MISS M.R.N. Holmer, M.A., Professor of Physiology, and Biology at the Lady Hardinge Medical College, Delhi, has been elected an added member of the Board of Studies in Botany, Zoology and Physiology, of the Punjab University. This is, we believe, the first time that a lady has been elected a member of the Punjab University, and if we mistake not, a member of any University in India. Miss Holmer possesses high academic qualifications and has had a long and varied experience in the teaching line in England before coming out to India. She was a recognised teacher in the University of London for post-graduate work, and did a certain amount of post-graduate work at the London School of Medicine.
