Gilbert Stork (1921-1 was born on Mew Year s eve in Brussels, Belgium. He received his secondary education in France, his undergraduate degree atthe University of Florida, and his Ph.D. with Samuel McElvain atthe University of Wisconsin in 1945. Following s period on the faculty at Harvard University, he has been professor of chemistry at Columbia University since 1953. A world leader in the development of organic synthesis. Stork has devised many useful new synthetic procedures and has accomplished the laboratory synthesis of many complex molecules.

When Professor Rieger first became interested in ESR, commercial instruments were not available. His introduction to the field, as a graduate student with George Fraenkel at Columbia University, took place in one of the few laboratories in the world at the time where ESR equipment had been built. Upon arriving at Brown his first item of business was to design and construct a spectrometer. The instrument was eventually retired once reliable, sensitive commercial instruments became available. Nevertheless, that first spectrometer enabled one of us (ALR) to begin a scientific collaboration that lasted the rest of Phil s life, and the other (RGL) to get his own career started at Brown. 

Bell Telephone Laboratories asked me to stop, because they said, look, there are some engineering things that we d like you to do that would be much more important to us. But I didn t want to do that, and I said, look, I really want to do some physics, and they let me do it. And I continued to do microwave spectroscopy, and pretty soon microwave spectroscopy was interesting enough to other physicists that I got a job at Columbia University. And so I moved to academia because industry wasn t all that interested in the field.

Andrew Regan was born in Rawtenstall, Lancashire and studied at the University of Cambridge, where he obtained his BA in 1981 (MA 1985), and his PhD in 1984, under the supervision of Professor Jim Staunton. From 1984-1985 he held an SERC-NATO Research Fellowship at Columbia University in the laboratories of Professor Gilbert Stork. He returned to the UK in 1985 to a lectureship in organic chemistry at the University of Kent at Canterbury, and since 1990 has been a lecturer in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Manchester. His research interests include the synthesis of phosphinic-acid hormone mimics, simplified macrolide antibiotics and anti-tumour compounds, stereoselective methodology, and the use of enzymes in synthesis.

In 1933, Schoenheimer, who was medically qualified and had been working with Aschoff in the Pathology Institute in Freiburg, moved to Columbia University, New York, and was joined the next year by David Rittenberg. Rittenberg had just spent some time in Urey s laboratory in the Rockefeller Institute learning techniques for handling deuterium. Their first experiments concerned the metabolism of deuterated fatty acids in rats and the demonstration (see below) that 2H from heavy water was incorporated by the animals into fatty acids and cholesterol.

Kathryn E. Kelly received her doctorate in public health from Columbia University, with a concentration in environmental toxicology and the health effects of hazardous waste incineration. She also studied toxicology at the New York University Institute of Environmental Medicine. Dr. Kelly is the founder and president of three companies Delta Toxicology, Inc., Crystal Bay, Nevada Environmental Toxicology International, Seattle, Washington and Alden Analytical Laboratories, Seattle, Washington. She has broad experience in toxicology, waste combustion, environmental policy, and risk communication. 

Professor Nikolaos G. Argyropoulos was born in 1943. He received his B.Sc. in chemistry at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (1968) and his Ph.D. at the same university, under the supervision of Professor N. E. Alexandrou. He worked as a postdoctoral research associate in the laboratory of R. Breslow at Columbia University (1980-81), and after that he returned to the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki where he become assistant professor (1985) and associate professor (1991). Since then, he is a permanent faculty member of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. His research interests are focused on heterocyclic synthesis and the synthesis of carbohydrate mimics, especially aza sugar derivatives as possible bioactive compounds. He was author of the chapter l,4-(Oxa/thia)-2-azoles in CHEC-II(1996). He is also the author of four relevant chapters that appeared in Science of Synthesis (vol. 13) dealing with all possible heteroaromatic (oxa/thia)-azoles.
