Funding for this project from the National Environmental Research Council to Angela E. Newton in 2003 and from the Swedish Research Council (VR-2003-2541) to Niklas Wikstrom is gratefully... 

Much of the denial of funding in the UK, for example, is justified explicitly on the basis that funding agencies like the National Environmental Research Council are concerned with support for hypothesis-driven science only (see House of Lords, 2002). Like it or not, as E.O. Wilson (2003) has noted ...

Ronald E. Hester is Professor of Chemistry in the University of York. He was for short periods a research fellow in Cambridge and an assistant professor at Cornell before being appointed to a lectureship in chemistry in York in 1965. He has been a full professor in York since 1983. His more than 300 publications are mainly in the area of vibrational spectroscopy, latterly focusing on time-resolved studies of photoreaction intermediates and on biomolecular systems in solution. He is active in environmental chemistry and is a founder member and former chairman of the Environment Group of the Royal Society of Chemistry and editor of Industry and the Environment in Perspective (RSC, 1983) and Understanding Our Environment (RSC, 1986). As a member of the Council of the UK Science and Engineering Research Council and several of its sub-committees, panels and boards, he has been heavily involved in national science policy and administration. He was, from 1991-93, a member of the UK Department of the Environment Advisory Committee on Hazardous Substances and is currently a member of the Publications and Information Board of the Royal Society of Chemistry.
