Biographical / Historical

The Henriques were Brazilian scientists who left Brazil when their political affiliations made it difficult to find scientific employment. Sebastian Henriques, who had worked with Pollock at the National Institute for Medical Research (NIMR), came to work with Pollock in the Edinburgh Department of Molecular Biology, and Olga in the Edinburgh Western General Hospital. The Henriques moved to Cuba in 1972.
