Extractions: Dr. Yuan T. Lee About TIGP F ounded in 1928, Academia Sinica is the most important research institution in Taiwan. More than one thousand researchers from Taiwan and abroad, most of them revered scholars in their respective fields, work diligently within the Academia Sinica's twenty-six research institutes. The mission of the Academia Sinica is to undertake in-depth academic research on various subjects in the sciences and humanities, and to provide guidelines, channels of coordination, and incentives geared toward raising academic standards in this country. Dr. Yuan T. Lee, a Nobel laureate in Chemistry in 1986, became President of Academia Sinica in 1994. Under his leadership, Academia Sinica has been transformed into a modern research institution. Among other things, Dr. Lee has succeeded in inviting numerous top-notch scholars to visit Taiwan or to head research teams at this institution. As a result, Academia Sinica is currently able to work and contribute on an international level. Academia Sinica has also focused on three core research disciplines: mathematics and physical sciences; humanities and social sciences; and life sciences.

Extractions: A Harvard University professor of chemistry and two colleagues were jointly awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry yesterday for work that an American Chemical Society spokesman said "opened up important new fields of chemistry and . . . has really dramatic implications." The professor, Dudley R. Herschbach, who has taught chemistry at Harvard since 1963, said winning the recognition is "a lot of fun. Work that you do out of pure love is now being recognized." Herschbach shared the award with Taiwan-born Yuan T. Lee of the University of California at Berkeley and John Polanyi of the University of Toronto. The research, done independently by the three chemists, has allowed scientists to zero in on the behavior of individual molecules in a chemical reaction rather than just looking at the overall behavior of a large mass. The new understandings made possible by this research, according to Eric Leber of the American Chemical Society, could have profound applications in such varied areas as improving the efficiency of industrial chemical reactions, improving the ability to burn coal and other fuels cleanly and understanding reactions in the earth's atmosphere such as the depletion of the protective ozone layer by various chemicals.

Extractions: At a press conference yesterday, Dudley R. Herschbach downplayed his musical talents, compared basic research to the fine arts and made the scientific discovery for which he received the Nobel Prize in chemistry sound deceptively simple. And then he donned a baseball cap and joked about the Red Sox. "The exciting thing about the Red Sox is the improbability of it all," said the Harvard University chemistry professor, referring to the team's comeback in the American League playoffs. "There must be divine intervention here. That's the only way to explain it." Longtime friends say Herschbach's performance was typical of the professor, whose outside interests extend from athletics to the arts to canoeing. In addition to being a top-notch research scientist, they said, he has a rare degree of human warmth and compassion. Throughout his teaching career, they added, he has expressed a special concern for undergraduates. Six years ago, they said, Herschbach, along with his wife, Georgene, agreed to serve as comasters at Currier House, a large residence hall on the Harvard- Radcliffe campus.
Asia Pacific Transcripts would offer the premiership to the nobel laureat, Dr WU lee yuantseh is such a highlyrespected figure in close associates have told him, they don't want him http://www.abc.net.au/ra/asiapac/archive/2000/mar/raap-30mar2000-1.htm
Extractions: WU: Tang Fei has been serving as Minister of Defence for a couple of years, and he's been respected in a society in general. And he is also highly respected among the military. He is quite competant with American scholars who deal with the Cross-Strait policy, and deal with the regional security issues, (they) have all say that Tang Fei is very competant and very energetic military officer. WU: I'm not sure whether Tang Fei's appointment would improve the Cross-Strait relations. But as you may know, the Cross-Strait relations are not very good recently because China has such a negative influence, or a negative view on Chen Shui-bian and on the DPP as a whole, and if the tension continues to grow, we need to have somebody who is well informed about the Cross-Strait relations and about the military. So having Tang Fei out there as a premier will have a force of psychological stability among the people here in Taiwan. People will feel more secure once conflict erupts...we'll have somebody out there to defend Taiwan.

Extractions: The University of California, Berkeley, can boast of having 17 Nobel Laureates in its distinguished history of research and discovery. Beginning with Ernest O. Lawrence in 1939, these professors represent a wide range of scholarly pursuits: from physics to economics, from molecular and cell biology to slavic languages and literature. Cal has had more Nobel Laureates than any other American university except Harvard and the University of Chicago.

