Arnold and Newlin: 1957 Arnold at work in Texas

A newspaper article announces Arnie's position as coordinator of the first muscular dystrophy research program in the U.S. And with two colleagues from the Carter Physiology Laboratory he presents a paper about progressive regional renal ischemia produced by parabiosis in mice. 


"Progressive Regional Renal Ischemia Produced by Parabiosis in the Mouse", synopsis of 1957 paper presented
to the American Physiology Society, by C. E. Hall, O. Hall and A. H. Nevis, Carter Physiology Laboratory

Nevertheless, Arnie does not complete the year in Texas; instead he accepts a research position at the University of California Los Angeles in early 1958 and moves the family there. Eddie has become ill and Arnie and Newlin decide UCLA will have better hospitals to treat him.
