 He was born in Salford, and spent the greater part of his scientific career at the Department of Biochemistry of the University of Oxford.
 He worked primarily on liver alcohol dehydrogenases, and is well known in enzymology as the discoverer of the Dalziel coefficient.
 Dalziel was a Professorial Fellow of Wolfson College, and in 1975 was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society
Karl Wilhelm Meissner (December 15, 1891 in Reutlingen, Württemberg – April 13, 1959 on a cruise ship sailing to Europe) was a German-American physicist specializing in hyperfine spectroscopy.

Edgard Victor Achille Charles Varèse (] ; also spelled Edgar Varèse; December 22, 1883 – November 6, 1965) was a French-born composer who spent the greater part of his career in the United States.
Marcelo Bonevardi (1929–1994) was a Latin American avant-garde artist known for his mixed media pieces.
 A native of Argentina, Bonevardi spent the greater part of his career in New York City, where he absorbed avant-garde practices and influences such as abstraction and primitivism, using them to invent a pictorial and symbolic language with which to express his deep spirituality and affinity for myth and ritual.
 Bonevardi is best known for his shaped canvases, often employing mixed media, which combine elements of painting and sculpture, reflecting his early training and lifelong interest in architecture.
 During his lifetime, Bonevardi received many honors, including the International Prize at the X Bienal de São Paulo, first prize in the “Ten Argentine Artists at the United Nations” permanent installation, and the Platinum Prize from the Konex Foundation.
Franz Ignaz Beck (Mannheim, February 20, 1734 – Bordeaux, December 31, 1809) was a German violinist, composer, conductor and music teacher who spent the greater part of his life in France, where he became director of the Bordeaux Grand Théâtre.
 Possibly the most talented pupil of Johann Stamitz, Beck is an important representative of the second generation of the so-called Mannheim school.
 His fame rests on his 24 symphonies that are among the most original and striking of the pre-Classical period.
 He was one of the first composers to introduce the regular use of wind instruments in slow movements and put an increasing emphasis on thematic development.
 His taut, dramatic style is also remarkable for its employment of bold harmonic progressions, flexible rhythms and highly independent part writing.

 He was one of the engineers responsible for the successful development of live outside broadcasting, satellite transmission, 625 line television and colour television as well as the birth of the Eurovision Network and the Open University.
Déserts (1950–1954) is a piece by Edgard Varèse for 14 winds (brass and woodwinds), 5 percussion players, 1 piano, and electronic tape.
 Percussion instruments are exploited for their resonant potential, rather than used solely as accompaniment.
 According to Varèse the title of the piece regards, "not only physical deserts of sand, sea, mountains, and snow, outer space, deserted city streets... but also distant inner space... where man is alone in a world of mystery and essential solitude."
