Annual Boxer Lecture Epigenetic Regulation of Development in Mammals Monday, October 16, 2000 4:00 PM Waksman Auditorium Home Page Previous Lecturers George E. Boxer, PhD Shirley Tilghman, PhD 2000 Boxer Lecturer Dr. Tilghman is the Howard A. Prior Professor of the Life Sciences in the Department of Molecular Biology at Princeton Univeristy. She is a founding member and first Director of The Institute for Integrative Genomics, a new initiative in life sciences at Princeton University. She obtained her B.Sc. degree at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario, Canada. Following two years in Sierra Leone, West Africa, where she taught secondary school, she attended graduate school at Temple University where she received her PhD in Biochemistry. She did post-doctoral work with Dr. Philip Leder, who was then at the NIH and now is Professor and Chair of Genetics at Harvard Medical School. Dr. Tilghman will talk about the phenomenon of 'Genomic imprinting'. The orderly development of the mammalian embryo requires the appropriate activation of genes. For the vast majority of genes, both the mother's and father's copies are expressed identically. However, for a small class of genes, only the mother's or father's copy is expressed. These genes are said to be imprinted. During the process that generates eggs or sperm, parentally imprinted genes are marked in a way such that the resulting embryo can distinguish the parental origin of the gene and express it accordingly. The genetic and biological implications of this process, while it involves only a few genes are significant.

The Scientist 9[12]:, Jun. 12, 1995 News Observers Fear Funding Practices May Spell The Death Of Innovative Grant Proposals By Billy Goodman Innovative Grant Proposals With fewer applications for support making the cut, novel ideas are the first to go, investigators contend Author: Billy Goodman Point Grants NIGMS' Marvin Cassman agrees that risky proposals don't get funded. The traditional, romantic notion of scientific research is of a glorious, serendipitous journey into the unknown. But this ideal is belied, in the perception of many scientists, by the apparent reality that much of what gets funded these days is less exploratory and more predictable_cloning and sequencing a gene, for example. While not denying the importance of such predictable studies, the scientific community shares a nearly universal conviction that proposals for risky, innovative research stand very little chance of being funded by federal granting agencies. Grant administrators themselves acknowledge that unconventional ideas or those with a short or disputed track record rarely make the cut. "Controversial areas will not do as well as applications where there is broad consensus," states Marvin Cassman, acting director of the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS). "Given the degree of difficulty in funding these days, some applications [in areas] where there is [scientific] disagreement will inevitably find themselves outside the bounds of the funding range." Grant-seeking scientists and funding agency staff also cite the very low percentage of all proposals that are funded as the major reason for the difficulty of getting support for risky research.

Occorre evitare che ci si riduca a meri auspici o petizioni di principio o problemi marginali posti a quanti hanno il compito di assicurarne costituzione e insediamento. Occorre che questo obiettivo politico venga immediatamente perseguito anche con la mobilitazione e il concorso delle pubbliche opinioni, delle forze e delle persone che nel mondo vogliano effettivamente sconfiggere il terrorismo e i regimi violenti che opprimono tanta parte del mondo, con le grandi armi della nonviolenza gandhiana, della democrazia politica, dei principi di giustizia e di libertà, della tolleranza e della umana solidarietà degli stati di diritto.

ESTOCOLMO - Os neurocientistas Arvid Carlsson, Paul Greengard e Eric Kandel foram os ganhadores do Prêmio Nobel de Medicina este ano por desvendarem a química do cérebro humano, explicando como os impulsos elétricos se propagam no sistema nervoso. Os nomes foram revelados ontem por uma comissão de 50 pesquisadores nomeados pelo Instituto Karolinska, na capital sueca. Os vencedores dividirão um prêmio de US$ 915 mil. O sueco Arvid Carlsson, de 77 anos, ex-professor de Farmacologia da University of Gothemburg, coordenou estudos na década de 50 que identificaram a falta do neurotransmissor dopamina como a causa do Mal de Parkinson, doença que leva ao descontrole dos movimentos. Ao detalhar como a dopamina age sobre o cérebro, Carlsson permitiu que medicamentos para combater a doença fossem desenvolvidos. A comunicação entre os mais de 100 bilhões de neurônios que existem no corpo humano só é possível graças aos pontos de contato entre as células nervosas, as chamadas sinapses. As mensagens são transmitidas de neurônio para neurônio por unidades químicas chamadas neurotransmissores, entre os quais a dopamina.

HHMI Issued: October 11, 1999 Updated: January 18, 2000 runews@rockvax.rockefeller.edu Contact: Joe Bonner An average cell possesses about a billion protein molecules that exist in thousands of types and constantly need replacement. Making proteins and shipping them to appropriate destinations, such as the cell's internal organelles, is a vital activity in cells. Proteins are manufactured by cellular structures called ribosomes. Pioneering research by Blobel and his associates revealed how proteins are transported from ribosomes and integrated into other organelles or transported out of the cell. Work in Blobel's laboratory revealed the existence of a zip code system in the cell. Each newly made protein has an organelle-specific address, a stretch of the protein referred to as a signal sequence that is recognized by receptors on an organelle's surface. Blobel and his colleagues also showed that, for at least one organelle called the endoplasmic reticulum, the binding of the signal sequence to its receptor opens a watery channel in the membrane through which the protein can travel. Blobel now works on identifying similar channels in other organelles.

