}}Cora Jipson Beckwith (24 March 1875 - 9 January 1955) was an American zoologist who spent her professional career at Vasser College.[1]

Life

She was born in Grand Rapids, Michigan in 1875 and died in Washington in 1955. She was noted for her teaching and for her contribution to college life in terms of her membership of committees.[2]

Cora Beckwith joined Vasser College as an assistant in 1900 after her graduation from Michigan State University in that same year. She continued her studies while working at Vasser College, gaining an M.A. in biology from Columbia University in 1908 and her PhD, also from Columbia University in 1914.

Her research was in cytology, mainly associated with bowfin (Amia calva) and the lateral cell lines of these bony fish. She also worked on the cytology of the germ cells of certain hydroids, and had papers published on these subjects in the Biological Bulletin.[3][4]

Cora Beckwith joined Vasser College as an assistant, became a professor during her career and was head of the zoology department by the time she retired in 1940. She was a life member of the Marine Biological Laboratory at Woods Hole, where she had spent many summers as a young woman. She taught histology, embryology and cytology to Vasser students.

Selected works

  • 1907 The Early Development of the Lateral Line System of Amia Calva.[5]
  • 1909 Preliminary Report on the Early History of the Egg and Embryon of Certain Hydroids.[6]
  • 1914 The genesis of the plasma-structure in the egg of Hydractinia echinata[7]
  • 1920 Note on a peculiar pancreatic bladder in the cat[8]
  • 1927 The effect of the extirpation of the lens rudiment on the development of the eye in Amblystoma punctatum, with special reference to the choroid fissure[9]
