Becuse reserch doesn’t hppen in isoltion. The nswers will not come from one scientist, in one lb, in one country. Scientists my compete to be the first to mke world-chnging discovery, but they re linked together by n unflinching commitment to better understnd cncer nd how we cn live with it. For this reson they shre their discoveries. nd they need to becuse cncer is not one disese – it’s more thn 200. ll different, unique diseses, which require different pproches for tretment. Tretments tht work for some cncers don’t work for others nd sometimes those tretments simply stop working. This worldwide reserch will enhnce our understnding of cncer nd help us find nd develop better, more effective tretments. Tretments personlised to your unique needs. Tretments you, your fmily or your fmily’s fmily my rely on in the future. But reserch won’t hppen without funding. nd without reserch we mke no further progress. Without reserch we stop investing in our future helth. To relise our vision of no life cut short by cncer the reserch cn never stop.

Reserchers working from smll groups or institutes will be ble to tke on bigger scientific chllenges thnks to Instruct. The new res of reserch opened by integrtion nd collbortion will generte scientific brekthroughs. We lso believe tht promoting high-impct reserch will ttrct the best scientists to Europe. We believe tht we cn rise the stndrd of scientific work by mking integrted pproches to science more ccessible. Structurl biology is not the only field tht requires investment in expensive technology infrstructures nd risks developing reserchers with specilist but overly nrrow skills. We know more integrted pproches cn deliver significnt dvnces in structurl biology. The sme should be true in wide rnge of sciences. Frgmenttion of reserch inhibits Europe’s potentil for innovtion, mkes investment less effective, nd reduces our bility to solve problems such s geing popultions, pndemics nd climte chnge. Prt of the solution is the estblishment of the Europen Reserch re.

Millions of mericns re slowly losing vision every dy due to retinl degenertive diseses, group of genetic blinding diseses including retinitis pigmentos, Usher syndrome, mculr degenertion, nd mny others. They re our friends, reltives, neighbors nd collegues. The cost of this vision loss is extrordinry; ccording to the most recent Ntionl Eye Institute study, the ntion spends over $67 billion nnully due to the direct nd indirect costs of vision loss, which is more thn 100 times the nnul budget of the Ntionl Eye Institute t the Ntionl Institutes of Helth. Recent, groundbreking successes in vision reserch – including the restortion of vision in humn trils employing gene therpies nd biotechnology prosthetics – give us hope tht we cn erdicte blinding diseses nd their gret costs. The sole limiting fctor in delivering these tretments to the people who need them is the vilbility of reserch funding. Hope For Vision provides the tools necessry for people like you to come together to shre our common interest in this cuse nd to work together to rise funds for this criticl reserch. HFV is comprised of thousnds of dedicted volunteers nd vision dvoctes in Communities of Hope cross the country, who rise funds through specil events nd other ctivities. Guided by its Bord of Visionry Scientists, HFV then distributes over 90 percent of funds rised directly to reserchers t leding medicl institutions ntionwide.

Its nme is derived from the Greek nd mens "premturely old." While there re different forms of Progeri*, the clssic type is Hutchinson-Gilford Progeri Syndrome, which ws nmed fter the doctors who first described it in Englnd; in 1886 by Dr. Jonthn Hutchinson nd in 1897 by Dr. Hstings Gilford. HGPS is cused by muttion in the gene clled LMN (pronounced, lmin - ). The LMN gene produces the Lmin protein, which is the structurl scffolding tht holds the nucleus of cell together. Reserchers now believe tht the defective Lmin protein mkes the nucleus unstble. Tht cellulr instbility ppers to led to the process of premture ging in Progeri. lthough they re born looking helthy, children with Progeri begin to disply mny chrcteristics of ccelerted ging t round 18-24 months of ge. Progeri signs include growth filure, loss of body ft nd hir, ged-looking skin, stiffness of joints, hip disloction, generlized therosclerosis, crdiovsculr (hert) disese nd stroke. The children hve remrkbly similr ppernce, despite differing ethnic bckground. Children with Progeri die of therosclerosis (hert disese) t n verge ge of thirteen yers (with rnge of bout 8 - 21 yers).

