Abstract:
Doctor David J. Webb MD, DSc, FRCP, FRSE, FMedSci, a clinical pharmacologist specialising in the management of cardiovascular disease, is the recipient of The Fourth Tomoh Masaki Award, a bi-annual prize presented on the occasion of the International Conferences on Endothelin to scientists for outstanding contributions and achievements in the field of endothelin research. The Fourth Tomoh Masaki Award was presented to Doctor Webb at the Fifteenth International Conference on Endothelin which was held at Duo Hotel, Prague, Czech Republic, in October 2017. The award was granted to Dr. Webb during the Award Ceremony in Troja Chateau "In Recognition of his Outstanding Contributions to Science and Endothelin Research in Particular". This article summarises the career and the scientific achievements of David J. Webb viewed by his former student Dr. Neeraj Dhaun, known to everybody as 'Bean'.

Thomson's e/m Experiment
A particle with charge q, speed v, and mass m enters an area from the top, where the magnetic and electric fields are perpendicular both to the particle's motion and to one another. The magnetic...
The Maximum Power Transfer Theorem
The load connected draws the current, and the circuit delivers the power to the load. The alternating current flowing through the load is determined using the rectangular form of voltages, currents, network impedance, and load impedance. The average power delivered to the load is obtained from the product of the square of current and load resistance.
