Megaw was awarded a Hertha Ayrton Research Fellowship, which enabled her to spend the 1934/1935 year as a postdoctoral researcher with Herman Mark at the University of Vienna, and the following year with Francis Simon at the Clarendon Laboratory, Oxford. Between 1936 and 1943, she taught at Bedford High School and then at Bradford Girls Grammar... 

Until 1945, no one had a clue. That year, the Oxford crystallographer Dorothy Hodgkin solved the structure of penicillin F (the version made by the Oxford group), finding that it contained a four-membered [3-lactam ring, which was the clue to how penicillin worked. As any high-school chemist can tell you, a four-membered ring is normally unstable and very reactive. The...

Despite the above criticisms, the quality of the chemistry graduate from Oxford has always been very high by any judgement. In part this owes itself to the quality of the intake plus in fair measure dedication in the tutorial system. There is, however, no reason that the course could not be improved noting the aspirations of students and the likely concerns of tomorrow s society. After Part II, research-minded students do not just do research in Oxford but have entered into research groups in other UK Universities and then proceeded to doctorate and post-doctorate experience all over the world, where many have proved to be very distinguished. Others have entered industry, and also commerce, but very few have become school teachers.
