This seal, approved on June 26, 1856, consisted of an open book surrounded by rays of light and circled by the words North western University, Evanston, Illinois. Thirty years later Daniel Bonbright, professor of Latin and a member of Northwestern’s original faculty, redesigned the seal, Whatsoever things are true, retaining the book and light rays and adding two quotations. whatsoever things are honest, On the pages of the open book he placed a Greek quotation from the Gospel of John, chapter 1, verse 14, translating to The Word . whatsoever things are just, full of grace and truth. Circling the book are the first three whatsoever things are pure, words, in Latin, of the University motto: Quaecumque sunt vera whatsoever things are lovely, (What soever things are true). The outer border of the seal carries the name of the University and the date of its founding. This seal, whatsoever things are of good report; which remains Northwestern’s official signature, was approved by if there be any virtue, the Board of Trustees on December 5, 1890. and if there be any praise, The full text of the University motto, adopted on June 17, 1890, is think on these things. from the Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Philippians, chapter 4, verse 8 (King James Version).

  • 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.

  • See the Scientific Petition
    May 20, 2016 Implement the Endangered Species Act Using the Best Available Science To: Secretary Sally Jewell and Secretary Penny Prtizker We, the under-signed scientists, recommend the U.S. government place species conservation policy on firmer scientific footing by following the procedure described below for using the best available science. A recent survey finds that substantial numbers of scientists at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration believe that political influence at their agency is too high.i Further, recent species listing and delisting decisions appear misaligned with scientific understanding.ii,iii,iv,v,vi For example, in its nationwide delisting decision for gray wolves in 2013, the FWS internal review failed the best science test when reviewed by an independent peer-review panel.vii Just last year, a FWS decision not to list the wolverine ran counter to the opinions of agency and external scientists.viii We ask that the Departments of the Interior and Commerce make determinations under the Endangered Species Actix only after they make public the independent recommendations from the scientific community, based on the best available science. The best available science comes from independent scientists with relevant expertise who are able to evaluate and synthesize the available science, and adhere to standards of peer-review and full conflict-of-interest disclosure. We ask that agency scientific recommendations be developed with external review by independent scientific experts. There are several mechanisms by which this can happen; however, of greatest importance is that an independent, external, and transparent science-based process is applied consistently to both listing and delisting decisions.

B. Woodward) 1966-1968 ■ACADEMIC APPOINTMENT Instructor of Chemistry, Nagoya University 1966-1970 Associate Professor of Agricultural Chemistry, Nagoya University 1970-1974 Visiting Professor of Chemistry, Harvard University 1972-1973 Professor of Chemistry, Harvard University 1974-1982 Morris Loeb Professor of Chemistry, Harvard University 1982-2002 Morris Loeb Professor of Chemistry, Emeritus, Harvard University 2002- ー2ー ■RESEARCH TOPICS (chronological order) 1. Chemical studies of bioluminescence: The luminescent substance named luciferin is an unstable compound, making its structural determination extremely difficult. Dr. Kishi, however, determined the structures of luciferins, such as those in Cypridina, Genji fireflies, krill, dinoflagellates, and the luminous shellfish of Latia (1960s–1980s). 2. Total synthesis of complex natural products: The pufferfish toxin tetrodotoxin, the structure of which was determined in 1964, is still known as one of the most difficult natural products to synthesize due to its highly functionalized structural complexity. Dr. Kishi achieved the world’s first total synthesis of this compound in 1972. Later, he achieved total synthesis of the paralytic shellfish toxin saxitoxin, the anticancer drug mitomycin C, the fungus toxin sporidesmin, and the β-lactam antibiotics (1970s–1980s). 3. Development of acyclic stereocontrol in total synthesis of natural products: Until the early 1970s, total synthesis of polyether antibiotics was almost impossible due to the presence of numerous asymmetric centers.

I also want to thank my thesis commitee Dr. Miguel Beato, Dr. Jordi Garcia-Ojalvo and Dr. Tanya Vavouri for guidance and valuable scientific imput whenever I needed it along these years. I want to thank my mentor Dr. Guillaume Filion, not only for giving me the opportunity to carry this work in a wonderful environement, but for teaching me. No matter the tigh schedule he has allowed me to sit by his side (literally) reviewing a script at the computer, calculating the probaility of plasmid recircularization or deriving a statistical formula at the white board but also helping me to prepare and electroporate a bacterial library in what seemed a contraction of space-time. I want to thank the community of the CRG, always ready to discuss science and life in the corridors, the data seminars, symposiums, the beer sessions or following a mail asking for advice or materials. People at the administration helped enormously to navigate the tortuous bureaucratic world, maximizing the time one can dedicate toscience. ¡Dónde estaría yo sin tu puerta siempre abierta, Imma, madre en funciones de todo phD student!

The number of translational scientific discoveries and technological innovations derived from the center’s research labs over the course of the past three decades has been remarkable. Equally remarkable have been the number of scientific awards and honors, including Nobel prizes, received by Beckman faculty and the number of young scientists mentored by Beckman faculty who have gone on to prominent positions in academia, bio-technology and related fields. This year we include several featured articles on these accomplishments. In the field of translational medicine, these discoveries range from the causes of skin, bladder and other cancers, to the identification of human stem cells, from the design of new antifungals and antibiotics to the molecular underpinnings of autism, and from opioids for pain
