  • President's Message
    Winter Issue 2013–2014 SOT News President’s Message I’m starting this President’s message with a quiz!!! It’s just one question, but it’s important that everyone knows the answer. The question is: What do prenatal programming and toxicity, perfluorinalkyl acids ,and human relevance of hemangiosarcomas in rodents have in common? [the answer appears at the end of this message]. While you ponder the answer to that question, I want to reflect on events of this fall and focus on several activities of the Society during recent times of uncertainty. The shutdown of the US government had some effect on nearly all of us. Important meetings, study sections, and day-to- day professional discussion and dialog were all furloughed during this time. However, the most significant impact was on our members who are government employees, and we can only hope that these matters are completely behind us. Unfortunately, there were significant deadlines for SOT matters scheduled during this time, particularly for abstract submissions and award President nominations. Lois D. Lehman- McKeeman I want to specifically acknowledge the work of the Scientific Program and Awards Committees for showing remarkable flexibility in modifying deadlines to accommodate member needs. As a quick review, the Awards committee moved deadlines for nominations to the last possible minute—giving them only about 1 week to review all nominations prior to meeting to select award winners. The prestigious Society awards are central to celebrating member accomplishments, and the work of this committee, against their own time limitations, underscores their commitment to this important activity.

  • 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.
