LERU's 10Th Anniversary Conference Programme booklet LERU’s 10th Anniversary Conference European Research Universities: Guide and Engine for Europe 2050 Barcelona, 9-10 May 2012 Welcome Dear participant, The League of European Research Universities (LERU) and the Universitat de Barce- lona welcome you to LERU’s 10th Anniversary Conference. The conference, entitled “European Research Universities – Guide and Engine for Europe 2050”, provides a unique forum for the leaders of some of Europe’s leading research universities to exchange views with their counterparts from outside Europe and with high level representatives from the government and business sectors. We will focus on the present and future role of European research universities, rela- ting it, in particular, to the EU research and innovation policy of the coming years. A comparison will be made with the situation in other parts of the world, including the US, Australia, and China, looking at topics such as frontier research and innovation, research assessment, management, funding, training and careers, mobility and the nexus between teaching/learning and research. The leaders of LERU universities will share their views regarding the future of research universities in Europe and formulate proposals for how European research universi- ties should evolve in order to remain a guide and engine for Europe 2050. Comments on those proposals will be voiced by representatives from the EU institutions, the business world, and LERU’s network counterparts such as the AAU, Go8 and C9. This two day event is designed to think forward and discuss the research university of the future. We will be featuring discussions with university leaders, entrepreneurs and policymakers and there is plenty of time in the programme to network. Finally, we would like to thank the Universitat de Barcelona for hosting and suppor- ting this conference. For the next decade, LERU intends to keep pushing the frontiers of innovative re- search! Prof. Kurt Deketelaere Secretary-General LERU The League of European Research Universities The League of European Research Universities (LERU) is an association of twenty- one leading research-intensive universities that share the values of high-quality teaching within an environment of internationally competitive research. Founded in 2002, LERU advocates education through an awareness of the frontiers of human un- derstanding; the creation of new knowledge through basic research, which is the ul- timate source of innovation in society; and the promotion of research across a broad front in partnership with industry and society at large. The purpose of the League is to advocate these values, to influence policy in Europe and to develop best practice through mutual exchange of experience. LERU regularly publishes a variety of papers and reports which make high-level policy statements, provide in-depth analyses and make concrete recommendations for policymakers, universities, researchers and other stakeholders. The LERU universities are: Universiteit van Amsterdam / Universitat de Barcelona / University of Cambridge / Uni- versity of Edinburgh / Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg / Université de Genève / Uni- versität Heidelberg / Helsingin yliopisto (University of Helsinki) / Universiteit Leiden / KU Leuven / Imperial College London / University College London / Lunds univer- sitet / Università degli Studi di Milano / Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München / University of Oxford / Université Pierre et Marie Curie / Université Paris-Sud 11 / Université de Strasbourg / Universiteit Utrecht / Universität Zürich Programme LERU’s 10th Anniversary Conference Wednesday 9 May 2012 12.00-13.15: Reflections from an EU perspective Paranimf 17.00: Arrival and registration of participants Chair: Prof. Kurt Deketelaere, Secretary-General of LERU Hall Mr. Robert-Jan Smits, Director-General, DG Research & Innovation, European Commission 18.00: Opening session Prof. Helga Nowotny, President, European Research Council Gardens Mr. Brian Ager, Secretary-General, European Roundtable of Industrialists Prof. Dídac Ramírez i Sarrió, Rector of the Universitat de Barcelona Mrs. Lesley Wilson, Secretary-General, European University Association Prof. Bernd Huber, Chairman of LERU and President of LMU München 13.15-14.30: Lunch Mr. Robert-Jan Smits, Director-General, DG Research & Innovation, European Commission Paranimf Corridor Prof. Anne Glover, Chief Scientific Adviser to President Barroso, European Commission 14.30-15.15: Plenary Address “The research university of the future”, Prof. Douwe Breimer, former Rector Magnificus of the Universiteit Leiden Prof. Sir Leszek Borysiewicz, Vice-Chancellor, University of Cambridge 19.00: Welcome reception, buffet and music Paranimf Gardens 15.15-16.15: Comments from an EU perspective Paranimf Thursday 10 May 2012 Chair: Prof. Alain Beretz, President of the Université de Strasbourg, Member of the LERU Board of Directors 08.00-09.00: Registration Mr. Robert-Jan Smits Rectorate Hall Prof. Helga Nowotny 09.00-10.00: Welcome and introductory remarks Mr. Brian Ager Paranimf Mrs. Lesley Wilson Prof. Dídac Ramírez i Sarrió, Rector of the Universitat de Barcelona 16.15-16.45: Coffee break Prof. Bernd Huber, Chairman of LERU and President of LMU München Paranimf Corridor Prof. Amparo Camarero Olivas, Spain’s General Secretary for Universities Prof. Andreu Mas-Colell, Catalan Minister for Economy and Knowledge 16.45-17.30: Global Panel Debate Prof. Carmen Vela, Spanish State Secretary for Research, Development and Innovation Paranimf Chair: Prof. Malcolm Grant 10.00-11.30: Research universities in 2012 – A global perspective Paranimf Prof. Bernd Huber Chair: Prof. Jordi Alberch, Vice-Rector Research, Universitat de Barcelonaw Dr. John C.

