Anniversary fever? History and the culture of NHS celebration.
Mod Br Hist
January 2025
Centre for the History of Medicine, University of Warwick, Coventry, CV4 7AL, UK.
Delivered a day after Britain's National Health Service (NHS) reached its 75th year since its opening on the Appointed Day of 5 July 1948, the Pimlott Lecture for 2023 explored the culture of NHS anniversary-making. What can the marking of these anniversaries tell us about changing attitudes towards the service, and indeed, the British state? Here, examining evidence from the media, government archives, and Mass Observation, we argue that NHS anniversaries have long functioned as points of reflection but that their role as moments of national celebration and even communion has come to the fore only recently and culminated in the apparent 'anniversary fever' of 2018. We will explore the reasons behind the growing public fervour, what it can tell us, and the lessons offered by our work on this (still) best-loved of British institutions for historians working on highly politicized objects in 'fevered' times.

CSGA, Dijon, France.
Our goal in putting together this special issue was twofold: First, to honour the remarkable career of Professor Wendy Parr and her contribution to the understanding of wine tasting and wine tasters and second, to continue to raise awareness of the importance of the cognitive approach in the wine scientific literature. We present Professor Wendy Parr's insightful reflections on her distinguished career, including her early ventures into psychology and the experiences that shaped her contributions. These are complemented by a concise historical perspective on the evolution of wine sensory science, providing context for her work.

School of Medicine, Department of Neuropharmacology, Western Sydney University, Locked Bag 1797, Penrith, NSW, 2751, Australia.
This editorial celebrates the 80th birthday of Distinguished Professor Laszlo Zaborszky, co-founder of Brain Structure and Function, and reflects on his monumental contributions to neuroscience, particularly his pioneering work on the cholinergic basal forebrain. Professor Zaborszky's research has reshaped our understanding of this brain region's organization and function, uncovering its critical role in cognitive processes such as learning, memory, and attention. His findings have challenged longstanding assumptions, demonstrating that the cholinergic projections to the cortex are highly organized, with implications for neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's.

College of Science, Engineering & Technology, RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia.
This essay was originally prepared for a special commemorative volume to celebrate the International Zoological Congress (established 135 years ago) and the International Society of Zoological Sciences (ISZS, established 20 years ago). These two institutions underpin international cooperation and promote excellence in zoological research without which the science of zoology would be very much the poorer.
