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 HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets,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.

  • Metabolic Tracing of NAD Precursors Using Strategically Labelled Isotopes of NMN
    A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Metabolic tracing of NAD+ precursors using strategically labelled isotopes of NMN by Lynn-Jee Kim Supervisors Dr. Lindsay E. Wu (Primary) Prof. David A. Sinclair (Joint-Primary) Dr. Lake-Ee Quek (Co-supervisor) School of Medical Sciences Faculty of Medicine Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname/Family Name: Kim Given Name/s: Lynn-Jee Abbreviation for degree as give in PhD the University calendar: Faculty: Faculty of Medicine School: School of Medical Sciences + Thesis Title: Metabolic tracing of NAD precursors using strategically labelled isotopes of NMN Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is an important cofactor and substrate for hundreds of cellular processes involved in redox homeostasis, DNA damage repair and the stress response. NAD+ declines with biological ageing and in age-related diseases such as diabetes and strategies to restore intracellular NAD+ levels are emerging as a promising strategy to protect against metabolic dysfunction, treat age-related conditions and promote healthspan and longevity. One of the most effective ways to increase NAD+ is through pharmacological supplementation with NAD+ precursors such as nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) which can be orally delivered. Long term administration of NMN in mice mitigates age-related physiological decline and alleviates the pathophysiologies associated with a high fat diet- and age-induced diabetes. Despite such efforts, there are certain aspects of NMN metabolism that are poorly understood. In this thesis, the mechanisms involved in the utilisation and transport of orally administered NMN were investigated using strategically labelled isotopes of NMN and mass spectrometry.

  • Elucidation of the Developmental and Physiological Roles of Nad+ Biosynthetic Pathways

McReynolds © 2017 Melanie R. McReynolds Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2017 The dissertation of Melanie R. McReynolds was reviewed and approved* by the following: Wendy Hanna-Rose Associate Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee Craig E. Cameron Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Eberly Chair in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Teh-hui Kao Distinguished Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Chair of Plant Biology Graduate Program Lorraine Santy Associate Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Pamela A. Hankey-Giblin Professor of Immunology Andrew D. Patterson Associate Professor of Molecular Toxicology Special Signatory David Gilmour Professor of Molecular and Cell Biology Co-Director for Graduate Education in BMMB *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT NAD+ biosynthesis has proven to be an attractive and promising therapeutic target for influencing healthspan and obesity-related phenotypes as well as tumor growth. However, NAD+ is a key metabolite that impacts the entire metabolome. Therefore, it is necessary to elucidate exactly how manipulating NAD+ biosynthetic pathways can lead to therapeutic benefits. Also, it is imperative to characterize the unexpected adverse reactions to manipulating the biosynthetic pathways to fully utilize this target for drug discovery. The goal of our research is to understand how NAD+ homeostasis is maintained to support its core metabolic roles and its signaling and regulatory roles involving NAD+ consumers.

  • The New South Wales Parliament Under Siege
    ‘Build your House of Parliament upon the River’: The New South Wales Parliament under siege Gareth Griffith and Mark Swinson * You must build your House of Parliament upon the river . the populace cannot exact their demands by sitting down round you. — The Duke of Wellington This piece of advice is attributed to the Duke of Wellington, a man who knew about such things as pickets and blockades, but also about Parliament and its ways. On Tuesday 19 June 2001, a part of the populace associated with the trade union movement, determined to have its demands satisfied, massed round the New South Wales Parliament House. For those who do not know it, the New South Wales Parliament is not built on a river, or a harbour for that matter, but on the crest of a modest rise, fronted by Macquarie Street to the west and, at the rear, by Hospital Road and beyond that by a spacious open area called the Domain. To the north side is the State Library building; to the other, Sydney Hospital. At its height, in the early afternoon of 19 June, the Parliament was surrounded by a demonstration estimated to be 1,000 strong. The Premier called it a ‘blockade’. 1 Unionists called it a ‘picket’. 2 Some press reports referred to it as a ‘riot’. 3 * Gareth Griffith is a Senior Research Officer with the New South Wales Parliamentary Library; Mark Swinson is Deputy Clerk of the Legislative Assembly, Parliament of New South Wales. 1 L.

    ACADEMIC FREEDOM AND INSTITUTIONAL AUTONOMY IN AMERICAN AND AUSTRALIAN UNIVERSITIES: A TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY DIALOGUE AND A CALL TO LEADERS PATRICK D. PAUKEN† BOWLING GREEN STATE UNIVERSITY, USA Within the context of academic freedom and institutional autonomy, and ultimately with respect to the important roles played by university leaders, this article explores the current dialogue among American and Australian university players, both individual and institutional, as those players search for, develop, define, modify, and proclaim their respective voices and messages, particularly in a world where the role and position of universities are changing. I INTRODUCTION In 1964, Marvin L. Pickering, a public school teacher in Illinois, wrote a letter to the editor of a local newspaper criticising his board of education for the board’s appropriation of funds and its handling of two failed tax levy campaigns. The board countered with accusations that the statements in the letter were false and had a negative impact on the efficient operation of the schools. The board of education then fired Pickering.1 Meanwhile, in Australia, administrators at the University of Sydney vetoed the appointment of philosophy professor Frank Knopfelmacher after he exposed Communist infiltration in some of the academic units at the University of Melbourne.2 Fast forward to 2005. Ward Churchill, faculty member in the University of Colorado’s ethnic studies department, came under significant fire on campus and throughout the United States for his written and spoken arguments that, among other comments, the victims of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, were ‘little Eichmanns’ and presumably deserved their fate.
