Your informative News Feature "Eyes on the prize" (Nature 413, 560–564; 2001) contains a photo of the Russian physiologist Ivan Pavlov, winner of the 1904 Nobel prize, with male colleagues and one of the dogs he used to discover the existence of the conditioned reflex.Some years ago, I came across the original photograph, which also shows two women from Pavlov's team.
