Three years later, in 1894, the Conservatorium was established. THE BUILDING The present building consists of twenty teaching rooms, a finе lecture hall, concert hall (known as Melba Hall), Director's room, administrative offices, library, social room and staff and students' rooms. AIM OF THE CONSERVATORIUM The chief aim of the Conservatorium is co provide a general course of musical education, while provision is also made for specialization in any particular subject. In the absence, on leave, of Mr. Henri Touzeau, Mr. Keith Humble has directed the orchestra. A programme was provided for the National Council of Women at the Melbourne Town Hall, and by the end of the year three concerts will have been given in Melba Hall. At two of these concerts a number of students will have had an opportunity to appear as soloists with the orchestra. -

Nancy Millis
Celebrating 50 years of the Australian Society for Microbiology Nancy Millis Born in Melbourne in 1922, Nancy Fannie Millis studied agriculture at the University of Melbourne, graduating with a Master of Agricultural Science in 1946. She spent a year studying agricultural methods in Papua New Guinea before travelling to the University of Bristol on a Boots Research Scholarship. It was here that Millis was introduced to fermentation, gaining her PhD in 1951. Upon her return to Australia, Millis was appointed to a lectureship in the Department of Microbiology at the University of Melbourne. A Fulbright travel grant allowed her to visit the United States and Japan in 1954, spending time at the Hopkins Marine Station at Stanford and the Institute of Applied Microbiology at the University of Tokyo. Millis was involved in teaching one of the first courses in biotechnology in Japan and later co-authored a textbook based on the course, which was one of the earliest of its kind. Millis pioneered the teaching of industrial microbiology at the University of Melbourne, instituting the applied microbiology course and concentrating on fermentation techniques and the physiology of microorganisms. She progressed to become the fourth woman appointed to a professorial position at the University when she was awarded a personal chair in 1982. Millis retired in 1987 and remains an Emeritus Professor in the Department of Microbiology. Upon its establishment in 1980, Millis became chair of the Commonwealth Government Recombinant DNA Monitoring Committee (later the Genetic Manipulation Advisory Committee). Her ground-breaking research into water quality and long association with the water industry helped to improve water treatment. -

Background-Information-Mackie-House.Pdf
August 2016 BACKGROUND INFORMATION Mackie House, 41 National Circuit (Block 16 Section 7, Forrest) At its meeting of 25 August 2016 the ACT Heritage Council decided that Mackie House was not eligible for provisional registration. The information contained in this report was considered by the ACT Heritage Council in assessing the nomination for Mackie House against the heritage significance criteria outlined in s10 of the Heritage Act 2004. HISTORY Doug and Jill Mackie moved to Canberra from Sydney in 1956. Doug Mackie was proprietor of the Kingston newsagency before moving into property development. In 1958, the couple bought a block of almost half an acre at 41 National Circuit for £970 (Reeves and Roberts 2013: 98). The Mackies commissioned the Sydney firm of McConnel, Smith and Johnson to design a four bedroom home. The supervising architect was Peter Keys, recently returned from London, who was Doug Mackie’s first cousin (their mothers were twins). The Mackies obtained a permit to build within two months of signing the lease and their house on 41 National Circuit (‘Mackie House’) was certified finished ten months later (Reeves and Roberts 2013: 98). The Sydney-based practice of McConnel, Smith & Johnson (MSJ) was established in 1955. The firm had its origins in a post-war office formed in 1949 by Kenneth McConnel, a talented designer whose sensitive designs had been recognised before World War II with the presentation of Sulman Award when he was a partner of Fowell, McConnel & Mansfield. One of McConnel's early and ongoing projects was the War Veterans’ Home, Dee Why, NSW (1949-73), which was built in six stages and planned as a village, informally sited in its bush landscape (Goad and Willis 2011: 436). -
Metabolic Tracing of NAD Precursors Using Strategically Labelled Isotopes of NMN
A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Metabolic tracing of NAD+ precursors using strategically labelled isotopes of NMN by Lynn-Jee Kim Supervisors Dr. Lindsay E. Wu (Primary) Prof. David A. Sinclair (Joint-Primary) Dr. Lake-Ee Quek (Co-supervisor) School of Medical Sciences Faculty of Medicine Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname/Family Name: Kim Given Name/s: Lynn-Jee Abbreviation for degree as give in PhD the University calendar: Faculty: Faculty of Medicine School: School of Medical Sciences + Thesis Title: Metabolic tracing of NAD precursors using strategically labelled isotopes of NMN Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is an important cofactor and substrate for hundreds of cellular processes involved in redox homeostasis, DNA damage repair and the stress response. NAD+ declines with biological ageing and in age-related diseases such as diabetes and strategies to restore intracellular NAD+ levels are emerging as a promising strategy to protect against metabolic dysfunction, treat age-related conditions and promote healthspan and longevity. One of the most effective ways to increase NAD+ is through pharmacological supplementation with NAD+ precursors such as nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) which can be orally delivered. Long term administration of NMN in mice mitigates age-related physiological decline and alleviates the pathophysiologies associated with a high fat diet- and age-induced diabetes. Despite such efforts, there are certain aspects of NMN metabolism that are poorly understood. In this thesis, the mechanisms involved in the utilisation and transport of orally administered NMN were investigated using strategically labelled isotopes of NMN and mass spectrometry. -
Elucidation of the Developmental and Physiological Roles of Nad+ Biosynthetic Pathways
The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology ELUCIDATION OF THE DEVELOPMENTAL AND PHYSIOLOGICAL ROLES OF NAD+ BIOSYNTHETIC PATHWAYS A Dissertation in Biochemistry, Microbiology and Molecular Biology by Melanie R. McReynolds © 2017 Melanie R. McReynolds Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2017 The dissertation of Melanie R. McReynolds was reviewed and approved* by the following: Wendy Hanna-Rose Associate Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee Craig E. Cameron Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Eberly Chair in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Teh-hui Kao Distinguished Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Chair of Plant Biology Graduate Program Lorraine Santy Associate Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Pamela A. Hankey-Giblin Professor of Immunology Andrew D. Patterson Associate Professor of Molecular Toxicology Special Signatory David Gilmour Professor of Molecular and Cell Biology Co-Director for Graduate Education in BMMB *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT NAD+ biosynthesis has proven to be an attractive and promising therapeutic target for influencing healthspan and obesity-related phenotypes as well as tumor growth. However, NAD+ is a key metabolite that impacts the entire metabolome. Therefore, it is necessary to elucidate exactly how manipulating NAD+ biosynthetic pathways can lead to therapeutic benefits. Also, it is imperative to characterize the unexpected adverse reactions to manipulating the biosynthetic pathways to fully utilize this target for drug discovery. The goal of our research is to understand how NAD+ homeostasis is maintained to support its core metabolic roles and its signaling and regulatory roles involving NAD+ consumers. -
