Isn’t it so heartening to see the daily increases in numbers of people being vaccinated? As the vaccination programme continues to be rolled out, we can all begin to genuinely look forward with hope and anticipation as more of us and our loved ones benefit from the protection the vaccine provides. Our editor, Dr Patrick Hobbs, is to be congratulated once again for putting together yet another excellent issue of the Irish Chemical News. He has provided a comprehensive editorial so I shall focus my message predominantly on our recent ICI award ceremony. First, as you know, we hosted a virtual ICI Award Ceremony on Thursday, 29th April, 2021. We are grateful to all those who presented and also to all those who attended. A special congratulations to Professor AP De Silva from QUB, recipient of the ICI Boyle Higgins Gold Medal and Lecture Award 2020, who delivered an inspirational award lecture on ‘Fluorescent Sensing and Logic Systems’. Professor De Silva has kindly agreed for us to share a recording of this lecture, which will be published shortly on the ICI website. Congratulations also to Dr Conor Crawford, one of the ICI Postgraduate awardees in 2020. Conor delivered an insightful presentation into his quest for a cryptococcal vaccine. Unfortunately, the other ICI Postgraduate awardee in 2020, Dr Priyanka Ganguly, was unable to present her award lecture due to circumstances beyond her control but we were delighted that one of her supervisors, Professor Suresh Pillai, stepped in at short notice. Professor Pillar provided a wonderful insight into Priyanka’s research and outreach contributions. We wish Conor and Priyanka continued success. The call is now open to submit nominations for both the ICI Boyle Higgins Gold Medal and Lecture award 2021 and the ICI Postgraduate Award 2021 with a deadline date of Friday, 18th June, 2021. I would encourage you please to submit nominations. This is an excellent opportunity to acknowledge our colleagues and postgraduate scholars who are achieving excellence in their respective fields. During the award ceremony, we also announced the recipient of the ICI David Brown Award – Professor Nicholas Farrell, Virginia Commonwealth University, USA. Our warmest congratulations to Professor Farrell who has significantly contributed to the field of bioinorganic chemistry. Professor Farrell delivered an outstanding award lecture entitled ‘Inorganic Drugs - Away from DNA and Back?’ during the Inorganic Ireland Symposium, which was hosted recently by Dr Constantina Papatriantafyllopoulou and local organizing committee, NUIG. Professor Farrell, a UCD graduate, brought the first non-classical platinum anti-cancer drug to late stage clinical trials some years ago. It is heartening to see that he is still pushing the boundaries in this important field. The ICI Young Chemists’ Network (YCN) is continuing to work hard to support our young chemists as outlined by Dr Mark Kelada during the award ceremony. For those interested in learning more about the ICI YCN, please check the website for updates https://www.chemistryireland.org/young-chemists- network and also follow them on Twitter: @ICIYCN and on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ICIYoungChemists/about IRISH CHEMICAL NEWS ISSUE NO.2 MAY 2021 7 I was particularly pleased, during the award ceremony, to acknowledge Dr Raymond Leonard’s enormous contribution to the ICI which spans over half a century. We wish Dr Leonard continued good health and happiness as he retires from Council. Dr Eoghan McGarrigle, Council member and assistant honorary treasurer, is also stepping down from Council, having served on Council for a number of years. We sincerely thank Dr McGarrigle for sharing his expertise on Council and we likewise wish him continued happiness and success. I am delighted to say that Professor Michael Lyons, Head of the School of Chemistry, TCD, will be joining us on Council following his election onto Council during the ICI AGM, which was held immediately following the award ceremony. We are very much looking forward to working with Professor Lyons and availing of his expertise and experience. A special word of congratulations to Professor Dervilla Donnelly, Emeritus Professor of Phytochemistry, UCD, who was awarded an honorary ICI Fellowship during our AGM which she so richly deserves. Professor Donnelly has not only had a highly distinguished career in academia but has also contributed significantly to the wider community serving in a variety of leadership roles. I am also pleased to acknowledge Prof John Wenger, Professor of Chemistry and Director of the Centre for Research into Atmospheric Chemistry, UCC, who has recently been appointed to the Environmental Protection Agency’s Advisory Committee. It is wonderful that Chemistry is being represented and I have no doubt that Professor Wenger will play an instrumental role in shaping policies and practices in this important field. Since the last ICN issue, and following an external, independent review of nominations submitted for the ICI Annual Award for Chemistry (Eva Philbin Public Lecture Series) 2020, I am delighted