By Geoffrey Dean
...
Geoffrey Dean was born in England but spent the first half of his professional career in South Africa where he practised as a consultant physician. He came to Ireland in 1968 when he was appointed to the newly established Medico-Social Research Board because of his long-standing interest in and research contributions to epidemiology while living in South Africa.
His autobiography combines the story of his personal life with an account of his internationally recognized work in medical epidemiology. The book will be remembered most for his contributions to the epidemiology of porphyria, multiple sclerosis, motor neurone disease, histoplasmosis and lung cancer. Chapters on these subjects make fascinating reading and confirm his gift of combining slow painstaking collection of data from many countries with the occasional flash of serendipity.
Dean spent 18 years as Director of the MSRB whose first Chairman was Professor Paddy Lynch. -
