I invite your attention to the report in this newsletter (p.30) by Iris Torriani (who is also the IUCr representative to the ACA) on the Inter-American Workshop on the Use of Synchrotron Radiation held in Campinas, Brazil in December 2002, in which several of our U.S. colleagues participated. On behalf of Council, I reiterate Past President Charlie Carterʼs invitation calling attention to the new ACA fund to help provide partial support for attendance at ACA meetings by Latin American crystallographers (as well as to the other worthwhile funds that ACA members have been so generous in establishing and supporting.) One big thing we have on our collective horizon is the annual ACA meeting, to be held this July 26-31 in Northern Kentucky/ Cincinnati. Jeanette Krause Bauerʼs program committee has organized a tightly interlocking schedule of sessions, symposia, and workshops that constitute the scientific centerpiece of our gathering. Both the breadth and the focus of the scientific content of our meetings get better and better, as the ACA SIGs take on a large responsibility for planning and organizing sessions and symposia. And the local committee, headed by Bobby Barnett, has arranged for great facilities and a firm infrastructure for our many activities, both scientific and social, (including, of course, the annual banquet, and even a riverboat dinner cruise at the end of the meeting). We appreciate the innumerable hours of preparation that Bobby, Jeanette, and their committees have already devoted and will continue to commit through what promises to be one of our finest ACA meetings. And in very encouraging news, early indications are that the Exhibit Show at the Northern Kentucky/Cincinnati meeting will be both larger and more varied than ever before. This development, along with the report from the Buffalo office that, despite the current general economic and business climate, ACA now has its largest number ever of corporate members, is further indication of the key position of crystallographic endeavors in todayʼs science and technology. We remain grateful to our industrial and corporate colleagues for this continued support of ACA and of crystallography. I hope to see you in Northern Kentucky in July! Ray Davis Guest Editorial: Former ACA President Penelope Codding ensure the ethical conduct of research. There are many other forms of misconduct or misdoing that are subtle and not governed by the rules, or in the words of the opening metaphor, not policed by traffic cops. Are we preparing our students for the situations that call for moral judgements - for making decisions that consider conflicting needs or rights, and that affect the welfare of others? The discovery of the structure of DNA was a signal achievement in science and is rightly celebrated. It is also right to remind ourselves of the dark side of this discovery, that the authors of that important paper

    AHMED H.

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.

  • The Past Decade and the Future of Cosmology and Astrophysics
    Towards a New Enlightenment? A Transcendent Decade The Past Decade and the Future of Cosmology and Astrophysics Martin Rees Martin Rees is a cosmologist and space scientist. After studying at Cambridge University, he held various posts in the UK and elsewhere, before returning to Cambridge, where he has been a professor, Head of the Institute of Astronomy, and Master of Trinity College. He has contributed to our understanding of galaxy formation, black holes, high-energy phenomena in the cosmos, and the concept of the multiverse. He has received substantial international recognition for his research. He has been much involved in science-related policy, being a member of the UK’s House of Lords and (during 2005–10) President of the Royal Society, the independent scientific academy of the UK Martin Rees and the Commonwealth. Apart from his research publications, he writes and University of Cambridge lectures widely for general audiences, and is the author of eight books, the most recent being On the Future (2018). Recommended books: Universe, Martin Rees, Dorling Kindersley, 2012; On the Future, Martin Rees, Princeton University Press, 2018. In the last decade, there has been dramatic progress in exploring the cosmos. Highlights include close-up studies of the planets and moons of our Solar System; and (even more dramatic) the realization that most stars are orbited by planets, and that there may be millions of Earth-like planets in our Galaxy. On a still larger scale, we have achieved a better understanding of how galaxies have developed, over 13.8 billion years of cosmic history, from primordial fluctuations.

  • Creative Genesis Escalating Naturalism and Beyond
    Philosophy, Theology and the Sciences 1(2014):9-35 DOI 10.1628/219728314X14946985796871 © Mohr Siebeck Holmes Rolston III Creative Genesis Escalating Naturalism and Beyond Does a plausible worldview need some explanations that exceed the natural? Hard naturalisms insist not, but softer, or more open naturalisms find that natural processes can produce ever more complex results – moving from matter to life to mind – in a superb natural history. This invites a religious naturalism, and challenges it. Repeatedly the critical junctures require analysis pressing beyond merely scientific explanations: whether such narrative history is self-explanatory, whether each stage is sufficient for the next when more emerges out of less, what account to give of the creative genesis found in cybernetic genetics, the rise of caring, surprising serendip- ity, the opening up of new possibility space. Even scientific rationality depends on non-empirical logic, particularly in mathematics. Thoughtful persons are the most remarkable result arising out of natural history. If there is no supernature, at least nature is super. Further still, the intensity of personal experience suggests the Pres- ence of transcending divine Logos, in, with, and under nature. 1. Nothing but Nature? When something has been explained as being “natural,” are explanations over? Local scientific explanations (how it rains) leave room for more inclu- sive explanations. Why is there the phenomenon of water with its unique properties, making life possible? One may get a further explanation how water came to be formed or placed on Earth, the polar nature of the water molecule, its liquidity, and so on. But there will linger the still further ques- tion: whether the presence of water signals any propensity of nature to sup- port life.

