  • Business Letter
    Churchill College Storey’s Way Cambridge CB3 0DS Applied and not-yet-applied Sir Leszek Borysiewicz, the Vice-Chancellor 7.30 p.m., Monday 21st October, 2013 Wolfson Lecture Theatre, Churchill College, Storey’s Way, Cambridge Synopsis: Much attention has been paid to the relationship between fundamental research and application, and how to manage that relationship for the sake of growth and progress. Lord Porter, President of the Royal Society in the late 1980s, was categorical about the link: "there are two kinds of research: applied, and not-yet-applied". In terms of modern institutions and processes, however, we see tendencies to separate basic from applied research; and research from innovation. Sir Leszek will explore these factors in the context of the University's mission to contribute to society. About the Speaker: Professor Sir Leszek Borysiewicz Professor Sir Leszek Borysiewicz is the 345th Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cambridge. He was Chief Executive of the Medical Research Council from 2007, and from 2001 to 2007 was at Imperial College London, where he served as Principal of the Faculty of Medicine. CSAR lectures are open to all, and free to all members and students; non-members are asked to make a nominal contribution of £3.00. Coffee and biscuits are available in the Wolfson Foyer from around 7pm. For further directions see www.chu.cam.ac.uk/about/visitors/directions.php Curriculum Vitae Born in Wales, to Polish parents who settled there after the Second World War, he attended Cardiff High School and went on to the Welsh National School of Medicine, later taking up clinical and research posts in London.

Clare Four times each year, at our quarterly ‘Obit’ services in St David George’s Chapel, we commemorate and give thanks for the Founder and Benefactors of the College of St George. As we do Photographs: so, we remember all those “who helped to create and establish St George’s House as a centre of learning and study”. We are reminded at each ‘Obit’ observation of the significant part that St George’s House has played in the history of the College. During 2016, as you will see from what follows in this Review, we were delighted to mark the 50th anniversary of the founding of the House by HRH The Duke of Edinburgh and Dean Robin Woods. During the past year, we have been especially mindful of the vision, imagination, and profound concern to help build a better world that were at the beginning, and have remained through the years, the inspiration of the architects of the St George’s House wide-ranging programme.

AndYEARBOOK how do people negotiate2016 contested spaces in cities as politicised as Jerusalem? Hanna Baumann [2012] has been fascinated by the subject of divided cities since she was young. Her PhD in Architecture will build on her undergraduate and Master’s research, which focused on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict as well as on work she has been doing in for the United Nations on minority cultural rights in conflict affected areas. Hanna showed an early interest in the intersection between culture and conflict. Growing up in what was then East Berlin, she was five when the Berlin Wall fell. “In some ways, it was a formative experience,” she says, “and was part of my interest in divided cities. Even after the Wall came down I could see the long-term effects on family and friends.” “I could feel the tension in the After graduating from Barnard, Hanna returned to the Middle streets of the old city, where East to work with Iraqi refugees in Jordan through the UNHCR.
