N. N. Meisel' was born in 1901. He graduated from the first 

 Leningrad Medical Institute in 1926, where he completed his 

 postgraduate studies in histology in 1929. In 1932 he completed 

 additional postgraduate work in microbiology and cytology at 

 the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences. In the same year he worked 

 as one of the organizers of the Far-Eastern branch of the 

 U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences, where from 1932 to 1934, he 

 was a member of the Presidium and Academic-Secretary. In 

 1934 he began work at the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences Insti- 

 tute of Microbiology, and in 1959 became Laboratory Chief of 

 the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences Institute of Radiation and 

 Physico-Chemical Biology. He undertook a teaching position at 

 the Moscow State University in 1946, and in 1947 received the 

 degree of Doctor of Biological Sciences at that institution. In 

 1960 he was elected to the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences as a
