Comment
Catherine Olding Hebb (1912-1978) was a canadian born physiologist. She obtained her doctorate under Babkin, and moved to Edinburgh and Cambridge to work with Ide Burgh Daly and Feldberg. She joined the ARC institute in Babraham where she did extensive biochemical and physiological work on ACh as a neurotransmitter. Her brother Donald O Hebb was a prominent canadian Neuropsychologist. obituary