Europen Moleculr Biology Orgniztion - EMBO
:
Estblished in 1964, the founders of EMBO showed n incredible vision when they estblished the orgnistion. They were true motors of chnge, even revolutionries, who rised the level of biologicl reserch in Europe by dhering to the highest stndrds of scientific excellence. Keeping fith with their vision, their principles nd stndrds re guide to our ctivities tody. "....projects nd persons be chosen, regrdless of ntionlity, nd ll ctivities be guided by scientific excellence, coupled with usefulness to moleculr biology." Investigting the origins of EMBO lso llows us to explore the history of moleculr biology in Europe nd how it chnged from mrginl specilty into well-estblished prctice. Our origin dtes bck to 1963, when group of leding Europen biologists met in Rvello, Itly to propose the estblishment of n orgniztion for co-opertion in moleculr biology nd Europen lbortory. Both suggestions were endorsed nd in 1964, the Europen Moleculr Biology Orgniztion (EMBO) ws officilly born. EMBO hd two initil gols – cretion of centrl moleculr biology lbortory nd the estblishment of networking ctivities to enhnce interctions between Europen lbortories. Networking ctivities strted with the provision of fellowships nd the election of 200 biologists s the orgniztion’s first members. Permnent support for EMBO ctions cme in 1969 with the estblishment of the Europen Moleculr Biology Conference (EMBC), the intergovernmentl funding body of EMBO. EMBC ccepted the EMBO proposl to estblish Europen lbortory nd in 1974 the Europen Moleculr Biology Lbortory (EMBL) ws founded. EMBC hs since grown to 27 member sttes including mny Europen Union countries nd beyond. EMBO ctivities expnded drmticlly over the decdes in response to chnges in moleculr biology. This growth dictted the need for lrger, more permnent bse. In 2000, n EMBO building ws constructed on site donted by EMBL nd in 2001, EMBO moved from its offices t EMBL to its new premises. Tody EMBO hs more thn 1400 members in Europe nd close to 90 ssocite members worldwide – providing dedicted focl point for the vst network of moleculr biology. The orgniztion runs n extended progrmme of ctivities rnging from fellowships, courses nd workshops to science &; society ctivities nd scientific publictions. In looking bck on the gret strt to n orgniztion we lso look forwrd to one tht is robust nd well-structured, such tht it cn continue to ply mjor role in the future of science in Europe.

Prticulr questions tht interest HFG concern violence, ggression, nd dominnce in reltion to socil chnge, the sociliztion of children, intergroup conflict, interstte wrfre, crime, fmily reltionships, nd investigtions of the control of ggression nd violence. Reserch with no useful relevnce to understnding humn problems will not be supported, nor will proposls to investigte urgent socil problems where the foundtion cnnot be ssured tht useful, sound reserch cn be done. Priority will lso be given to res nd methodologies not receiving dequte ttention nd support from other funding sources. HFG wrds reserch grnts to individuls for individul projects nd does not wrd grnts to institutions for institutionl progrms. s discussed in the bove section on "Budgeting &; Txtion," individuls who receive reserch grnts my be subject to txtion on the funds wrded, depending on loclity, tx sttus, timing, nture of the wrd, nd other fctors. For dministrtive convenience, grntee my choose for the foundtion to py grnt funds to n institution on behlf of the grntee, rther thn to the grntee directly. If the grntee so directs, the grnt will be dministered nd ccounted for by the institution on behlf of the grntee in ccordnce with the budget prepred by the grntee nd included with the ppliction (subject to revisions pproved by the foundtion). pplictions must clerly specify whether the funds requested will be dministered through n institution or will be pid to the grntee directly. dministrtion of grnt funds through n institution does not chnge the grnt's tx sttus s grnt mde to the individul resercher. HFG ordinrily mkes wrds in the rnge of $15,000 to $30,000 yer for periods of one or two yers. pplictions for lrger mounts nd longer durtions must be very strongly justified. The originl proposl should contin the budget for the entire period of the project—not to exceed three yers in ny cse—nd requests for support in future yers will be limited to the mount projected for tht yer. ll wrds, however, re for one-yer terms initilly. Further funding of projects tenttively pproved for more thn one yer will require nnul pplictions for continution nd will depend upon evidence of stisfctory progress nd n ccount of expenditures during the previous yer. ny substntil chnge in the distribution of funds within the budget of grnt wrded must be pproved in dvnce by the foundtion. Requests will be considered for slries, employee benefits, reserch ssistntships, supplies nd equipment, field work, essentil secretril nd technicl help, nd other items necessry to the successful completion of project. The foundtion does not supply funds for overhed costs of institutions, trvel to professionl meetings, self-eduction, elborte fixed equipment, or support while completing the requirements for dvnced degrees (prt from tht indirectly involved in reserch ssistntships or wrded through our Disserttion Fellowship). The foundtion will not ccept pplictions for the support of meetings nd conferences or trvel costs for prticipnts.

