	John Carew Eccles Summary
		John Carew Eccles was born in Melbourne, Australia, on January 27, 1903, the first of two children of two teachers.
		John Franklin Enders was born in Connecticut and graduated from Yale University in 1920.
		Eccles and his colleagues analyzed a newly reported form of spinal inhibition reported by Frank and Fuortes in 1957 and found that it was due to reduced transmitter release from the presynaptic terminals of the test fibers, a finding they described as presynaptic inhibition.

		John Carew Eccles was born on 27 January 1903 at Northcote, a suburb of Melbourne.
		Eccles was deeply impressed by Popper's main tenet, that scientific hypotheses should be both clearly formulated and testable by experiment, and that the strength of a hypothesis depended on the failure of rigorous investigation to falsify it rather than on evidence which apparently supported it.
		Eccles was awarded a Royal Medal in 1962, and the award in 1963 of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, shared with A.L.Hodgkin and A.F.Huxley, recognized his fundamental contributions to the ionic mechanisms of synaptic transmission in the brain.

	RSNZ/Academy Yearbook 1999/John Eccles
		Eccles was proud of the fact that "the majority of the senior faculty of the newly founded Medical School at Auckland University" had been his students.
		Eccles was still full of energy and ideas, but he faced the problem of a compulsory retirement age of 65, and realised that the research facilities which he required would not be available to him after 1968.
		Eccles was appointed to a Distinguished Professorship in Physiology and Biophysics.

		John Carew Eccles was born in Melbourne, Australia, on January 27th, 1903.
		In addition to this purely scientific study of the brain, Eccles has followed Sherrington in developing a philosophy of the human person that is consonant with the whole of brain science.
		Eccles was Professor of Physiology and Biophysics at the State University of New York, Buffalo 1968-75.

	Sir John Carew Eccles (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Working at the Australian National University, Canberra (1951-66), Eccles showed that the excitement of a nerve cell by an impulse causes one kind of synapse to release into the neighbouring cell a substance (probably acetylcholine) that expands the pores in nerve membranes.
		In the same way he found that an excited nerve cell induces another type of synapse to release into the neighbouring cell a substance that promotes outward passage of positively charged potassium ions across the membrane, reinforcing the existing polarity and inhibiting the transmission of an impulse.
		Eccles' work, based largely on the findings of Hodgkin and Huxley, had a profound influence on the medical treatment of nervous diseases and research on kidney, heart, and brain function.

	Sir John Eccles - Biography
		In 1937 Eccles left England for Australia to become Director of a small medical research unit in Sydney, where he was fortunate to have the distinguished collaboration of Bernard Katz and Stephen Kuffler.
		In 1955 this stage of the investigation was described in the Herter Lectures of Johns Hopkins University, and was published in 1957 as The Physiology of Nerve Cells.

	Gifford Lecture Series - Biography - John Eccles
		Also during this period of research, Eccles was involved in a controversy about whether synaptic transmission was electrical or chemical in nature, with Eccles himself arguing for the electrical theory against fellow researcher Dale, the proponent of the experimentally successful chemical theory.
		Eccles left England in 1937 for Sydney to direct a small medical research facility, working for the next six years mainly in the electrophysical analysis of the joints of cats and frogs.
		In his last few decades, Eccles looked more and more at the larger picture in which his research was involved and dealt with philosophical questions, developing his own answers to basic questions such as what it means to be human.

		Although he was wrong in this hypothesis, his arguments led himself and others to perform some of the experiments which proved chemical synaptic transmission.
		Eccles was a devout theist and a sometime Catholic, and is regarded by many Christians as an examplar of the successful melding of a life of science with one of faith.
		(Occasionally, if Eccles found himself in strange surroundings on a Sunday, he would go to some pains to find a church where he could attend a Mass.)"