Giuliani honored the winner of the 1999 Nobel Prize in Medicine, Dr. Gunter Blobel, by presenting him with a proclamation declaring October 14, 1999, "Dr. Gunter Blobel Day." Dr. Blobel, a longtime New York City resident and distinguished professor at Rockefeller University, received the Nobel Prize on Monday for his pioneering research on how newly manufactured protein molecules are properly transported within cells. Since cells cannot function without the accurate distribution of protein molecules, Blobel's research revealing the existence of a mapping system within cells has implications for many diseases, including cystic fibrosis, Alzheimer's disease and AIDS. "On behalf of all New Yorkers, I congratulate Dr. Blobel on receiving the prestigous Nobel Prize in Medicine for his groundbreaking lifework in cell biology," the Mayor said. "This year, New York City had the distinction of being home to two Noble Prize winners, Dr. Blobel and Columbia University professor Robert A. Mundell, reflecting our City's long tradition of being a hotbed of innovation and the birthplace of cutting edge ideas. " The Mayor continued, "Many of the world's leading scholars in such diverse fields as economics and physics choose New York City as the place to pursue their ideas. Not only is Dr. Blobel considered one of the preemeninent scientists in his field, he represents the best of New York City's thriving academic and research community. "

Prof. Junona Moroianu (Biology), last week's news that Gunter Blobel had won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was met with more than professional interest. Moroianu worked with Blobel in his laboratory for three years during her doctorate and post-doctorate training. "Gunter is one of the brilliant biologists of the century and I was very fortunate to work in his lab," said Moroianu, who paid a congratulatory visit to her mentor at Rockefeller University shortly after the award was announced. Blobel, Moroianu said, revolutionized the study of cell biology when he hypothesized and proved that proteins have intrinsic signals that guide them from their formation in a cell's cytoplasm to a specific destination within the cell. Her own work in an off-shoot of Blobel's. Moroianu is working under an American Cancer Society grant to determine how macromolecules of human papillomaviruses, which are strongly associated with cervical cancer, enter and exit the nuclei of human cells. Moroianu said she was drawn to BC by the opportunity to design her own lab in the renovated Higgins Hall and the sense of community at BC. "You feel like science matters here," she said, "that this is a good place to do good science."

A note from Conference Director Tim Robinson: 1) A Century of Great Discoveries Survey This past century perhaps witnessed more changes than any other in recorded human history. For the past century many of the individuals or organizations responsible for these changes have been honored with the award of a Nobel Prize. Which discoveries have affected our lives the most? I've put together a survey with two lists: 1) Great Scientific Discoveries; and 2) Great Engineering Achievements ( compiled by the National Academy of Engineers ). I've asked groups that I've spoken to to list the five in each category which affected our lives the most in the past century. I'm collecting the results and will announce them at the conference. This might be a good way to get your students to think about how science and other world events affected the lives of people in the last century. It might also be interesting to compare their responses with that of their parents or grandparents. I'd also be interested in what your students think. You can download the survey from our website and if you collect your student's responses and send them to me (robinson@gustavus.edu) I'll announce them at the conference. 2) Learn About the Nobel Prizes and the Nobel Foundation Nobel Prizes have been awarded to scientists, authors, and other individuals or organizations which have "conferred the greatest benefit on mankind."

WINNERS ANNOUNCED FOR KING FAISAL INTERNATIONAL PRIZES Riyadh, 15 February 2000. HRH Prince Khaled Al Faisal, Director-General of King Faisal Foundation today announced the winners for the 2000 King Faisal International Prizes. The Selection Committees have this year chosen seven laureates for the five Prize topics. Addressing an audience of nearly 400 academics and journalists, Prince Khaled thanked the committee members and expressed his appreciation of their choices. "The objectives of King Faisal International Prize are to reward excellence and to encourage research that benefits mankind. The outstanding contributions made by this year's winners are sure to have meaningful consequences for many people." This year's category for Science was Biology . The prize was jointly awarded to Professor Edward Osborne Wilson of Harvard University and Dr. John Craig Venter of the Institute for Genomic Research. Both laureates are American. Professor Wilson is one of the most outstanding biologists of the century. He has been a pioneer of major scientific disciplines: the field of sociobiology which seeks to elucidate the genetic basis of human and animal behaviour, the study of species within ecosystems, and the conservation of the biological diversity of species. In addition, he has made an ambitious attempt to bring together, in a single conceptural framework, various fields of knowledge, from natural and social sciences to humanities and the arts. Dr. Venter has established novel techniques for the rapid identification of genes and the fast and economical sequencing of entire genomes. These approaches have already revealed the complete genetic make-up of several species of micro-organisms, including agents of human disease. Dr. Venter's work has contributed significantly to the elucidation of the human genome.