Introduction If universities are to retain their central relevance to society, to the they must adapt their programs to the needs of the 21st century. Students must be educated to be effective citizens Graduate and leaders in a diverse and highly globalized world. University administrators and faculty must take leadership University in providing sustainable solutions to planet-threatening problems such as climate change, the energy supply, and human health, food and water shortages. The engine of Faculty true innovation, basic research with long-term R&D objectives, is arguably the most powerful tool for solving these problems. OIST Graduate University is at the forefront of creating change in how research and education are practiced. We hire world-leading faculty and we give them substantial support and considerable freedom to pursue basic research. By avoiding traditional administrative and physical bound- aries, and by creating easy access for people to each other and to research equipment, we have established a very open and intimate environment which naturally pro- motes cross-disciplinary education and research. We are training a new breed of students and young researchers to become future leaders in the global world of academia and/or industry—young talent that is receiving strong disciplinary training while additionally being exposed to a truly multidisciplinary experience that challenges them to bridge the boundaries between the physical and life sciences.

  • Forty Years on a History of the Heterocyclic Group of the Royal Society of Chemistry
    RSC Heterocyclic Group ARKIVOC 2007 (xi) 1-22 The First Forty Years of the Heterocyclic Group of the Royal Society of Chemistry Professor Emeritus Gurnos Jones, School of Physical and Geographical Sciences, Lennard-Jones Laboratories, Keele University, Staffordshire, ST5 5BB, U.K. In 1967 the idea of specialist subject groups was comparatively new. To test the waters, Professor A.R. Katritzky and Dr. G. Jones held a meeting at Keele University at which 125 chemists voted to propose to the Chemical Society Council the formation of a Subject group for those interested in the study of heterocyclic compounds, hereafter called the Heterocyclic Group. The proposal was accepted by the Council on the 5th April, 1967, a committee was formed, with Professor Alan Katritzky as Chairman and Dr. Gurnos Jones as Secretary/Treasurer, and a first half-day meeting held before the main Autumn meeting of the Chemical Society in Durham on 19th September. Much more detail is given in the article on the history of the group which is the first article in this issue of Arkivoc, but the Group has been an enormous success with an average of four meetings (one day and longer) each year. A pattern soon developed with a meeting in London in January, and a meeting at an industrial site in the summer. Industry, particularly the pharmaceutical industry has from the first been very supportive. In early years the group used one day during the Autumn Meeting of the Chemical Society (later the Royal Society of Chemistry), but in later years this has been replaced by a meeting with postgraduate student presentations, of very high quality.The first longer meeting was held in Grasmere in the Lake District, organised by Dr.

    16 Matti Aarnio and Kalle Romanov University of Helsinki, Finland Use of Scientific Information Resources among Medical and Dental Students Aims: The aim of the study was to survey how original resources of scientific information are utilized by medical and dental students in the Medical Faculty of the University of Helsinki. The students of the faculty were asked to assess their frequency of use of electronic information resources and software. Additionally they were inquired the accessibility of resources. The results of the survey are being used to develop the support for and training of the use of information and communication technology in research-based teaching and studying in the faculty. Data: The data were collected in November 2004 by using electronic self assessment questionnaire via electronic form, which contained both multiple choice and open ended questions. The survey was addressed to 924 students, of which 418 (45.2%) responded to it during the survey period of two weeks. Two reminder messages were used to promote the response. Findings: 23.6% of the students searched information from Medline for their studies twice a month or more frequently. 30.4% searched information from Medline for their own scientific work twice a month or more. 41.6% of the students never used original electronic medical articles in their studies. 12.0% of the students utilized nor Medline or original articles. The results show that the students use original scientific materials only to a moderate extent.
