Antiarrhythmic drug research.
This article was written as part of the 75th anniversary celebration of the British Pharmacological Society (BPS). It discusses antiarrhythmic drug research conducted by members of BPS, and as published in the British Journal of Pharmacology (BJP). BPS members, past and present, as well as antiarrhythmic manuscripts published in the BJP have been identified. From these data, the article attempts to semiquantitatively summarize results published in the journal, but only quotes selected manuscripts and individuals. Apologies are offered for omissions and errors, but as in any history, a writer's biases and opinions are unavoidable.
