community. Like other universities, we are a community of teachers, scholars and learners committed to excellence and dedicated to the pursuit of truth in the Catholic intellectual tradition. At NDNU, we have a strong commitment to providing high-quality professional education that will equip our graduates to immediately take their place in society or prepare them for more advanced study. That education is built on a liberal arts foundation that helps broaden students’ worldview and develop critical thinking skills. But an equally strong commitment to the Catholic social justice tradition and the Hallmarks of the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur means that we are acutely aware of the needs of the larger society that surrounds our campus. Hence, NDNU also seeks to develop in its students a deep commitment to becoming valued, contributing members

    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.

  • American Made 2.0
    American Made 2.0 How Immigrant Entrepreneurs Continue to Contribute to the U.S. Economy by Stuart Anderson NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR AMERICAN POLICY NATIONAL VENTURE CAPITAL ASSOCIATION About the Study This study commissioned by the National Venture Capital Association was prepared by Stuart Anderson, Executive Director, National Foundation for American Policy, a non-profit, non-partisan public policy research organization. 2 Contents Executive Summary 4 Section I: Immigrant-Founded Public and Privately-Held 10 Venture-Funded Companies Section II: Private Company Perspectives on U.S. 18 Immigration Policy Section III: U.S. Immigration Policy and Proposed Changes to 21 the Immigration System Conclusion 27 About the Author 28 Endnotes 29 3 Executive Summary Entrepreneurs are the heroes of a market-based economy, driving innovation and job creation. This NVCA study shows if entrepreneurs are indeed heroes, then immigrant entrepreneurs have made heroic contributions to America’s economy. The analysis concludes the contributions of immigrants to the United States would be even greater if Congress adopted the right policies on startups and high skill immigration. In 2006, the National Venture Capital Association released American Made: The Impact of Immigrant Entrepreneurs and Professionals on U.S. Competitiveness. It received significant attention as the first study to examine the role of immigrants in starting venture-funded companies. The study found immigrants started many U.S. venture-backed companies that became publicly traded and that these companies had achieved a significant market value, representing a benefit to the American economy, employees and investors. The new study used the Thomson Reuters database and performed extensive research to determine the nativity of the founders of U.S.

  • Woody Powell
    Note to readers: Please do not be alarmed by the length. There is a 48 page Appendix. You may want to print only the paper itself, pp. 1- 66. We would, however, welcome reactions to the Appendix and thoughts on how and whether to present the case materials. Chance, Necessité, et Naïveté: Ingredients to create a new organizational form* Walter W. Powell Kurt Sandholtz Stanford University January, 2010 *The title comes from remarks by Genentech co-founder Herbert Boyer (2001: 95-96): “I think if we had known about all the problems we were going to encounter, we would have thought twice about starting. I once gave a little talk to a group at a Stanford Business School luncheon, and I took off on the title of a book on evolution by Jacques Monod…Chance et Necessité. The title of my talk was ‘Chance, Necessité, et Naïveté.’ Naïveté was the extra added ingredient in biotechnology.” We thank Tricia Soto, librarian at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences, and Tanya Chamberlain for assistance in finding archival materials. Martin Kenney was most generous in providing us with the source documents he used in writing his 1986 book, one of the very first studies of the development of the biotechnology industry. Our thanks to the Center for Advanced Study for hosting Professor Powell while the chapter was prepared. We are grateful to Pablo Boczkowski, Ron Burt, John Padgett, members of the Networks and Organizations Workshop at Stanford, and the Organizations and Markets workshop at the University of Chicago for comments on our initial draft.

  • Alexza Pharmaceuticals 2006 Annual Report
    vs. Alexza Pharmaceuticals 2006 Annual Report vs. fast delivery With many medical conditions, speed of treatment is critical. Episodes of these “acute and intermittent” conditions—such as migraine headaches, panic attacks, breakthrough pain, agitation, and more— can quickly become debilitating. Alexza’s Staccato® system provides needed medication as fast as an injection. With just one breath, patients receive a dose of pure aerosolized drug—deep into their lungs—where it is quickly absorbed into the blood stream to begin providing therapeutic effect. vs. easy to use Using a Staccato device is as simple and intuitive as breathing. Doses are pre-set and there are no controls to deal with. About the size of a cell phone, the device fits easily in a pocket or purse. Patients don’t need to learn how to use the Staccato device—it is intuitive—nor do they have to rely on a caregiver to administer their medication. When the need arises, even unexpectedly, one breath is all it takes. 2 vs. more consistent Other inhalation drug delivery methods add fillers and excipients to the therapeutic compound. The proprietary Staccato system uses pure drug layered as a thin film on a substrate. The substrate heats rapidly when triggered by a patient inhalation. The drug instantly vaporizes and condenses into aerosol particles ranging from 1 to 5 microns in diameter—the optimal size to reach the highly vascular tissue of the deep lung for absorption into the blood stream. And the system produces a consistently high emitted dose regardless of the patient’s breathing pattern. 4 vs.

Kornberg Family Photo in 1959, Stockholm Roger Ken Sylvy Arthur Tom Sylvy discovered the enzyme that makes huge polyphosphate chains.
