His intellectual incisiveness, warmth and breadth of knowledge guided and inspired a great many scientists throughout their careers. Robert was born in Norwich in 1923, the youngest of four children: John and Isobel were born before WWI, and Wendy and Robert afterwards. His father Ernest was a G.P. who served in the Royal Army Medical Corps during WWI while his mother Isabella, a trained nurse, looked after the Norwich practice. From primary schools in Norwich, Robert went to Oundle School in 1935. As soon as he turned seventeen, Robert volunteered for the RAF. After a frustratingly long period of training he was assigned to Coastal Command, where he became a pilot flying Catalina and then Sunderland flying boats. Following his release in January 1946, Robert came up to St. John’s to read Natural Sciences (Zoology) graduating with First Class honours whilst simultaneously being awarded a BSc at the University of London. He spent many hours bird watching on the Cambridge Sewage Farm, where he identified a breeding pair of Moustached Warblers, not seen in the UK before or since.

  • The 67Th OSU International Symposium on Molecular Spectroscopy on Behalf of the Executive Committee, Frank Delucia, Anne B
    Welcome to the 67th OSU International Symposium on Molecular Spectroscopy On behalf of the Executive Committee, Frank DeLucia, Anne B. McCoy, and myself, I extend a heartfelt welcome to all the attendees to the 67th Symposium and welcome you to The Ohio State University and Columbus. The Symposium presents research in fundamental molecular spectroscopy and a wide variety of related fields and applications. The continued vitality and significance of spectroscopy is annually re-affirmed by the number of talks, their variety, and the fact that many are given by students. These presentations are the heart of the meeting and are documented by this Abstract Book. Equally important is the information flowing from informal exchanges and discussions. As organizers, we strive to provide an environment that facilitates both kinds of interactions. The essence of the meeting lies in the scientific discussions and your personal experi- ences this week independent of the number of times that you have attended this meeting. It is our sincere hope that you will find this meeting informative and enjoyable both scientifically and personally, whether it is your first or 50th meeting. If we can help to enhance your experience, please do not hesitate to ask the Symposium staff or the Executive Committee. Terry A.

    August 17, 2012 Dear Dr. Geschwind, Dr. Lloyd, and Members of the Working Group, In advance of the Working Group on the Use of Chimpanzees in NIH Supported Research’s September 5th meeting, NEAVS would like to take this opportunity to provide you with a list of over 835 members of the scientific, academic and health professional communities who support ending the use of chimpanzees in biomedical research and testing, and retiring the chimpanzees. This petition, combined with evidence published in peer-reviewed journals, demonstrates that the use of chimpanzees in research is not widely accepted in the scientific community, and chimpanzee research is unnecessary for human scientific and medical progress. There are compelling reasons to immediately retire chimpanzees being held for biomedical research and testing. Of the approximate 937 chimpanzees in U.S. labs, only about 10-20% are in active research protocols. Their use has decreased dramatically and is at an historic low. A citation analysis found that greater than 85% of chimpanzee studies are not cited or not cited with any relevance to human medicine. The remaining 15% had contributed little, if anything, to the outcome of studies reporting an advance in human clinical practice. The contributors to those studies’ findings were a wide array of in vitro research methods, human clinical and epidemiological investigations, molecular assays and methods, genomic studies, etc. These alternatives and others confirm research involving chimpanzees does not meet the IOM guiding principle that it be necessary to advance the public’s health. There are extensive and fundamental genetic reasons why chimpanzees, however closely related, are not and can never be good models for human research.

It was filmed at UCLA in 1987. The Tavistock Clinic: It is now more properly called the “Tavistock and Portman National Health Service Trust” although in the film and this guide we continue to call it the “Tavistock Clinic.” It was founded in 1920 on Tavistock Square in the Bloomsbury district of London. After World War II it became part of the British National Health Service system and subsequently moved to its current location in Northwest London. Bowlby worked in both locations, seeing clients and supervising staff and trainees. Bowlby Conference: The conference featured in this film was entitled Bowlby’s Legacy at His Centenary and took place in May 2007. Speakers included: Christopher Culow, Ph.D., Past director of the Tavistock Center for Couple Relationships, London Peter Fogany, Ph.D., University of London Jeremy Holmes, Ph.D., Psychotherapist University of Exeter Sebastian Kraemer, M.D., Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist, Whittington Hospital, London Margaret Rustin, MACP, Tavistock Clinic Howard Steele, Ph.D., New School for Social Research, New York City Joan Stevenson-Hinde, Ph.D., Emeritus Senior Research Fellow, Department of Zoology, University of Cambridge Judith Trowell, M.D., University of Worcester All of the speakers have lectured and written widely in the field of attachment relationships.

Pp. 85-114 in Migratory Animal PathologicalSurvey: Annual ProgressReport 1969. San Francisco: U.S. Army Research& Develop- ment Group, Far East.--The first part of this paper summarizes previous litera- ture on migration in eastern Asia, most of which consistedof plotting of hypotheti- cal "routes" of migration. Presumably the arrows on these maps should not be construed as the only flight paths of birds: if so they would literally darken the sky along strategic lines such as the coast of China and the Ryukyu chain. The main part of the paper summarizes2,623 recoveriesof nearly 200 species,obtained from 945,782 birds banded under the auspicesof MAPS since 1963. There are many interesting features of these recoveriesand of the maps based on them, but the peculiar concentrationsof the recoveries--especiallyswallows in Korea and herons in the Philippines--and the complete lack of reports from China indicate that the geographicaldistribution of recoveriesis extraordinarily biased. Banding a million birds in seven years, in a program which started literally from scratch, is a great achievement.
