Biographical History

Association of Cambridge Scientists was founded in late 1945 as a response to the growing controversy over the use of atomic energy. Membership in the organization was open to scientists in the Boston area and composed mainly of persons on the staff of Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The main purpose of the association was to inform the general public on scientific matters when such information is pertinent to matters of public policy. The association also wished to stimulate discussion among scientists on these public questions through cooperation with similar organization i the United States and overseas.