Raymond Andrew, University of Florida, Gainesville Most Frequently Cited Forebears (tie): J.J. Thomson and Ernest B. Rutherford L ast March, APS News announced a PhD lineage contest, in which entrants were asked to trace their professional "family tree" - i.e., the production of doctoral level physicists by their thesis advisors - as far back as possible. We received many entries, often containing fascinating historical details, and were impressed at the considerable effort expended by certain members to trace their academic lineage. In many cases, the submissions included substantial, detailed commentary based on exhaustive research. The further back in time our amateur geneologists went, the more blurred the lines between the disciplines became. Chemists, mathematicians, medical doctors, and apothecaries appear regularly prior to the 19th century, along with geologists involved with mining concerns. Those APS members strongly rooted in chemistry had something of an unfair advantage, thanks to an established tradition of tracking intellectual lineage in chemistry. Many can track their ancestry back to such 18th-century luminaries as Claude-Louis Berthollet and Antoine Lavoisier. In the spirit of professional inclusion, the judges did not quibble as to whether a lineage was strictly in "physics," provided the submission was made by an APS member.

The Glory Of Nobel Prize Even though every citizen has the right to vote, the political framework isn't perfect. Afterbidding farewell to Dr. yuanTseh lee, I kept on thinking of http://www.pcsh.tpc.edu.tw/1/li.htm
Extractions: Dr. Lee 1961 B efore the age of 50, it seemed that his whole life was spent in the laboratory. Today, he is always busy training the next generation of talented scientists. The sudden desire came upon me to shout out to him, "Thank you Dr. Lee." Only a Chinese person would probably have such deep feelings for him..... Dr. Lee 1999 F rom 1840, due to a total disregard and lack of knowledge of contemporary science and technology, the Chinese were defeated on their own soil time and again by technologically superior countries such as Great Britain, France and Japan. Perhaps out of aggravation over their losses, the Chinese people in Taiwan emphasized science and technology within education. After Dr. Yuan-tseh Lee won the Nobel Prize in 1986, he gave up his high-paying job abroad and returning to Taiwan, devoted himself serving his fellow Taiwanese in the academic world. His life achievements far exceeded that of an ordinary leader. It makes me feel honored and privileged to have had the opportunity to interview Dr. Lee. Dudley Herschbach, Yuan-tseh Lee, and J. Polanyi jointly won the Nobel Prize in 1986.
Nobel Laureate Can't Help Chen nobel laureate can't help Chen. ee yuantseh announced his resignation as presidentof the However, it seems unlikely that lee's support will help Chen win more http://www.taiwanheadlines.gov.tw/20000315/20000315o1.html
Extractions: Source: The China Post ee Yuan-tseh announced his resignation as president of the prestigious Academia Sinica on Monday to make himself available to be DPP presidential candidate Chen Shui-bian's chief adviser on national policies, if Chen wins the election. The 1986 Nobel Prize-winning chemist's move is likely to give Chen's performance a boost in Saturday's poll, given his outstanding academic status and active devotion to educational and social reforms since his return from the United States six years ago. However, it seems unlikely that Lee's support will help Chen win more votes on the crucial issue of Taiwan's relations with mainland China an area where Chen is politically vulnerable. By endorsing Chen's campaign at this moment, Lee apparently hopes to help him overcome that weakness, seen by many as Chen's Achilles' heel.

Extractions: Source: The China Post iding on the prestige generated by the tacit endorsement of Nobel prize winning academic Lee Yuan-tseh, the Democratic Progressive Party's (DPP's) Chen Shui-bian said yesterday that he is elected president, Lee would guide cross-strait relations but that the Kuomintang's (KMT's) top Beijing negotiator, Koo Chen-fu would be retained in a central role, a suggestion greeted with scorn by President Lee Teng-hui yesterday. Chen said Lee, president of the Academica Sinica and the highest ranking member of his planned national policy advisory group, would lead cross-strait negotiations but he also planned to seek the assistance of Koo Chen-fu, chairman of Taipei's semi-official organization for negotiating with Beijing, the Straits Exchange Foundation (SEF).
