Prague conference

The first publications in English to recognize the work of Belousov and Zhabotinsky were by the Danish biochemist Hans Degn (1967). He measured the cerium(lV) concentration, platinum electrode potential (responding to the ratio [Ce(lV)]/[Ce(lII)]), and the evolution of carbon dioxide in the BZ reaction, but he was unable to propose a complete mechanism for the system. The Prague conference in 1968 afforded an opportunity for Zhabotinsky and some of the other Russian scientists to present their work and to meet some of the more intrepid Westerners. 

Arthur Winfree, a biologist with an interest in spatial and temporal patterns, had attended the Prague conference and had decided to pursue the study of pattern formation in the BZ reaction. In 1972, the cover of Science magazine featured Winfree s photo of spiral wave patterns in the BZ reaction (Winfree, 1972). Figure 1.7 shows such patterns. Field and Noyes immediately saw how to understand the development of such patterns with the aid of the FKN mechanism, and they published an explanation the same year (Field and Noyes, 1972).

In September 1971 the seventh International Conference of Chemotherapy in Prague contained a full session on the use of platinum drugs. A set of papers will be published. Many of the points dealt with in passing in the above article are treated in detail confirming the general outline of the chemical factors which are of importance. The compound cis- Pt(NHs)2Cl2 proved sufficiently successful in tests on tumours in mice that it is now being used in clinical trials in the United States of America.
