Capecchi, Ph.D., wandered homeless through Trento, Italy, after the Nazis put his mother in a concentration camp. In May Capecchi, distinguished professor of human genetics and biology, co-chair of the U Department of Human Genetics, and an investigator for the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, will return to Trento under happier circumstances. He will receive a cash prize for winning the 2003 Pezcoller Foundation-AACR (American Association for Cancer Research) International Award for Cancer Research. But his travels will not stop in Italy. After receiving the award in Trento, Capecchi will go to Israel to accept the 2002/03 Wolf Prize in Medicine-Israel's top honor in medical research. He'll share the Wolf Prize with two other distinguished researchersOliver Smithies of the University of North Carolina and Ralph R. Brinster of the University of Pennsylvania. Capecchi and Smithies, working independently, developed techniques for targeted gene mutation in mammals, enabling researchers to create strains of mice with mutations in virtually any gene. Brinster developed a way to modify genes in mice embryo by injecting the eggs with RNA. Announcement of the awards had Capecchi poring over a map of Northern Italy this week.

Yuan Longping, 74, director of the China National Hybrid Rice Research and Development Center, is "one of the scientific giants in the history of modern agricultural research and has made a dramatic impact on worldwide food production. Under his leadership, and after a decade of cooperative research efforts, among hundreds of rice scientists from numerous research institutes and universities, rice yields were generally enhanced by 20 percent, and China rice production, by 50 percent. To help increase world food supply, he has shared his knowledge, techniques, and breeding materials with scientists worldwide," according to the Wolf Prize Jury in this field. ¡¡¡¡The agriculture prize was shared by Yuan Longping and Steven Tanksley, 50, of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, for innovative development of hybrid rice and discovery of the genetic basis of heterosis in this important food staple. Since 1978, five or six prizes have been awarded annually to outstanding scientists and artists.

Smithies was selected because of his "contribution to the development of gene targeting, enabling elucidation of gene function in mice," according to Yaron Gruder, director general of the Wolf Foundation, based in Israel. The UNC professor and two U.S. colleagues created techniques "for introducing and modifying individual genes with mouse eggs and embryos," the prize jury wrote. "Since the mouse genome is highly similar to that of humans, the laureates’ work has provided powerful tools for investigating human biology and its mis-regulation in human diseases," they said. "These methods have enabled the development of models for a wide variety of diseases including hypertension, degenerative neurological diseases and cancer."

NOTED COMPOSER PIERRE BOULEZ OF FRANCE AND CONDUCTOR RICCARDO MUTI OF ITALY WILL SHARE THE WOLF PRIZE IN MUSIC FOR THE YEAR 2000 Jerusalem Two outstanding figures in the world of music, Pierre Boulez and Riccardo Muti, will share the $100,000 Wolf Prize in the Arts for 2000, it was announced today. Maestro Pierre Boulez, 74, is cited as "one of the most creative personalities in the realm of music." The Wolf Prize jury stated that "he is simultaneously a great composer, an outstanding conductor, a philosopher of music and a distinguished teacher. Considered a prominent contemporary figure combining the creator and the investigator, he has gone a long way in the investigation of the acoustical limits of sound, as well as its influence on people." Boulez is the creator and director of the IRCAM (Institute de Recherche et de Coordination Acoustique/Musique) at the Pompidou Centre in Paris where investigators from the world over are intent on deciphering the codes that link music to human beings. Maestro Riccardo Muti, 58, is "one of the most outstanding conductors of our time" it was said. "His musical charisma brings excitement to concert halls and opera houses. His creative activities have found expression beyond the boundaries of the domain of music. Muti constitutes one of the most important links in the chain of development of the image of the conductor, whose interpretation of the masterpieces of symphonic music and opera enriches the contemporary world of music", it was stated.

Jean-Claude Chermann, director of the laboratory of retroviruses and associated diseases of the Institut Nationale de la Sante et de la Recherche Medicale (INSERM) in Marseilles, France; Luc Montagnier, a professor at the viral oncology unit of the Pasteur Institute, Paris; and Francoise Barre-Sin-oussi, head of the retrovirus biology laboratory at INSERM, have been named as recipients of the King Faisal International Prize for Medicine. The foundation cited these researchers for being "the first to discover and characterize the virus that is responsible for AIDS." Montagnier, the leader of the lab in which both Chermann and Barre-Sinoussi work, has been embroiled in controversy since 1984 with National Cancer Institute researcher Robert Gallo over who was the first to discover the HIV virus.

Mandelbrot, a fellow at the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights, N.Y., will be awarded the 1993 Wolf Prize in Physics by the Israeli-based Wolf Foundation on May 16. Since 1978, the Wolf Foundation has been granting $100,000 prizes for individual achievements in agriculture, chemistry, mathematics, medicine, physics, and the arts. This year, the prizes will be presented by Israeli President Chaim Herzog at the Knesset building in Jerusalem. "I never liked mathematics by itself. I didn't like its dryness or abstraction," Mandelbrot says. "So I spent all my life being a mathematician without being a member of the core mathematics community. I've always done things my own way, which is why all my work has been used by many different disciplines." In addition to gaining satisfaction from the cross-disciplinary utility of his work, Mandelbrot says, he is extremely pleased that fractals are easily understood by high school and college teachers.

Beachy and Womack Awarded Wolf Prize for Agriculture Beachy is a member of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) and is a recognized expert in plant virology and biotechnology of plants. Beachy pioneered the first method of protecting crops from viruses by incorporation of virus genes into the plant genome. His development of a virus-fighting gene built the base for other researchers to create their own forms of plant defenses. Womack, also a member of the NAS, launched the discipline of livestock genomics with his initial map of the bovine genome. According to the Wolf Foundation, Womack’s work with cows signifies "a whole new generation of scientists will use techniques provided by Womack to clone the genes affecting economically important traits in mammals." Five Wolf prizes are awarded annually to scientists and artists. Winners are chosen from such fields as agriculture, chemistry, mathematics, medicine, and physics. The prize will be presented May 13 in Israel.

@import url(../styles.css); 1999 Wolf Prize Awarded to Raymond U. Lemieux Department of Chemistry, University of Alberta Edmonton, Alberta, Canada The 1999 Wolf Prize in Chemistry will be conferred on Raymond U. Lemieux, Professor Emeritus, University of Alberta, Canada by the president of the State of Israel, Mr. Ezer Weizman, in a special ceremony, at the Knesset (parliament) on Sunday, May 2 nd The Prize Committee unanimously decided that the 1999 Wolf Prize in Chemistry would be awarded to Raymond U. Lemieux, 78, Professor Emeritus, University of Alberta, Canada, "for his fundamental and seminal contributions to the study and synthesis of oligosaccharides and to the elucidation of their role in molecular recognition in biological systems." The committee cited that:- Raymond U. Lemieux's seminal contributions to the chemistry of carbohydrates, stretching over close to half a century, have led to a transformation of the discipline; the study of which is now universally recognized as being of immense importance in chemistry and biology. Lemieux has had an exceptional ability to focus quickly and clearly on the basic questions, in an area whose critical biological significance he addressed before others, and to produce original conceptual frameworks and experimental tools to deal with them. This ability and his many achievements have provided the pillars upon which present-day oligosaccharide chemistry and biochemistry now rest.
