Abstract
[In normal circumstances, Nature does not encourage duplication of publication. The Editor, however, considers the present case to be the very rare exception. The following article is the substance of the Trueman Wood Lecture delivered by Prof. E. B. Chain before the Royal Society of Arts on June 19, with the Right Hon. Lord Nathan, chairman of Council of the Society, in the chair. The entire lecture is published in the Journal of the Royal Society of Arts of October 1963. In view of the considerable contributions which Prof. Chain (himself a Nobel Laureate) has made to drug research, and the importance which is to-day attached to the subject, practically the entire lecture is also reproduced here, by kind permission of the Royal Society of Arts and Prof. E. B. Chain.]
