  <dc:title>Papers of Otto Loewi</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Some correspondence, papers, publications of Otto Loewi (1873-1961), pharmacologist, physiologist and Foreign Member of the Royal Society. The manuscript material is of a personal rather than a scientific nature and provides an important biographical source about Loewi's escape from Nazi-occupied Austria and his resettlement in the United States of America. Documentation includes: Loewi's passport and authorisations issued by the Nazi government regarding his removal; personal correspondence; collections of articles demonstrating Loewi's wide interest in the arts.

Note: many letters and papers are in German. Rough English translations have been given when possible.</dc:description>
