Huskins and Schrader. Canadian geneticist Charles Leonard Huskins (1897-1953) and German-US geneticist Franz Schrader (1891-1962) discussing the spindle fibres that develop during cell mitosis (cell division). Huskins studied mutations in agricultural crops such as oats and wheat, as well as the genetics of grasshoppers and mice. Schrader studied the cellular basis of genetics. Photographed in 1941, during the Ninth Symposium on Quantitative Biology (Genes and Chromosome Structure, 18 June to 2 July) at the Carnegie Institution Department of Genetics (later Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), New York, USA.
