摘　　要：多萝西·霍奇金是使用X射线晶体学分析生物大分子结构的先驱之一,由于她的左翼倾向以及结识在牛津就读的廖鸿英,而与中国结缘。有别于激进左派,驱使霍奇金持续关注中国的原因更多是中国在蛋白质研究领域的成就。1959—1993年她先后八次访问中国,其中“文化大革命”期间的访华起到重续中英科技往来的作用,1978年后的交往则更多致力于恢复我国参与国际科学事务。霍奇金利用个人权威以及英国在国际晶体学界的地位,为我国在“文革”后加入国际晶体学联合会做出贡献。Dorothy Hodgkin was one of the pioneers of the use of X-ray crystallography to analyze the structure of biological macromolecules.Because of her left-wing tendencies and acquaintance with Liao Hongying who studied at Oxford University,Hodgkin became associated with China.Unlike the radical left,Hodgkin's continued interest in China was driven more by China's achievements in the field of protein research.From 1959 to 1993,she had visited China eight times,among which the visit to China during the Cultural Revolution played a role in renewing scientific and technological exchanges between China and the UK,while the contacts after 1978 were more devoted to resuming China's participation in international scientific affairs.Hodgkin used her personal authority and Britain's position in the international crystallography community to contribute to China's membership in the International Union of Crystallography(IUCr) after the Cultural Revolution.
