[The history of the society]

Background Past Presidents and Officers Annual Scientific Meetings

Background

The formation of a society was advocated in 1961 as a consequence of two letters published in the British Medical Journal of August 12th and November 4th. Mary Egerton, Moira Murray, Freda Osmond-Clarke and Erica Wachtel, having attended the first International Congress on Cytology sponsored by the International Academy of Gynaecological Cytology in Vienna in September of that year, considered that Great Britain was lagging far behind America and Europe in the development of this speciality, and that the creation of a society would help to establish and promote the practice of cytology throughout the country. Consequently, a meeting was held at the Royal Society of Medicine on December 1st 1961 to discuss the formation of a society. A working party, under the Chairmanship of C.W. Taylor (Birmingham) was formed to look into the formulation of Statutes with the aim of promoting the growth and development of clinical cytology in the United Kingdom, and the organisation of scientific meetings. Membership would be open to all registered medical practitioners interested in cytology and the title of the society would be "The British Society for Clinical Cytology".
