Photosynthetic Systems and Physical Biosciences are the two complimentary programs within BES that fund basic research in energy-relevant biological sciences. These two programs along with the Solar Photochemistry program comprise the DOE BES Photochemistry and Biochemistry Team. As illustrated by the abstracts in this volume, you – the scientists supported by this program – are generating important fundamental knowledge of natural photosynthesis. Because of your productivity, creativity, and commitment to world-class research, Photosynthetic Systems is a vibrant, innovative program that tackles long-standing questions and explores new scientific frontiers in photosynthesis research and the processes of energy capture, conversion, and storage in biological systems. This research is central not only to DOE’s mission but also for addressing many of the challenges facing our nation and, indeed, the world. The primary purpose of this meeting is to foster exchange of scientific information on your DOE-funded work and build a robust community of photosynthesis researchers. Accordingly, the meeting format is designed to promote sharing of new ideas and methodologies between you and your colleagues; facilitate cooperation and collaboration among research groups; stimulate creativity and challenge you with new ideas and paradigms; and provide opportunities for you to interact with DOE Program Managers and staff. We are looking forward to the presentations of your impressive individual research programs. Whether you are delivering a talk or presenting a poster, we sincerely appreciate your contribution. Your commitment is inspiring and we both learn from and share the excitement of your scientific achievements. In closing, we also want to thank Diane Marceau from DOE BES and Connie Lansdon and Tim Ledford from Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education (ORISE) for their invaluable help in planning and successfully executing the many logistical tasks associated with this meeting.

UMI films the text directly from the original or copy submitted. Thus, some thesis and dissertation copies are in typewriter face, while others may be from any type of computer printer. The quality of this reproduction is dependent upon the quality of the copy submitted. Broken or indistinct print, colored or poor quality illustrations and photographs, print bleedthrough, substandard margins, and improper alignment can adversely affect reproduction. In the unlikely event that the author did not send UMI a complete manuscript and there are missing pages, these will be noted.

  • Ingredients for Success 18Th HFSP Awardees Meeting
    Ingredients for success In 2018, we yet again embarked on a new era in the HFSP by Guntram Bauer Fellowship program. After careful internal discussion and HFSPO Director of Scientific Affairs and Communications preparations, the review committee was presided over by a non- reviewing chair. Peter Koopman from the Institute of Molecular Bioscience of the University of Queensland took center stage as chair of this committee. Peter finished a four year tenure as a member of the fellowship review committee in 2016 and arrived back in Strasbourg after a three month sailing trip in the southern Pacific. Peer review at HFSP is not reading tea leaves but serious and demanding work for all involved. Thanks to Peter Koopman we successfully completed the first fellowship review committee run by a non-reviewing chair. We are still not sure what the magic ingredient was that made this fellowship committee stand out. Whether it was a truly committed international review panel, or the drive and oversight of its non-reviewing chair, or simply because of the HFSP Sauce which arrived in the chair's suitcase in Strasbourg. Probably all three, though be assured that we will get to the bottom of the HFSP Sauce! I don’t think we are boasting about HFSP when we say that our Program always tries to synchronize its procedures with the dynamics at the frontiers of science. This is particularly true for our peer review process. Over many years we have made more than just subtle changes to our procedures in response to feedback from the scientific community.

Special emphasis is given to the support and training of independent young investigators, beginning at the postdoctoral level. The Program is implemented by an international organisation, supported financially by Australia, Canada, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, the Republic of Korea, New Zealand, Norway, Singapore, Switzerland, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Nothern Ireland, the United States of America, and the European Commission. Since 1990, over 7000 researchers from more than 70 countries have been supported. Of these, 28 HFSP awardees have gone on to receive the Nobel Prize. 2 The following documents are available on the HFSP website www.hfsp.org: Joint Communiqués (Tokyo 1992, Washington 1997, Berlin 2002, Bern 2004, Ottawa 2007, Canberra 2010, Brussels 2013, London 2016): https://www.hfsp.org/about/governance/membership Statutes of the International Human Frontier Science Program Organization: https://www.hfsp.org/about/governance/hfspo-statutes Guidelines for the participation of new members in HFSPO: https://www.hfsp.org/about/governance/membership General reviews of the HFSP (1996, 2001, 2006-2007, 2010, 2018): https://www.hfsp.org/about/strategy/reviews Updated and previous lists of awards, including titles and abstracts:
