RSActivityCroonian lecturer (1900)
He wrote a report on his work concerning sleeping sickness, entitled Histological Observations on Sleeping Sickness and other Trypanosome Infections, which was published as no. 7 of the Reports of the Sleeping Sickness Commission of the Royal Society in December 1906.
RelationshipsParents: Henry Mott, of Brighton, Sussex, who was of Huguenot descent, and Caroline, daughter of William Fuller, of Pulborough, Sussex.
Spouse: Georgina Alexandra, daughter of George Thomas Soley, shipowner, of Liverpool (1885).
Children: Four daughters.
PublishedWorksRCN 18664
RCN 18691
OtherInfoNoted for his work on shell-shock.
Owing to his research, the nervous system disease called 'general paralysis of the insane' was in fact a manifestation of syphillis and associated with the presence of the specific spirochaete.
He demonstrated the close relation between the nervous system and the sexual organs manifested in dementia praecox, as well as the association of deficient mental condition with degeneration of the thyroid and other endocrine organs.
Mott was a council member of the Eugenics Society in 1911. He believed that mental illness was inherited due to “degenerate family lines” that worsened until dying out, though his reference cases and statistics were interrogated by other eugenicists.
