Niels Bohr (1885–1962) was born in Copenhagen. He was awarded a fellowship by the Carlsberg foundation on completion of his PhD at the University of Copenhagen in 1911 and, like Rutherford before him, went to study with J.J. Thomson at the Cavendish Laboratory in Cambridge. On-going research there was focussed on the spectra of light from atoms, but explanations in terms of Thomson's 'plum pudding' model proved disappointing. The newly-arrived Bohr was outspoken and criticized aspects of Thomson's atomic model. This seems to have alienated the eminent man and 'J.J. politely indicated that it might be nice if he [Bohr] left Cambridge and went to work with Rutherford'.1
