AHMED H. ZEWAIL 26 February 1946 . 2 August 2016
AHMED H. ZEWAIL 26 february 1946 . 2 august 2016 PROCEEDINGS OF THE AMERICAN PHILOSOPHICAL SOCIETY VOL. 162, NO. 2, JUNE 2018 biographical memoirs t is often proclaimed that a stylist is someone who does and says things in memorable ways. From an analysis of his experimental Iprowess, his written contributions, his lectures, and even from the details of the illustrations he used in his published papers or during his lectures to scientific and other audiences, Ahmed Zewail, by this or any other definition, was a stylist par excellence. For more than a quarter of a century, I interacted with Ahmed (and members of his family) very regularly. Sometimes he and I spoke several times a week during long-distance calls. Despite our totally different backgrounds we became the strongest of friends, and we got on with one another like the proverbial house on fire. We collaborated scientifi- cally and we adjudicated one another’s work, as well as that of others. We frequently exchanged culturally interesting stories. We each relished the challenge of delivering popular lectures. In common with very many others, I deem him to be unforgettable, for a variety of different reasons. He was one of the intellectually ablest persons that I have ever met. He possessed elemental energy. He executed a succession of brilliant experiments. And, almost single-handedly, he created the subject of femtochemistry, with all its magnificent manifestations and ramifications. From the time we first began to exchange ideas, I felt a growing affinity for his personality and attitude. This was reinforced when I told him that, ever since I was a teenager, I had developed a deep interest in Egyptology and a love for modern Egypt.

Technological Entrepreneurship – a Key to World Peace and Prosperity”
cc MM CoCorrmickmick NorthwesternNorthwestern Engineering Engineering MaterialMaterialss ScienceScience and and EngineeringEngineering The 2014 McCormick Dean’s Seminar Series Dr. Dan Shechtman – Nobel Laureate Israel Institute of Technology Monday, October 20, 2014 4:00pm, McCormick Auditorium (Allen Center) Reception to follow north of McCormick Auditorium in the Allen Center “Technological Entrepreneurship – a Key to World Peace and Prosperity” Most of the countries in the world lack significant natural resources and are characterized by low standard of living with little hope for improvement due to population growth and mismanagement. This is true also for countries that are rich in natural resources, but do not use them wisely. People that live in countries that enjoy high standard of living are industrious and their countries industrial. The basic reason of this division is technological entrepreneurship nourished by free market economy. Technologically entrepreneurial people make the difference. So, is there hope for everybody on the globe to improve their lives? Can technological entrepreneurship be motivated and taught so that generations of determined entrepreneurs will build up thriving economies? The clear answer to both questions is yes, but the process will take time and dedication. It all starts with education in general and scientific- technical education in particular. There is also a way to expedite the process – start with the already educated engineers and scientists. These are the first candidates for entrepreneurial endeavors. They can do it, but need motivation, continuous instruction and encouraging economic environment until they create successful start-ups and serve as role models for others. The name of the game is motivation.

Nfap Policy Brief » October 2019
NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR AMERICAN POLICY NFAP POLICY BRIEF» OCTOBER 2019 IMMIGRANTS AND NOBEL PRIZES : 1901- 2019 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Immigrants have been awarded 38%, or 36 of 95, of the Nobel Prizes won by Americans in Chemistry, Medicine and Physics since 2000.1 In 2019, the U.S. winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics (James Peebles) and one of the two American winners of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry (M. Stanley Whittingham) were immigrants to the United States. This showing by immigrants in 2019 is consistent with recent history and illustrates the contributions of immigrants to America. In 2018, Gérard Mourou, an immigrant from France, won the Nobel Prize in Physics. In 2017, the sole American winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry was an immigrant, Joachim Frank, a Columbia University professor born in Germany. Immigrant Rainer Weiss, who was born in Germany and came to the United States as a teenager, was awarded the 2017 Nobel Prize in Physics, sharing it with two other Americans, Kip S. Thorne and Barry C. Barish. In 2016, all 6 American winners of the Nobel Prize in economics and scientific fields were immigrants.

Clary, M. Okumura, V. Sundstrom, Nobel Special Issue of Chemical Physics Letters, Chemical Physics Letters (2013), doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cplett.2013.10.045 This is a PDF file of an unedited manuscript that has been accepted for publication. As a service to our customers we are providing this early version of the manuscript. The manuscript will undergo copyediting, typesetting, and review of the resulting proof before it is published in its final form. Please note that during the production process errors may be discovered which could affect the content, and all legal disclaimers that apply to the journal pertain. Nobel Special Issue of Chemical Physics Letters Editorial The hallmark of Chemical Physics Letters is the fast publication of urgent communications of the highest quality. It has not escaped our notice that this policy has allowed several of the breakthrough papers in chemistry to be published in our journal. Indeed, looking through Chemical Physics Letters over the last 42 years we found papers published by as many as 15 authors who went on subsequently to win the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for work linked to their articles. Furthermore, several of these papers were referenced in the Nobel citations. We thought our readers would find it of interest to see a collection of these papers brought together and introduced with summaries explaining their significance and written by the Nobelists themselves, close colleagues or editors of the journal.

Shinya Yamanaka Is Focused on Daily Efforts to Realize Clinical Applications of Ips Cells As Soon As Possible and Deliver the Benefits to Patients
Director, Center for iPS Cell Research President & Chief Executive Officer, and Application (CiRA), Kyoto University The Norinchukin Bank Shinya Yamanaka is focused on daily efforts to realize clinical applications of iPS cells as soon as possible and deliver the benefits to patients. Despite busy days traveling not only nationwide frequently but also between Japan and the United States every month, Dr. Yamanaka maintains an exercise routine of running. His favorite running course during his frequent Tokyo visits is the area surrounding the Imperial Palace. At our request, he stopped by The Norinchukin Bank’s Head Office, which faces the moat of the Imperial Palace, for a talk with Kazuto Oku, who recently became President & Chief Executive Officer of The Norinchukin Bank. 8 prising that you run almost every day.
