Bishop, J. Michael "And what have kings that privates have not too, Save ceremony, save general ceremony?" William Shakespeare, in Henry the Fifth, IV. 1, 243-244 My youth held little forecast of a career in biomedical research. I was born on February 22, 1936, in York, Pennsylvania, and spent my childhood in a rural area on the west bank of the Susquehanna River. Those years were pastoral in two regards: I saw little of metropolitan life until I was past the age of twenty-one; and my youth was permeated with the concerns of my father's occupation as a Lutheran minister, tending to two small parishes. My most tangible legacy from then is a passion for music, sired by the liturgy of the church, fostered by my parents through piano, organ and vocal lessons. I am deeply grateful for the legacy, albeit apostate from the church. I obtained eight years of elementary education in a two-room school, where I encountered a stern but engaging teacher who awakened my intellect with instruction that would seem rigorous today in many colleges. History figured large in the curriculum, exciting for me what was to become an enduring interest. But I heard little of science, and what I did hear was exemplified by the collection and pressing of wild flowers. My high school was also small: eighty students graduated with me, few of whom eventually completed college. Tests conducted before I graduated predicted a future for me in journalism, forestry or the teaching of music; persons who know me well could recognize some truth in those seemingly errant prognoses.

J. Michael Bishop will present Neurath Lecture next week Nobel Laureate J. Michael Bishop, chancellor and professor at the University of California, San Francisco, will be at the UW next week to present the 17th annual Hans Neurath Lecture for the Department of Biochemistry. Bishop Along with Dr. Harold Varmus, now president of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York and former National Institutes of Health director, Bishop in 1989 received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discovery that normal cells contain genes capable of becoming cancer genes. Bishop has continued his investigations of these cells, called oncogenes, and their precursors, often called proto-oncogenes. He is an internationally recognized authority on the molecular mechanisms of cancer. His early research training was focused on the molecular biology of animal viruses such as poliovirus. He then turned his interest to Rous sarcoma virus, the first of the retroviruses to be studied, and used molecular hybridization as an approach to study how retroviruses replicate themselves. Still working with the Rous sarcoma virus, Bishop and Varmus showed that the oncogene

These books (or stories) are referred to as Phantom Titles. The following titles (listed alphabetically) can be acknowledged as such. Michael Bishop's comments follow the note on each title [Source: email to MHH 5/11/99] Alien Graffiti A collection of Michael Bishop's selected non-fiction pieces was to be published by Mark Ziesing (circa 1986/87). This book got as far as the printer's tear sheets, but was never published. MB adds: The printer doing the first run could never get stuff right, and the potential cost of correcting everything scared Mark, I think. He decided the book could never be profitable even if it sold a few copies.

Malloy Managing Editor Barbara Gabriel Senior Staff Writer Suria Santana Staff Writer AAMC Newsroom Nobel Laureates Gather at Annual Meeting to Speculate on the Future of Medical Education By Barbara A. Gabriel Donald Kennedy, Ph.D., editor-in-chief of Science magazine, moderated a group discussion among four Nobel Laureates at the AAMC's 112th Annual Meeting that addressed pressing issues in medical education. Moderated by Donald Kennedy, Ph.D., editor-in-chief of Science , a lively discussion among four Nobel Laureates on Nov. 5 at the AAMC's Annual Meeting revolved around issues ranging from the impact of the Human Genome Project on medical education to the need to promote student interest in scientific study. David Baltimore, Ph.D., president of the California Institute of Technology and winner of the 1975 Nobel Prize for discoveries concerning the interaction between tumor viruses and the genetic material of the cell, emphasized the need to bring "the enormous strength of the range of American science" to bear on the study of genomics in the wake of the Human Genome Project. He noted the need for interdisciplinary study in this area, including the work of non-medical schools. When the discussion turned to the recent threat of bioterrorism, Dr. Baltimore called for a "credible national voice" to communicate health information to the public. Americans would be put more at ease, said Dr. Baltimore, by a respected medical leader than by politicians who, though well-meaning, lack medical expertise.

Making History Making History Print Version UCSF's Road to Discovery UCSF began to develop its stellar research reputation in the 1920s when Karl F. Meyer established the only laboratory in the Western Hemisphere to study plague and encephalitis. UCSF scientists also are credited with discovering vitamin E, developing new dysentery treatments, introducing new anesthetics, mass-producing a plague vaccine for World War II soldiers and establishing the nation's first cancer research center. Now, 80 years later, the road of discovery has become long and distinguished - a fact underlined by the three Nobel prizes awarded UCSF scientists, including Chancellor Mike Bishop, in the last decade for seminal work in cancer and brain disease. The new campus at Mission Bay, and the innovative research programs to take place there and at UCSF's other locations, represent the University's continuing commitment to advance the cause of human health well into the next century. UCSF is the only University of California campus devoted solely to health and biomedical sciences. Today, with it fourfold mission of teaching, research, patient care and community service, UCSF is considered one of the world's premier health science institutions. Its schools of dentistry, medicine, nursing and pharmacy and its graduate division in the biological sciences all rank among the nation's top professional programs.
