Seven leading American bac teriologists led by Dr. Malcolm A. Soule of the University of Michigan will serve tours at Culjon Island leper colony to study the disease. The 6,600 cases on Culjon are expected to yield data building on Porto Rican work by Senle and Earl B. McKinney of George Washington University, who isolated the leprosy bacillus.
