摘要

After graduating from Mount Holyoke College in 1948 where I majored in experimental psychology I worked at the College for 2 years with the Johns Hopkins Thermophysiological Unit. My graduate work later at the University of Wisconsin, centering on sensory psychology, culminated in my 1955 PhD thesis on human dark adaptation. I continued work in sensory psychology later with Neal Miller at Yale and then moved to the John B. Pierce Foundation--a Yale affiliate--where I began the studies of thermoregulation that constitute the center of my scientific career. Those studies were largely--later wholly--conducted using microwave energy as a thermal load and were thus published in Bioelectromagnetics even as I played an active role in the Bioelectromagnetics Society. In the beginning this work was centered on the responses of Squirrel Monkeys to thermal loads. Later, serving as Senior Scientist at the Air Force Research Laboratory at San Antonio, I completed an extensive analysis of thermal regulation in humans. I consider this work of special note inasmuch as the extraordinary human thermoregulatory ability was surely among the attributes that were paramount in initially separating humans from the other anthropoid primates.

Pierce Foundation),在那里我开始了温度调节的研究,这是我科学生涯的中心。这些研究大部分(以后全部)利用微波能量作为热负荷进行,因此,即使我在生物电磁学会中发挥了积极作用,这些研究也发表在了《生物电磁学》上。最初,这项工作的重点是松鼠猴对热负荷的响应。后来,我在圣安东尼奥市空军研究实验室担任高级科学家,完成了对人体热调节的广泛分析。我认为这项工作特别引人注目,因为非凡的人类体温调节能力无疑是最初将人类与其他类人灵长类动物区分开的重要属性。
