Independent and non-party-political, we are working to provide public benefi t throughout Scotland and by means of a growing international programme. The RSE has a peer-elected, multidisciplinary Fellowship of more than 1500 men and women who are experts within their fi elds. The RSE was created in 1783 by Royal Charter for “the advancement of learning and useful knowledge”. We seek to provide public benefi t in today’s Scotland by: - Organising lectures, debates and conferences on topical issues of lasting importance, many of which are free and open to all. - Conducting independent inquiries on matters of national and international importance. - Providing educational activities for primary and secondary school students throughout Scotland. - Distributing over £2 million to top researchers and entrepreneurs working in Scotland. - Showcasing the best of Scotland’s research and development capabilities to the rest of the World. - Facilitating two-way international exchange to enhance Scotland’s interna- tional collaboration in research and enterprise. - Recognising educational effort and achievement by encouraging and re- warding it through the award of scholarships, prizes and medals - Providing both reactive and proactive submissions of expert advice on a range of topical issues to the Scottish Government (including its Agencies), Scottish Parliamentary Bodies/Committees; the UK Government (including its Agencies) and UK Parliamentary Bodies/Committees. The RSE’s premises are in the centre of Edinburgh and were extensively refur- bished in 1983 to provide suitable accommodation in which to hold lectures, conferences and other meetings. In 1994 the RSE purchased the adjacent 3 Directory 2016/17 building at 26 George Street which was refurbished during 1998 by the RSE Scotland Foundation and linked to the RSE’s premises to enable further expansion of our activities. A detailed account of the History of the Royal Society of Edinburgh was written by Professor Neil Campbell and Professor R M S Smellie (former General Secre- tary) for the Bicentenary Celebrations in 1983. This describes in detail its origins and background. Copies of this volume are available from the Journals Offi cer. In 2006, after almost six years of research by Dr Charles Waterston, General Secretary, 1986-91, aided by Mr Angus Shearer, the Society published a bi- ographical list of all former RSE Fellows from 1783 - 2002 (ISBN 0 902 198 84 X). This is available on the RSE website and copies have been sent to the main deposit libraries, as well as Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen and St Andrews University Libraries. 4 COUNCIL OF THE SOCIETY April 2016 - March 2017 President Professor Jocelyn BELL BURNELL Vice-Presidents Professor Iain GRAY Professor Neva HAITES Professor Marian SCOTT Professor Sir David WALLACE Professor John WALLACE General Secretary Professor Alan ALEXANDER Treasurer Mr Gerald WILSON Fellowship Secretary Professor John CONNELL Ordinary Members Mr John BAXTER Dr John BROWN Dr Barbara CRAWFORD Professor Margaret MACLEAN Dame Joan STRINGER Observer Dr Robert BLACK 5 Directory 2016/17 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE April 2016 - March 2017 General Secretary Professor Alan ALEXANDER Treasurer Mr Gerald WILSON Chairman, The RSE Scotland Foundation Professor Donald RITCHIE Trustee Dame Joan STRINGER Chief Executive Dr William DUNCAN Director of Business Development Mr Gordon ADAM Director of Finance Miss Kate ELLIS Director of Corporate Services Mr Graeme HERBERT 6 THE RSE SCOTLAND FO UNDATION In March 1996 the Society established a connected charitable trust, the RSE Scotland Foundation. The Foundation is recognised in Scotland as Scottish charity number SC 024636 and is registered for VAT. The Foundation plays a leading role in the continued development of the Society’s public outreach activities and manages the premises at 26 George Street, Edinburgh. The Pres- ident, General Secretary, Treasurer, Curator and a Vice-President of the Society are ex offi ciis Trustees of the Foundation. The Foundation also has a minimum of four nominated Trustees who are appointed by the Council of the Society. The Caledonian Research Foundation joined with the RSE Scotland Foundation in March 2009. To ensure a smooth transition, three CRF Governors served as nominated Trustees until October 2012. Through its activities in 26 George Street, the Foundation meets its objective of preserving and conserving the architectural, scientifi c and cultural heritage of Scotland. In parallel, the Foundation aims to develop the Scottish public’s understanding of science, engineering and technology and the part they play in increasing wealth and quality of life, and to foster greater collaboration between the academic and business communities in Scotland. The Foundation calls upon the broad intellectual resources of the Fellowship of the Society in the promotion of these objectives.

Estab- lished by the Society on 7 June 2012, the SCIO’s charitable purpose is the advancement of education, the arts, heritage, culture or science, and citizenship or community development. It currently oversees the governance of the RSE Young Academy of Scotland, which is an activity operating within the SCIO’s auspices. It is responsible for the appointment of Academy members and for monitoring its activities, but does not seek to direct the Academy in relation to its day to day operations. The SCIO’s Trustees are appointed by the Society’s Council. Each Trustee is permitted to hold offi ce for a period of up to three years, and may thereafter hold offi ce for a further period of up to three years, but after that period may not again be appointed as Trustee until a period of one year has elapsed.

  • The Fourth Report of Senior Pay and Perks in UK Universities History This
    Transparency at the top? The fourth report of senior pay and perks in UK universities History This is the fourth report on pay and perks at the top of British higher education institutions (HEIs) to be published by the University and College Union (UCU). It forms part of the union’s ongoing campaign for greater transparency in higher education, including the rationale behind senior pay rises. UCU submitted a Freedom of Information (FoI) request to 158 HEIs in October 2017. This followed similar requests submitted in 2016, 2015 and 2014. All requests were designed to shine a light on the arbitrary nature of senior pay and perks in universities, and support the union’s call for reform. The basis for this report The FoI request that forms the basis of this report was sent to 158 (HEIs). It requested details of vice-chancellors’ (or head of institution if known by a different title) salaries and those of other senior post-holders earning over £100,000 at the institution during the academic year of 2016/17 (1 August 2016 to 31 July 2017). It also asked for details of flights, spending on hotels, spending on expenses and if the vice-chancellor was provided with accommodation by the university. Finally, we requested to know whether or not the vice-chancellor was a member of the remuneration committee, and requested a copy of the most recently ratified minutes of the institution’s remuneration committee. Variety of responses The questions on expenditure on flights, hotels, expenses and accommodation for vice-chancellors elicited a huge variation in responses with many institutions deploying exemptions under the Freedom of Information Act to avoid providing data.

Innovative science, engineering and technology are as fundamental to Scotland’s future economic prosperity as they have been to its economic development over the past two centuries, driving growth in the fast-changing world of the 21st century. They are a major element of Scotland’s heritage, culture and well-being, and our prospects as a successful nation in the 21st century will require new generations of ambitious young scientists and engineers to drive forward innovative technologies. Scotland also needs a scientifically-literate population of well-informed and responsible citizens to engage in driving forward not only our economic ambitions but also those of sustainability, the improvement of our natural and living environments, and the delivery of our climate change targets.

The mixing of circular helicates derived from different amines led to the complete exchange of the N-alkyl residues on the periphery of the metallo-supramolecular scaffolds over 4 days in DMSO at 60 °C. Under similar conditions, deuterium-labeled and nonlabeled building blocks showed full dialdehyde building block exchange over 13 days for open circular helicates but was much slower for the analogous closed-loop pentafoil knot (>60 days). Although both knots and open circular helicates self-assemble under thermodynamic control given sufficiently long reaction times, this is significantly longer than the time taken to afford the maximum product yield (2 days). Highly effective error correction occurs during the synthesis of imine-based pentafoil molecular knots and pentameric circular helicates despite, in practice, the systems not operating under full thermodynamic control.
