Unknown to Starling and Bayliss, their lectures had been infiltrated by two Swedish activists. Louise "Lizzy" Lind-af-Hageby, a 24-year-old Swedish countess, and Leisa K. Schartau had visited the Pasteur Institute in Paris in 1900 and were appalled by the use of animals there.[20] On their return to Sweden, they made contact with the Swedish Animal Protection League, and in December 1900 founded the Anti-Vivisection Society of Sweden. In 1902, they enrolled as students at the London School of Medicine for Women—a vivisection-free college that had visiting arrangements with other London colleges—partly to gain medical training, and partly as undercover anti-vivisectionists.[21]
