Yau Pedro Vieira Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory University of Maryland, College Park Baylor College of Medicine University of Waterloo Too often we fail to recognize and pay tribute to the creative spirit. It is that spirit that creates our jobs… There has to be this pioneer, the individual who has the courage, the ambition to overcome the obstacles that always develop when one tries to do something worthwhile, especially when it is new and different. (Alfred P. Sloan Jr., 1941) The Alfred P. Sloan Foundation is a philanthropic, not-for-profit grantmaking institution that supports original research and education in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and economics. www.sloan.org.
