Autoradiography for Biology and Medicine, Undated
Scope and Content Note
The materials in this collection reflect Boyd's interests in meteorology and science. Of note are Boyd's research notebooks, which contain detailed descriptions of his meteorite site visits and findings, and a manuscript copy (including original notes and corrections) of Boyd's Autoradiography for Biology and Medicine. This manuscript was published in 1955 under the title Autoradiography in Biology and Medicine. Also included are two research reports and several research proposals, including a proposal to travel to the Sahara Desert in West Africa near Chinguetti, Mauritania in order to find an 800,000 ton mass reported to be there. The report contains copies of correspondence as well as a detailed plan, budget, and outline for the trip. These records are arranged alphabetically.
