Francis Fellowship sponsored by the Francis Family Foundation is to exert a favorable and lasting influence on the field of pulmonary medicine by providing the means to support promising young physicians and scientists for a period of training in research. Since 1976, the Parker B. Francis Fellowship Program has provided over $59 million in support of career development for more than 800 M.D. and Ph.D. scientists embarking on careers in clinical, laboratory or translational science related to Pulmonary, Critical Care and Sleep Medicine. The PBF Fellowship provides important support at a key transition point in the careers of new scientists who will benefit patients with lung diseases through innovative research. The PBF Fellows receive three years of support to work with experienced mentors in many diverse areas of research related to lung biology, critical illness and control of breathing. Past PBF Fellows have become international leaders in all aspects of Pulmonary, Critical Care and Sleep Medicine. Scientific discoveries by PBF Fellows have improved the lives of children and adults with a wide variety of lung diseases. rev. 7.13 - 1 - www.francisfellowships.org PBF FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM OFFICE SCIENTIFIC DIRECTOR ADMINISTRATOR THOMAS R.

    Annual Report Fy 2018 Human Frontier Science Program Organization

    APRIL 2017 APRIL 2018 — MARCH 2019 ANNUAL REPORT FY 2018 HUMAN FRONTIER SCIENCE PROGRAM ORGANIZATION The Human Frontier Science Program Organization (HFSPO) is unique, supporting international collaboration to undertake innovative, risky, basic research at the frontier of the life sciences. Special emphasis is given to the support and training of independent young investigators, beginning at the postdoctoral level. The Program is implemented by an international organisation, supported financially by Australia, Canada, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, the Republic of Korea, New Zealand, Norway, Singapore, Switzerland, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Nothern Ireland, the United States of America, and the European Commission. Since 1990, over 7000 researchers from more than 70 countries have been supported. Of these, 28 HFSP awardees have gone on to receive the Nobel Prize. 2 The following documents are available on the HFSP website www.hfsp.org: Joint Communiqués (Tokyo 1992, Washington 1997, Berlin 2002, Bern 2004, Ottawa 2007, Canberra 2010, Brussels 2013, London 2016): https://www.hfsp.org/about/governance/membership Statutes of the International Human Frontier Science Program Organization: https://www.hfsp.org/about/governance/hfspo-statutes Guidelines for the participation of new members in HFSPO: https://www.hfsp.org/about/governance/membership General reviews of the HFSP (1996, 2001, 2006-2007, 2010, 2018): https://www.hfsp.org/about/strategy/reviews Updated and previous lists of awards, including titles and abstracts:

    41St Annual Presentation Ceremony

    41st Annual thursday / march 29, 2012 Presentation Ceremony Lewis S. Rosenstiel award for distinguished work in basic medical science brandeis university In 1971, the Lewis S. Rosenstiel Award for Distinguished Work in Basic Medical Science was established as an expression of the conviction that educational institutions have an important role to play in the encouragement and development of basic science as it applies to medicine. Medals are presented annually at Brandeis University on the basis of recommendations from a panel of outstanding scientists selected by the Rosenstiel Basic Medical Sciences Research Center. Awards are given to scientists for recent discoveries of particular originality and importance to basic medical science research. A $30,000 prize accompanies the award. Since its inception, Brandeis University has placed great emphasis on basic science and its relationship to medicine. With the establishment of the Rosenstiel Basic Medical Sciences Research Center, made possible by the generos- ity of Lewis S. Rosenstiel in 1968, research in basic medical science at Brandeis has been expanded significantly. These awards provide a way to extend the center’s support beyond the campus community. The winner of the 2012 Lewis S. Rosenstiel Award for Distinguished Work in Basic Medical Science is Nahum Sonenberg, professor in the Depart- ment of Biochemistry at McGill University, Montreal. He was chosen for his discoveries of the mecha- nisms by which translational control regulates gene expression and plays roles in cancer, development, memory, innate immunity and virus infections. These discoveries, which dramatically changed thinking about translational control under physi- ological conditions and in disease, pave the way for development of novel drugs to cure human disease.

    Profile of Michael Grunstein

    PROFILE Profile of Michael Grunstein n 2001, half a decade after researchers announced the arrival of Dolly, the Ifirst mammal cloned from an adult somatic stem cell, scientists in the private sector decided to clone a pet cat. A couple of years later the enterprise went commercial, and eager pet owners lined up for the service. However, disappointment inevitably ensued: although the clones were genetically identical to the original pets, cloned cats often looked and acted no- thing like their predecessors. Michael Grunstein, were he so inclined, might have said, “I told you so.” Grunstein, a distinguished professor of biological chemistry at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), has devoted a lifetime of research to exploring how identical genes can be expressed differ- ently to create unique individuals. Elec- ted to the National Academy of Sciences Michael Grunstein (center) shared the 2011 Lewis S.
