The scientific contribution of Mike Bradbury to the study of the
blood-brain barrier is considerable and wide-ranging, starting with
his M.D. thesis in 1962 and still continuing today. The varied
spectrum of topics relating to the blood-brain barrier presented in
this volume and the many geographical locations from which both
speakers and participants gathered to attend the symposium are a
fitting testament both to Mike's wide-spread influence in the field
and to the esteem in which he is held. When we first had the idea
of afestschrift to mark Mike's retirement as Professor of
Physiology at King's College London and the beginning of a new vie
libre as scientist and yachtsman the plan was initially for a
gathering of all of the many colleagues, collaborators and students
who had worked with him over the years. However what we had not
taken into account was the closeness of the international community
of workers in the field, the widespread influence that Mike had
wielded and the speed with which word would spread. We should have
anticipated all three. The final outcome was an excellent symposium
with the majority of the world's key workers either contributing or
attending. We hope that this volume presents an adequate record of
the meeting.