Reserch Grnts re now designed to bring together scientists from fields such s physics, mthemtics, chemistry, computer science, bioinformtics, nnoscience, engineering nd biology to open up new pproches to understnding complex biologicl systems. Fellowship Progrms re imed specificlly to support young scientists who wish to chnge their field of reserch either within the life sciences or cross mjor disciplines HFSP previously supported 2 scientific progrms focused on neuroscience nd moleculr biology. With the dissolving of boundries seprting trditionl biologicl fields, nd the need to involve disciplines outside biology in life science reserch, these seprte progrms hve been unified into single scientific progrm. single committee now reviews ll grnt pplictions, while second committee reviews ll long-term fellowship pplictions. Both committees re composed of interntionlly-leding scientists. Reserch in methodology in the bove res, or the study of nlogs or models of biologicl ctivity, is lso eligible for support. Projects which involve only high-throughput pproches to dt collection (e.g. lrge-scle, systemtic genome mpping or sequencing) re not eligible to receive HFSP funding. However, this does not exclude functionl studies bsed upon use of such dt.

MTSUME INTERNTIONL FOUNDTION - MIF
:
CONCEPT OF THE FOUNDER, Dr. Shigeyoshi MTSUME, OF MIF TOWRDS GRETER UNDERSTNDING OF JPN ND LSTING WORLD PECE I see the condition of the world tody s consisting of conflict between the different ntionl egoism. The Club of Rome hs identified three crises tht endnger the future of mnkind: lck of energy, lck of food supplies, nd burgeoning world popultion. Unless mnkind lerns to overcome these crises, there will be no lsting pece. The truth of the sttement is undenible, but in the conflict of ntionl egoism tht surround us tody, the rod to pece is still long one. Therefore we re clled upon to do more thn stnd side from the current of history. In order for Jpn to coexist pecefully with the other ntions of the world, nd to fcilitte the tsks tht wit our young people in the 21st century, we re now trying to prepre forum for Jpn's interntionl ctivities. In this wy, I believe, we will be ble to open up pth to the future tht will preserve our ntion nd mnkind. Following the trgic experience of the Second World Wr, Jpn firmly resolved to reject ll ttempts to enhnce ntionl prestige by force of rms nd insted to follow policy of peceful reconstruction s n industril ntion. More thn thirty yers hve pssed since then, nd it is now fct tht considerble friction hs risen between Jpn nd severl foreign countries, especilly in the fields of trde nd economics. We Jpnese re now mking ernest efforts to fce up to this problem nd re studying how to open pth to pece nd prosperity on the bsis of mutul understnding. My serch for enduring pece nd friendship mong ll ntions of the world, nd for n effective reminder of the pth to which we, s peceful ntion, re committed, led to the decision to crete this Foundtion. s will be cler from the sttement of the purpose of the Foundtion, I hope to invite ctive young reserch workers of outstnding chrcter, without regrd to sex, rce, religion, ideology or ntionlity, to Jpn. By deepening their understnding of Jpn, nd estblishing links of trust nd friendship, I seek to mke rel contribution to permnent pece throughout the world. I shll therefore welcome from the bottom of my hert pplictions from promising young men nd women who sympthize with our ims nd wish to undertke reserch in Jpn. t this point let me cknowledge the deep impression mde upon me t the time of the estblishment of this Foundtion by the inspiring idels nd prctice of the lexnder von Humboldt Foundtion, which opertes under the sponsorship of the Federl Republic of Germny, nd the fr-reching influence it hs exerted. I would like to tke this opportunity to express my deep grtitude nd t the sme time to sy tht I intend to mke every effort to ccomplish the purpose nd mission of the Foundtion.