to note that Professor Declan Gilheany is the 2020 award recipient. We are very much looking forward to Professor Gilheany’s public lectures which he plans to deliver in the near future, most likely virtually. These will be publicized in advance on the ICI website and via email to all ICI members. Finally, may I pay a special words of thanks to Dr Peter Childs for providing a fascinating paper which is published in this issue on the Irish Seaweed Industry 18th – 21st Century. Dr Childs was awarded an ICI honorary fellowship in 2020. Please do not hesitate to get in contact if you would like the Institute to showcase any updates that you may have both in the ICN and under the ‘Latest News’ section on our website https://www.chemistryireland.org/latest-news On behalf of Council, may I wish you all continued good health and happiness. Professor Celine J. Marmion PhD FRSC FICI President, Institute of Chemistry of Ireland 21st May, 2021 IRISH CHEMICAL NEWS ISSUE NO.2 MAY 2021 8 Editorial As we enter May and summer approaches we have 4 approved Covid-19 vaccines being widely administered and hospital admittance and deaths have decreased dramatically. There are some concerns as daily new infections have plateaued which is likely linked to social behaviour. The success of the vaccines being available in a year is a great testament to the scientists and medics who cooperated across all disciplines on an international level to give us this success. There are some concerns with the viral vector vaccines and very rare blood clots which seem to affect women more than men and we don’t yet understand why. There are also concerns with supplies. Manufacturing new vaccines on short timelines is a major challenge, in some cases with shortages of raw materials such a nucleic acids which are mainly manufactured in the US who still ban exports. AstraZeneca/Oxford in particular have problems supplying the expected quantities. They are new to vaccines manufacture and have mainly been a cancer drug company. The manufacturing process is biological and variability is to be expected. Knowhow and experience is vital especially when manufacturing at multiple locations and coordinating all this activity at the contract manufacturing organisations. They have set the goal of supplying at cost which is admirable. In my opinion the EU suing in European courts is not helpful and could discourage future risky efforts by pharmaceutical companies. There is a lot of talk in the news feeds about suspending Intellectual Property rights and Patents on the vaccines.

  • Former Fellows Biographical Index Part
    Former Fellows of The Royal Society of Edinburgh 1783 – 2002 Biographical Index Part Two ISBN 0 902198 84 X Published July 2006 © The Royal Society of Edinburgh 22-26 George Street, Edinburgh, EH2 2PQ BIOGRAPHICAL INDEX OF FORMER FELLOWS OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF EDINBURGH 1783 – 2002 PART II K-Z C D Waterston and A Macmillan Shearer This is a print-out of the biographical index of over 4000 former Fellows of the Royal Society of Edinburgh as held on the Society’s computer system in October 2005. It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography.

  • Lettre Conjointe De 1.080 Parlementaires De 25 Pays Européens Aux Gouvernements Et Dirigeants Européens Contre L'annexion De La Cisjordanie Par Israël
    Lettre conjointe de 1.080 parlementaires de 25 pays européens aux gouvernements et dirigeants européens contre l'annexion de la Cisjordanie par Israël 23 juin 2020 Nous, parlementaires de toute l'Europe engagés en faveur d'un ordre mondial fonde ́ sur le droit international, partageons de vives inquietudeś concernant le plan du president́ Trump pour le conflit israeló -palestinien et la perspective d'une annexion israélienne du territoire de la Cisjordanie. Nous sommes profondement́ preoccuṕ eś par le preć edent́ que cela creerait́ pour les relations internationales en geń eral.́ Depuis des decennies,́ l'Europe promeut une solution juste au conflit israeló -palestinien sous la forme d'une solution a ̀ deux Etats,́ conformement́ au droit international et aux resolutionś pertinentes du Conseil de securit́ e ́ des Nations unies. Malheureusement, le plan du president́ Trump s'ecarté des parametres̀ et des principes convenus au niveau international. Il favorise un controlê israelień permanent sur un territoire palestinien fragmente,́ laissant les Palestiniens sans souverainete ́ et donnant feu vert a ̀ Israel̈ pour annexer unilateralement́ des parties importantes de la Cisjordanie. Suivant la voie du plan Trump, la coalition israelienné recemment́ composeé stipule que le gouvernement peut aller de l'avant avec l'annexion des̀ le 1er juillet 2020. Cette decisioń sera fatale aux perspectives de paix israeló -palestinienne et remettra en question les normes les plus fondamentales qui guident les relations internationales, y compris la Charte des Nations unies. Nous sommes profondement́ preoccuṕ eś par l'impact de l'annexion sur la vie des Israelienś et des Palestiniens ainsi que par son potentiel destabilisateuŕ dans la regioń aux portes de notre continent.
