notes: label: Description
content: The Micro-Lite was an inexpensive and convenient microscope lamp made by Bausch & Lomb and introduced in 1949. This example was used at the Worcester Foundation for Experimental Biology, a facility in Shrewesbury, Ma., in which the biologist, Gregory Pincus, conducted research leading to the first oral contraceptive. Anne P. Merrill, who worked on that project, donated it to the Smithsonian.
