelt, and organizations and clubs.".
