Extractions: Research on the structure of boranes, which has increased the understanding of chemical bonding Lipscomb had had quite a bit of experience by the time he elucidated the unusual chemical make-up of boron - off to college in 1937, he donated his elaborate chemistry set to his high school, doubling the school's chemistry inventory. The scientist, known for his clarinet playing and Western-style bow ties, describes his mode of reasoning: "I am inclined to make large intuitive jumps and then set about to test the conclusions." Lipscomb is the Abbott and James Lawrence Professor of Chemistry Emeritus. John H. Van Vleck 1899-1980 Pioneered the application of quantum mechanics to the study of magnetism Van Vleck, known for his love of the arts, his quietly piercing wit, and his intense loyalty to Harvard, made cutting-edge contributions to the fields of radioastronomy, microwave spectroscopy, and magnetic resonance. His application of quantum mechanics altered both physics and chemistry, deepening our understanding of atomic systems - from single molecules to crystalline solids. Sheldon L. Glashow 1932-

Extractions: The history of science is marked with milestone discoveries made by individuals whose genius and vision have transformed our understanding of nature. Linus Pauling was one such individual. His work spanned and stretched the frontiers between traditional disciplines chemistry and areas of physics, mineralogy and biology and opened up whole new areas of research for later generations of scientists. In 1948 (Pauling 1948a) Pauling formulated the "postulate of the essential electroneutrality of atoms: namely, that the electronic structure of substances is such as to cause each atom to have essentially zero resultant electrical charge, the amount of leeway being not greater than about ñ«. These resultant charges are possessed mainly by the most electropositive and electronegative atoms, and are distributed in such a way as to correspond to electrostatic stability." By that time I had left Caltech to teach at the University of Minnesota, but Eddie Hughes reported to me that the following exchange took place in Pauling's presentation of the electroneutrality principle:

Extractions: The most profound danger to world peace in the coming years will stem not from the irrational acts of states or individuals but from the legitimate demands of the world's dispossessed. Of these poor and disenfranchised, the majority live a marginal existence in equatorial climates. Global warming, not of their making but originating with the wealthy few, will affect their fragile ecologies most. Their situation will be desperate and manifestly unjust. Also See: It cannot be expected, therefore, that in all cases they will be content to await the beneficence of the rich. If then we permit the devastating power of modern weaponry to spread through this combustible human landscape, we invite a conflagration that can engulf both rich and poor. The only hope for the future lies in co-operative international action, legitimized by democracy. It is time to turn our backs on the unilateral search for security, in which we seek to shelter behind walls. Instead, we must persist in the quest for united action to counter both global warming and a weaponized world.

Broad Forty-one American Nobel laureates in science and economics issued a declaration yesterday opposing a preventive war against Iraq without wide international support. The statement, four sentences long, argues that an American attack would ultimately hurt the security and standing of the United States, even if it succeeds. The signers, all men, include a number who at one time or another have advised the federal government or played important roles in national security. Among them are Hans A. Bethe, an architect of the atom bomb; Walter Kohn, a former adviser to the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency at the Pentagon; Norman F. Ramsey, a Manhattan Project scientist who readied the Hiroshima bomb and later advised NATO; and Charles H. Townes, former research director of the Institute for Defense Analyses at the Pentagon and chairman of a federal panel that studied how to base the MX missile and its nuclear warheads. In addition to winning Nobel prizes, 18 of the signers have received the National Medal of Science, the nation's highest science honor.

Year Winner Country* Achievement Hoff van't , Jacobus H Netherlands for work on rates of reaction, chemical equilibrium, and osmotic pressure Fischer, Emil Germany Fischer's research on the purines was instituted in 1881. He determined the structures of uric acid, xanthine, caffeine, theobromine, and other related compounds, and he showed that they are all derivatives of a single compound, a nitrogenous base that he named purine. Despite major complications because of stereochemical relations, Fischer was able to use these derivatives to determine the molecular structures of fructose, glucose, and many other sugars, and he was able to verify his results by synthesizing those compounds. He also showed how to distinguish the formulas of the 16 stereoisometric glucoses. In the course of his stereochemical research, Fischer discovered that there are two series of sugars, the D sugars and the L sugars, that are mirror images of each other. His study of sugars led him to investigate the reactions and substances involved in fermentation, and, in his investigations of how enzymes break down sugars, Fischer laid the foundations for enzyme chemistry.

Extractions: CHEMISTRY 1976 William N. Lipscomb, Jr. (1919- ), American Work: Determined the structure of boranes and their reactions under various conditions, thus providing new insights into the nature of chemical bonding Nobel Laureate: Born in Cleveland and educated at the University of Kentucky and the California Institute of Technology, Lipscomb rose through the professional ranks of the University of Minnesota for 13 years before joining the Harvard faculty in 1959. Although borane research took up much of his early career, recently he has turned to the study of large proteins. The lanky laureate lives in Belmont, Mass. A talented musician, he plays the clarinet for a chamber music group and loves to sit in on living room jam sessions with his son on French horn and his daughter on cello. Tennis keeps him fit. Nobel Lore: Champagne corks flew in Harvard's Gibbs Chemistry Lab when the news from Stockholm hit the Cambridge campus, as students and faculty alike toasted the new laureate. As for Lipscomb, he was flabbergasted. "I knew I had written a lot of nice papers about boranes," he admitted, "but I never actually knew that anyone read them. In science, when you're working on highly original research, the only thing you worry about is not falling flat on your face in your next publication." The $160,000 prize ended, or at least interrupted. organic chemistry's long domination of the awards. The American sweep of the prizes in 1976 led some to speculate that the newly installed pro-West government in Stockholm had twisted a few arms on the Nobel committee to honor the U.S. in this. its bicentennial year. So widespread were the rumors that Sune Bergstrom, chairman of the Nobel Foundation, felt compelled to deny the charge in his opening address at the December ceremony.

Such attempts in other mammals often have catastrophic outcomes. Furthermore, virtually nothing is known about the potential safety of such procedures in humans. Consequently, there is widespread and strong agreement that an attempt to clone a human being would constitute unwarranted experimentation on human subjects and should be prohibited by legislation that imposes criminal and civil penalties on those who would implant the product of nuclear transplantation into a womans uterus. Unfortunately, some legislation, such as that introduced by Senator Brownback (R-KS) would foreclose the legitimate use of nuclear transplantation technology for research and therapeutic purposes. This would impede progress against some of the most debilitating diseases known to man. For example, it may be possible to use nuclear transplantation technology to produce patient-specific embryonic stem cells that could overcome the rejection normally associated with tissue and organ transplantation. Nuclear transplantation technology might also permit the creation of embryonic stem cells with defined genetic constitution, permitting a new and powerful approach to understanding how inherited predispositions lead to a variety of cancers and neurological diseases such as Parkinsons and Alzheimers diseases.
