Sir John Eccles, the neourophysiologist and expert on synaptic transmission, studied medicine at Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar. He remained to begin his research career at Exeter College and was then a tutor at Magdalen, before returning to his native Australia and a series of prominent posts. The philosophy of the mind was always a great interest for him. He died this day in 1997. Credit: ODNB
