Association of American Universities Centennial Meeting University of Chicago October 16, 2000 About the AAU Centennial Celebration The AAU centennial celebration began in April, 2000 and ended in April, 2001. It was centered around three meetings of the AAU presidents and chancellors: the April 16-18, 2000, meeting in Washington, D.C.; the October 15-17, 2000, meeting hosted by the University of Chicago; and the April 22-24, 2001, meeting in Washington, D.C., that included the leaders of major research universities from around the world. About the University of Chicago Centennial Meeting Since AAU was founded at the University of Chicago in the year 1900, it seemed most appropriate that the October 2000 centennial meeting should explore the future of research and scholarship within universities. Leading scholars were asked to discuss recent advances in the core disciplines, and then provide their views on how research and scholarship would evolve in the coming decades. A speaker's remarks are available here only if his or her name is underlined. Other presentations will be made available as part of the published meeting proceedings.

CECH Taking The Helm At Howard Hughes Medical Institute Rebecca L. Rawls [Photo by Paul Fetters] A few minutes after the scheduled hour, Thomas R. Cech comes quickly out of his well-appointed office in the handsome complex of buildings in Chevy Chase, Md., that is the headquarters of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) . Gracious and informal, Cech nevertheless gives the impression of a busy man. No doubt he is. Since last January, when he became president of HHMI, the 52-year-old chemist has been jetting back and forth roughly every other week between this post and the University of Colorado , Boulder, where he continues to head his world-renowned biochemistry laboratory.

Hall of Alumni Wurlitzer Glenn Miller Thomas Cech ... Derbur Atler Thomas Cech Distinguished Professor and Investigator Department of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology University of Colorado, Boulder Dr. Thomas R. Cech of the University of Colorado received the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1989 for his research in establishing a link between RNA and the evolutionary chain. His discoveries have shed new light on the mystery of the beginning of life and guided genetic engineers in their search for life-saving cures in the battle against cancer. Prior to Cech's RNA breakthroughs in the early 1980s, scientists believed DNA served as the warehouse of genetic information, that RNA decoded the information and that proteins used the information to create physical attributes such as skin, hair and eyes. These proteins were thought to be the only catalysts in determining cell development. Cech's research established that RNA, like a protein, can act as a catalyst in cellular processes.

Cech, Ph.D. Investigator, Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry University of Colorado at Boulder As a student at Grinnell College, I wanted to be a physical chemist. By the time I entered graduate school at UC Berkeley, however, I was very uncertain. Research in gas-phase physical chemistry depended on complex, custom-built machines, and a long time elapsed between designing an experiment and seeing the results. These features didn't match my impatient temperament. Fortunately, I met Professor John Hearst, a physical chemist bursting with excitement about unraveling chromosome structure and function. His enthusiasm was infectious, and as I took up my graduate research, I found myself spending more and more time catching up on molecular biology.

Cech, Thomas Robert (b. Dec. 8, 1947, Chicago, Ill., U.S.), American biochemist and molecular biologist who, with Sidney Altman , was awarded the 1989 Nobel Prize for Chemistry for their discoveries concerning RNA (ribonucleic acid). Cech attended Grinnell College in Grinnell, Iowa (B.A., 1970), and the University of California at Berkeley (Ph.D., 1975, in chemistry). After serving as a National Cancer Institute fellow at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (1975-77), he joined the Department of Chemistry at the University of Colorado in 1978, becoming a full professor in 1983. Concurrently he was an investigator for the National Institutes of Health from 1978 and for the Howard Hughes Medical Institute from 1988. Cech and Altman received a Nobel Prize for their independent discoveries that RNA, traditionally considered to be only a passive messenger of genetic information, can also take on an enzymatic role in which it catalyzes, or facilitates, intracellular chemical reactions essential to life. Before their discoveries, enzymatic activity had been attributed exclusively to proteins. Cech was the first person to show that an RNA molecule could catalyze a chemical reaction, and he published his findings in 1982. Altman, whose earlier research had pointed strongly to such a conclusion, conclusively demonstrated such enzymatic activity by an RNA molecule in 1983.
