He sought no less than to capture the nation’s history and the unique American experience, and in doing so, he coined a new phrase: The American Dream is that dream of a land in which life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement. Nearly a century later, the Dream endures—in the US and around the world—but it faces new challenges. As just one example, a recent study suggests that the probability of a 30-year-old earning more than his or her parents dropped from 70 percent in 1970 to 50 percent in 2014. Preserving the spirit of the Dream is core to the Milken Institute’s three-decade mission of driving shared prosperity by widening access to capital, creating jobs, and improving health. Over the next several days, you’ll interact with 5,000 leaders and decision-makers from more than 60 nations and nearly every US state. Participants include heads of state; members of the US Administration and Congress; CEOs and heads of private equity rms; members of our Global Capital Markets Advisory Council as well as money managers who, together, oversee more than $50 trillion in assets; current and past military and diplomatic leaders; philanthropists and Giving Pledgers; current and former heads of government health agencies; entertainers and media gures; athletes; artists; and more. Our 800 speakers will address topics spanning 12 tracks: nance, government, medical research/public health, nutrition/food sustainability, equality, energy/environment, philanthropy, technology/media, education/jobs/human capital, aging/longevity, industry and regions. Each session is designed to focus on solutions rather than a recitation of challenges, and our speakers and researchers have come prepared to offer their best ideas and supporting data. This is a not a forum for rehearsed speeches, but rather a marketplace of ideas to help attendees rene their own positions— and then to go out into the world and make them reality. And with as many as many as 15 concurrent sessions and countless opportunities to visit with fellow participants in the corridors and in private meetings, no two Global Conference experiences are the same. You choose your own adventure. Choose well, enjoy your time, and thank you for joining us. We wish you a productive and stimulating experience. Michael Milken Michael L.

Governor State Treasurer January 20, 2012 MEMORANDUM TO: The State Investment Council FROM: Timothy Walsh Director SUBJECT: Proposed Investment in Neuberger Berman/New Jersey Custom Investment Fund II (“NB/NJ Custom Fund II”) The New Jersey Division of Investment (“Division”) is proposing an investment of $200 million in Neuberger Berman/New Jersey Custom Investment Fund II (“NB/NJ Custom Fund II”). This memorandum is presented to the State Investment Council (the “Council”) pursuant to N.J.A.C. 17:16- 69.9. As part of NJDOI’s separate account mandate to achieve attractive risk adjusted returns while promoting economic benefits within the State of New Jersey and Northeast region, staff and SIS are recommending a commitment to NB/NJ Custom Fund II. A report of the Investment Policy Committee (“IPC”) summarizing the details of the proposed investment is attached. Division Staff and its private equity consultant, Strategic Investment Solutions, undertook extensive due diligence on the proposed investment in accordance with the Division’s Alternative Investment Due Diligence Procedures. As part of its due diligence process, staff determined that the fund has not engaged a third-party solicitor (a "placement agent") in connection with New Jersey’s potential investment. We will work with representatives of the Division of Law and outside counsel to review and negotiate specific terms of the legal documents to govern the investment. In addition, the proposed investment must comply with the Council’s regulation governing political contributions (N.J.A.C.

  • Details Subject to Change. MGI Workshop Part 1
    MGI Workshop Part 1: Dr. Kwong Wai Choy (Richard) Associate Professor, Dept of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Deputy Director, Prenatal Genetic Diagnosis Centre, The Chinese University of Hong Kong Bio: Dr. Choy obtained his BSc degree in Biomedical Sciences from the University of Bradford and M(Med)Sc in Immunology at University of Birmingham, UK. He received postgraduate training in genetics and was awarded Doctor of Philosophy by The Chinese University of Hong Kong in 1999. Dr. Choy’s main research interests include the development of novel molecular diagnostic strategies and innovative applications of molecular analysis tools in prenatal diagnosis. His current research focuses on (1) structural genomic variation (including copy number variants); (2) development and application of the microarray-based Comparative Genomic Hybridization (array CGH) and massively parallel sequencing technology for prenatal diagnosis. In 2007 he founded the Agilent microarray core facilities in CUHK, which is the first centre of its kind in Asia dedicated to prenatal diagnosis with a focus on molecular basis of normal and abnormal fetal development. Dr. Choy is an Honorary Scientific Officer (medical) at the New Territories East Cluster of Hospitals, Hong Kong, where he is involved in the delivery of the laboratory diagnostic service. He is also the board member of the Hong Kong Society of Medical Genetics since 2009. Title: Low-Pass Genome Sequencing versus Chromosomal Microarray Analysis: Implementation in Prenatal Diagnosis Abstract: Emerging studies suggest that low-pass genome sequencing (GS) provides additional diagnostic yield of clinically significant copy-number variants (CNVs) compared with chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA). However, a prospective back-to-back comparison evaluating accuracy, efficacy, and incremental yield of low-pass GS compared with CMA is warranted.