  • War of Letters Over Call to Abolish EC Scientific Adviser Role
    War of letters over call to abolish EC scientific adviser role | Science | theguardian.com War of letters over call to abolish EC scientific adviser role Jean-Claude Juncker will make a final decision on whether he wants a chief scientific adviser when he takes office later this year. Photograph: Olivier Hoslet/EPA Battle lines are being drawn in scientific communities across Europe after an open letter from NGOs earlier this week called into question the need for a chief scientific adviser working for the president of the European Commission. On Friday their call for the role's abolition provoked two further open letters supporting the post from major scientific organisations, including the Wellcome Trust and Royal Institution. Nine NGOs, including Greenpeace, wrote an open letter on Tuesday to Jean-Claude Juncker, the incoming president of the EC, demanding that the position be scrapped. The NGOs called the role, which was introduced in 2012 by current EC president José Manuel Barroso and has been occupied since then by a biologist at the University of Aberdeen, Prof Anne Glover, "fundamentally problematic". Their letter argued that the non-elected role concentrated too much influence in one person, undermining research by the wider science community, while being non-transparent and unaccountable. The letter took particular issue with Glover's pro GM crops stance. The NGOs want the president to take advice from a number of independent sources. Other signatories included GM Watch and the Health and Environment Alliance. In response, two more open letters were sent to Juncker on Friday, signed by numerous European scientific organisations, supporting the CSA role and its independence.

  • 30388 OID RS Annual Review
    Review of the Year 2005/06 >> President’s foreword In the period covered by this review*, the Royal Society has continued and extended its activities over a wide front. There has, in particular, been an expansion in our international contacts and our engagement with global scientific issues. The joint statements on climate change and science in Africa, published in June 2005 by the science academies of the G8 nations, made a significant impact on the discussion before and at the Gleneagles summit. Following the success of these unprecedented statements, both of which were initiated by the Society, representatives of the science academies met at our premises in September 2005 to discuss how they might provide further independent advice to the governments of the G8. A key outcome of the meeting was an We have devoted increasing effort to nurturing agreement to prepare joint statements on the development of science academies overseas, energy security and infectious diseases ahead particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, and are of the St Petersburg summit in July 2006. building initiatives with academies in African The production of these statements, led by the countries through the Network of African Russian science academy, was a further Science Academies (NASAC).

    JOURNAL OF COMPUTATIONAL AND GRAPHICAL STATISTICS , VOL. , NO. ,– https://doi.org/./.. Years of Data Science David Donoho Department of Statistics, Stanford University, Standford, CA ABSTRACT ARTICLE HISTORY More than 50 years ago, John Tukey called for a reformation of academic statistics. In “The Future of Data Received August Analysis,” he pointed to the existence of an as-yet unrecognized science, whose subject of interest was Revised August learning from data, or “data analysis.” Ten to 20 years ago, John Chambers, JefWu, Bill Cleveland, and Leo Breiman independently once again urged academic statistics to expand its boundaries beyond the KEYWORDS classical domain of theoretical statistics; Chambers called for more emphasis on data preparation and Cross-study analysis; Data presentation rather than statistical modeling; and Breiman called for emphasis on prediction rather than analysis; Data science; Meta inference. Cleveland and Wu even suggested the catchy name “data science” for this envisioned feld. A analysis; Predictive modeling; Quantitative recent and growing phenomenon has been the emergence of “data science”programs at major universities, programming environments; including UC Berkeley, NYU, MIT, and most prominently, the University of Michigan, which in September Statistics 2015 announced a $100M “Data Science Initiative” that aims to hire 35 new faculty. Teaching in these new programs has signifcant overlap in curricular subject matter with traditional statistics courses; yet many aca- demic statisticians perceive the new programs as “cultural appropriation.”This article reviews some ingredi- ents of the current “data science moment,”including recent commentary about data science in the popular media, and about how/whether data science is really diferent from statistics.
