    University of California Berkeley Regional Oral History Office University of California The Bancroft Library Berkeley, California Program in the History of the Biosciences and Biotechnology Arthur Kornberg, M.D. BIOCHEMISTRY AT STANFORD, BIOTECHNOLOGY AT DNAX With an Introduction by Joshua Lederberg Interviews Conducted by Sally Smith Hughes, Ph.D. in 1997 Copyright 1998 by The Regents of the University of California Since 1954 the Regional Oral History Office has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the Nation. Oral history is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well- informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ************************************ All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Arthur Kornberg, M.D., dated June 18, 1997. The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes. All literary rights in the manuscript, including the right to publish, are reserved to The Bancroft Library of the University of California, Berkeley.

  • The Future of Global Health Journalism
    TAKING THE TEMPERATURE: The Future of Global Health Journalism February 2011 A REPORT FOR The Kaiser Family Foundation By Nellie Bristol and John Donnelly Acknowledgements: Several Kaiser Family Foundation staff assisted with this project. Jill Braden Balderas and Penny Duckham offered editorial guidance. Jennifer Evans and Jaclyn Schiff provided copy editing and research. This report was commissioned by the Kaiser Family Foundation. The views in this report are those of the authors and not necessarily those of the Foundation. This report is part of Kaiser’s Global Health Policy Project, which is supported in part by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.. TABLE OF CONTENTS TABLE OF CONTENTS 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 2 INTRODUctION 4 THE FUTURE OF GLOBAL HEALTH JOURNALISM 20 QUESTIONS FOR THE FUTURE 22 APPENDIX 1: Graphics 25 APPENDIX 2: Methodology and Interviewee List EXECUTIVE SUMMARY EXEC or more than five years, much of the mainstream media in the United States has been foundering economically. FJournalism’s problems were further exacerbated by the global economic downturn in 2008, which resulted in even more cuts to newsroom resources. Staff downsizing and budget reductions have forced reporters and editors to do more with less and impacted both the depth and breadth of reporting at many outlets. This report set out to understand how coverage of U global health issues might have fallen victim to the overall problems facing journalism and whether this beat faced unique T challenges of its own. I V E S Interviews with 51 stakeholders in global health journalism—reporters, editors and producers in either mainstream media or at specialized outlets like trade and policy publications; freelance writers and broadcasters; writers and editors of global health advocacy outlets as well as peer-reviewed journals; and funders of journalism—provided a window into was happening in global health journalism in the U.S.

    The Nature of Defense: Coevolutionary Studies, Ecological Interaction, and the Evolution of 'Natural Insecticides,' 1959-1983 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Rachel Natalie Mason Dentinger IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Mark Borrello December 2009 © Rachel Natalie Mason Dentinger 2009 Acknowledgements My first thanks must go to my advisor, Mark Borrello. Mark was hired during my first year of graduate school, and it has been my pleasure and privilege to be his first graduate student. He long granted me a measure of credit and respect that has helped me to develop confidence in myself as a scholar, while, at the same time, providing incisive criticism and invaluable suggestions that improved the quality of my work and helped me to greatly expand its scope. My committee members, Sally Gregory Kohlstedt, Susan Jones, Ken Waters, and George Weiblen all provided valuable insights into my dissertation, which will help me to further develop my own work in the future. Susan has given me useful advice on teaching and grant applications at pivotal points in my graduate career. Sally served as my advisor when I first entered graduate school and has continued as my mentor, reading nearly as much of my work as my own advisor. She never fails to be responsive, thoughtful, and generous with her attention and assistance. My fellow graduate students at Minnesota, both past and present, have been a huge source of encouragement, academic support, and fun. Even after I moved away from Minneapolis, I continued to feel a part of this lively and cohesive group of colleagues.

  • Robert A. Alberty 1921–2014
    Robert A. Alberty 1921–2014 A Biographical Memoir by Gordon G. Hammes and Carl Frieden ©2014 National Academy of Sciences. Any opinions expressed in this memoir are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Academy of Sciences. ROBERT ARNOLD ALBERTY June 21, 1921–January 18, 2014 Elected to the NAS, 1965 Robert A. Alberty maintained an enthusiasm for science throughout his entire life. His presence at meetings was easily detectable, as he was blessed with an unmistak- able and booming voice that conveyed his latest scien- tific interests and above all his continual commitment to the science enterprise. Alberty directed this passion to thermodynamics and kinetics in particular, especially as applied to biological systems, and his research in these areas established a rich legacy for modern biophysical chemistry. He was a “triple-threat” scientist, excelling not only in research but also in teaching and university administration. Alberty (Bob to all who knew him) was born in Winfield, By Gordon G. Hammes Kansas, but when he was five years old his family moved and Carl Frieden to Lincoln, Nebraska. Even as a boy, he displayed a strong interest in science, exemplified by a basement chemistry laboratory and photographic dark room that he built in the family’s home. When he entered the University of Nebraska in 1939, Alberty had been planning a career as a chemical engineer, but then he discovered that this would require extensive coursework in drafting and surveying. Because he had already learned surveying from his grandfather, he saw no need to take college courses in the subject.
