    CONTACT: Brandi Horton (202) 248-5447 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Population Council, Sheldon Segal to Be Celebrated by Prix Galien USA Pro Bono Humanum Award recognizes exemplary partnership benefiting reproductive health of more than 8 million women NEW YORK (July 17, 2008) — The Population Council and Sheldon Segal, distinguished scientist at the organization, will receive the Prix Galien USA 2008 Pro Bono Humanum Award (http://www.prix-galien- usa.com) for spearheading a preeminent coalition between academic, private, philanthropic and industrial organizations that made possible the development and distribution of implantable hormone delivery systems, such as Norplant®, that are used by more than 8 million women worldwide. The award also will recognize other coalition members the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, the late Judah Folkman of Harvard University, Dow-Corning and Wyeth. The award will be presented September 24, 2008, at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. The Pro Bono Humanum Award will honor the Population Council and Segal for five decades of a science-based global effort in support of reproductive health and family planning, especially in underdeveloped or underserved populations. This initiative was critical in establishing a coalition to create Norplant® (levonorgestrel implants) and related hormone delivery systems, which came as the result of basic biomedical discovery and translational research and was put into practice thanks to the waiving of proprietary patent rights for the Population Council. “The significance of Norplant® is more than convenient birth control,” said Gerald Weissmann, M.D., Prix Galien USA committee chair, New York University professor emeritus and editor-in-chief of The FASEB Journal.
