N1 - Funding Information:
The trip also invited comparisons between American and British academic rheumatology even though there is no one typical UK unit any more than there is a typical American unit. British investigators seem less preoccupied with maintaining grant support to sustain clinical and laboratory research. Grants in many American units support everything from equipment to personnel; it is a highly desirable unit which has enough resources to fund extensive research programs without drawing on grants or philanthropy. Clinical research, generally not funded by the National Institutes of Health and foundations, is done in the course of patient care with minimal support from the institutions. Many American academic units have responsibility for far fewer patients than the units in the UK because academic rheumatologists are often in competition for patients with fee-for-service physicians. In contrast the National Health Service permits greater movement between generalists and consultants and supports significant amounts of clinical research.

N2 - [The Anglo-American Fellowship was an experience of a lifetime. It is difficult to summarize its meaning for the group as each one derived different pleasures and insights from that month. We're quite sure, however, that we took more than we gave. A year later, as the details fade, the impressions of that visit and the friends that we made continue to make a mark on our lives. BJR's Editor asked for a report ‘perhaps in a light-hearted vein’ of our experiences as Anglo-Fellows We took the charge literally. In that spirit, may we offer this, with due respect and good cheer.].
