The Beevers-Lipson strips were a new and important advance in calculation methods. Hodgkin met Beevers in Manchester in Nov. 1935 and was the first customer for the strips when they became commercially available (Ferry pp.115-116).

Report of meeting held 17 Nov. 1938, with papers by T. Svedberg, K. Linderstrøm-Lang, K.O. Pedersen, F.J. and J. Philpot, D.M. Wrinch, A. Neuberger, W.T. Astbury, J.F. Danielli, J.D. Bernal and others. This was the occasion when Hodgkin gave a short, much-praised (and apparently unexpected) paper, under her maiden name one month before the birth of her son Luke (Ferry pp.170-172). Her contribution is on pp.35-36.

These are all autograph manuscript, rarely fully dated. They are presented in approximately chronological order, with dates assigned on the basis of content or reference. All aspects of Hodgkin's life and contact with Bernal are dealt with, beginning with her first visit to his laboratory (Aug. 1932) and the Ravenna conference (Sept. 1932). After her return to Oxford there are many references to her visit to consult him in Cambridge or arrangements for left-wing political meetings,…

Photocopies of letters to Bernal sent to Hodgkin from the Bernal collection at Cambridge University Library. Perhaps sent to Hodgkin when she was writing her Memoir of Bernal, or for her own autobiography. The letters are not fully dated, and are not in order. Some attempts to date them have been made including some, in blue biro, by Hodgkin herself. Tentative dates run 1934-1939. The material is mainly concerned with research and publications and includes some detailed results, diagrams,…