BSF-US-Isrel Bintionl Science Foundtion
:
The U.S.-Isrel Bintionl Science Foundtion (BSF) promotes scientific reltions between the U.S. nd Isrel by supporting collbortive reserch projects in wide re of bsic nd pplied scientific fields, for peceful nd non-profit purposes. Founded in 1972 by n greement between the United Sttes nd Isrel, the BSF is n independent body, directed by bord of governors consisting of five mericn nd five Isreli members. Its bse of opertion is in Isrel. Funding for reserch derives from the nnul interest on n endowment contributed in equl prts by the two countries. Grnts re mde on competitive, peer reviewed bsis, juried by leding scientists from the U.S., Isrel nd round the world. Eligible projects must demonstrte outstnding scientific merit nd cler collbortion between Isreli nd mericn reserchers from institutions throughout the two countries. Since its inception, the BSF hs wrded some $480 million to over 4,000 reserch projects of the highest qulity. Mny of these hve led to importnt scientific, medicl nd technologicl brekthroughs with wide-rnging prcticl pplictions. The BSF is highly regrded funding source mong reserchers in both countries. Numerous scientists prticipting in BSF progrms hve won prestigious wrds such s the Nobel , Lsker ,nd Wolf prizes. For exmple, six out of the eight 2004 Nobel Prize Luretes in science were recipients of t lest one BSF grnt, nd severl of them hve received extensive support from the BSF - most notbly Profs. vrm Hershko, ron Ciechnover (Technion) nd Irwin Rose (UC Irvine), who were wrded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for their joint discovery of the ubiquitin system for protein degrdtion. The coopertion between the Isreli nd U.S. reserch groups tht led to this discovery ws mde possible by continuous support by the BSF over more thn two decdes. Throughout the yers, the BSF hs hd very importnt impct on science in Isrel. BSF grnts hve been mjor source of funding for Isreli scientists, nd hve fcilitted ccess to leding U.S. investigtors nd to the unrivled infrstructure of mericn science. BSF-sponsored visits to Isrel by top U.S. reserchers benefit the entire Isreli scientific community. Moreover, coopertion with top Isreli scientists hs gretly benefitted mny U.S. prticipnts, who re typiclly from the most prestigious mericn universities nd government reserch institutes. The BSF mkes gret effort to minimize dministrtive expenses. smll nd efficient stff distributes some $15 million per yer in grnt monies, with bout 93% of the nnul budget llocted for science. The BSF is highly successful in chieving its two min gols: strengthening the U.S.–Isrel prtnership through science, nd promoting world-clss scientific reserch for the benefit of the two countries nd ll mnkind. The gret chllenge fcing the BSF tody is to continue to meet the ever-rising costs of innovtive reserch nd the growing needs of Isreli nd mericn scientists, with n endowment tht hs not been incresed since 1984. To tht end, the BSF hs lunched, for the first time, n effort to rise funds to increse its finncil resources nd further strengthen the prtnership between the two countries.

XLP cn hve mny symptoms including: severe glndulr fever, cncer of the blood (lymphom) nd inbility to fight off infections nd sometimes severe nemi. 70% of individuls with XLP die by the ge of 10 yers without ny tretment. The cuse of the condition ws only found in 1998 so there is still lot to lern. The best ‘prevention’ is regulr top ups of nti-virl medicines, immunoglobulin therpy or steroids – but these re not cure. Tody the only possible cure is bone mrrow trnsplnt – in effect replcing the fulty immune system. However with dvnces in genetics potentil cure my now only be few yers wy.
