Extractions: HOME SITE HELP ABOUT SEARCH ... EDUCATIONAL Grandfather Josef, a shoemaker, immigrated to the U.S. from Bohemia in 1913. My other grandparents, also of Czech origin, were first-generation Americans. My father was and is a physician, my mother the homemaker. I was born in Chicago on December 8, 1947. The safe streets and good schools of Iowa City, Iowa provided the backdrop for the childhood years of my sister Barbara,my brother Richard and myself. My father, who loved physics as much as medicine, interjected a scientific approach and point of view into most every family discussion. I discovered science for myself in fourth grade, collecting rocks and minerals and worrying about how they were formed. By the time I was in junior high school, I would knock on Geology professors' doors at the University of Iowa, asking to see models of crystal structures and to discuss meteorites and fossils. In 1966 I entered Grinnell College, where I was to derive as much enjoyment studying Homer's Odyssey, Dante's Inferno, and Constitutional History as Chemistry. I met Carol over the melting point apparatus in a make-up Organic Chemistry lab, starting the partnership of our lives that is now more than 20 years old. The Chemistry I appreciated the most from textbooks was physical chemistry. However, undergraduate research experiences at Argonne National Laboratory and at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory taught me that I didn't have a long enough attention span for the elaborate plumbing and electronics of gas-phase chemical physics. I was later attracted to biological chemistry because of the almost daily interplay of experimental design, observation, and interpretation.

Thomas R. Cech Summary Tom cech and his group are working to understand the structure andfunction of catalytic RNA molecules and the activity and thomas R. cech http://www.hhmi.org/research/investigators/cech.html
Extractions: A cell must orchestrate thousands of chemical reactions in order to live, to grow, and to respond to its environment. These chemical reactions rarely happen spontaneously but are usually catalyzed by macromolecules called enzymes. It was long thought that all enzymes were proteins. More recently we and others have found that RNA can in some cases act as an enzyme. The finding of RNA catalysis has several implications. First, it means that RNA is not solely a passive carrier of genetic information but can participate actively in directing cellular biochemistry. In particular, many RNA-processing reactions, as well as protein synthesis on ribosomes, are at least in part catalyzed by RNA. Second, the study of how RNA enzymes work may reveal hitherto unknown mechanisms of biologic catalysis. Third, RNA enzymes (ribozymes) have the potential to provide new therapeutic agents. For example, ribozymes efficiently cleave and thereby destroy viral RNAs under controlled laboratory conditions, making it plausible that ribozymes might be able to inactivate viruses in animals, including people.

Remarks By Thomas R. Cech University of Chicago. Biology s Revolution Opportunities and Challenges forUniversities thomas R. cech President, Howard Hughes Medical Institute http://www.aau.edu/aau/Cech10.00.html
Extractions: President, Howard Hughes Medical Institute Good morning. It is a special pleasure to be back in Chicago, the city where I was born, and at the University of Chicago, where I have enjoyed many fine events through the years and have many colleagues. In fact, two former students from my laboratory became tenured faculty members here at the university. It is also a thrill for me to be able to talk about the future of education and research at universities with the people who are guiding these great institutions in the twenty-first century. We are already into this century, of course, but we still have ninety-nine years to make good on whatever we decide to do. Our invitation requested that we each talk about the past, present, and future of our own research disciplines. I was asked to speak before I had become president of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, so I planned to give you a view "from the trenches," drawing on my twentythree years of carrying out research, teaching general chemistry and biochemistry to undergraduates, and teaching graduate students at the University of Colorado at Boulder. Now, having taken on the Howard Hughes position, I feel inclined also to address some higher-level issues. So this is going to be a discussion of what biological research is like and how it is changing, mixed in with a look at some of the ways that institutions might respond to new challenges.
Extractions: Lecturers Born in Chicago, Illinois on December 8, 1947, Tom Cech was raised and educated in Iowa (B.A. in Chemistry from Grinnell College, 1970). He obtained his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of California, Berkeley and then engaged in postdoctoral research in the Department of Biology at M. I. T. in Cambridge, Massachusetts. In 1978 he joined the faculty of the University of Colorado, Boulder, where he became a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator in 1988 and Distinguished Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry in 1990 Dr. Cech's work has been recognized by many national and international awards and prizes, including the Heineken Prize of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Sciences (1988), the Albert Lasker Basic Medical Research Award (1988), the Nobel Prize in Chemistry (1989), and the National Medal of Science (1995). In 1987 Dr. Cech was elected to the U.S. National Academy of Sciences and also awarded a lifetime Professorship by the American Cancer Society. In 2000 Dr. Cech moved to Maryland to be president of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. He continues research on ribozyme structure and on telomerase in his Boulder, Colorado laboratory.

Thomas R. Cech - Nature Medicine thomas R. cech. Karen Birmingham. Chevy Chase HHMI president Tom cech talkedto Nature Medicine about his vision for the organization s future. http://www.nature.com/nm/journal/v7/n2/full/nm0201_140.html
Extractions: doi:10.1038/84561 Karen Birmingham Chevy Chase The Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI), headquartered in the Chevy Chase suburb of Washington, DC, is the largest non-profit funding body for biomedical research in the US, with an annual budget of around $670 million. Until now, it has been a virtual institute, renowned for sponsoring elite investigators working at over 70 host laboratories around the country. But changes are afoot. HHMI president Tom Cech talked to Nature Medicine about his vision for the organization's future. Thomas R. Cech We began our discussion with the news that the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) is, for the first time, to create a physical campus built on the 281-acre Janeila Technology Park in Loudoun County, Virginia, purchased for $53.7 million. The new campus will focus on "bioinformatics and the development and dissemination of other technologies that cannot be purchased off the shelf," according to Cech. The creation of such a campus is a significant change for an organization that has until now operated by funding researchers within their host facilities. And even though the change will cost more per researcher, Cech says change is needed because the life sciences landscape has changed: "At the time when physics moved to needing big instrumentation and equipment that individual labs couldn't afford, biology was still this wonderful thing you could do in your garage. Now we see things like high-voltage cryo-electron microscopy, which gives an opportunity to look into cells and find out not just where organelles are, but where individual molecules are at any given time. All of this equipment is very expensive and requires a level of staffing and sophisticated support that would be hard to maintain at 70 geographically distinct institutions. By doing this in our own campus we can also make it available to non-Hughes investigators."
