Perry,

 

Two weeks ago I visited schools in Phillips County, Arkansas (my home) and Coahoma County, Mississippi.  Both counties are in the Mississippi River Delta and are two of the poorest in the United States.  I share these details because of a great Harvard surprise I encountered while visiting Central High School in my hometown of Helena, Arkansas.

 

While making my admissions presentation I noticed a young Caucasian man in a school that is more than 95% African American who somehow seemed familiar to me.  When we approached each other we both said something like “I know you.”  He then introduced himself and it all became clear.  He is Charles J. McNamara ’07 from Grayling, Michigan who was the Latin Orator at the Harvard Commencement 2007!!!  Moreover, he is one of the students quoted in the current Rollo (Harvard application booklet, Page! 43) about the significant role financial aid played in his matriculation at Harvard.

 

Charlie serves in the Teach-for America program at Central High School and I was so moved by the encounter that I wept when I drove away in my rental car.  Lord knows they need him and his TFA colleagues in Helena because the school system is in such dire straits that the State has taken control of it.

 

His is a powerful and inspirational story and makes "it all seem worthwhile."

Best regards,

David

Of the lovely Bar Marmont, LA.Com coos, "Next door to the historic Chateau Marmont hotel, this bar is one of the top choices for the young Industry set when it's time to put away-or at least put down-their cell phones and start drinking. It's chic, subdued and the waitstaff couldn't be more beautiful...Bar Marmont looks like a sultan's rumpus room, complete with butterflies on the ceiling. The crowd is stylish and beautiful, so don't show up in a sweatshirt and torn jeans-unless you are one of the many Hollywood starlets who hang out on the patio, in which case you can wear whatever you want."

static survival of the past, nor as a syncretic development, but as a
distinct spirituality, with transformed continuities. Maya spirituality
is unique in is tie to sacred geography, to the Mesoamerican calendar,
and to ritual practice. Her work illuminates how the 260-day Maya
calendar continues to be the "heart of the wisdom of the Maya people,"
and the underlying order which form Maya psychology and discernment. Her
position as an ethnographer is unique to this work as through
friendship, marriage and family ties, she has been brought into the Maya

Commercializing technology from his MIT lab - Robert Langer 560 issued or pending patents worldwide

MIT Entrepreneurial Notice - September 11, 2007

 

 

Hello all,

 

Welcome to a new academic year of the Entrepreneurs Club.  We will kick off the semester tonight, Tuesday, 9/11/07, at 6 pm in 56-114  with a visit from Professor Robert Langer.  Professor Langer is one of MIT's most prolific scientist/entrepreneurs, and will speak about his experience commercializing technology from his lab.  His bio is copied below.

 

I hope to see many of you there tonight for what promises to be a great talk.

 

-Manny

 

============

 

Robert Langer is one of 13 Institute Professors (the highest honor awarded to a faculty member) at MIT.  Dr. Langer has written over 940 articles.  He also has more than 560 issued or pending patents worldwide, one of which was cited as the outstanding patent in Massachusetts in 1988 and one of 20 outstanding patents in the United States.

 

Dr. Langer's patents have been licensed or sublicensed to over 180 pharmaceutical, chemical, biotechnology and medical device companies; a number of these companies were launched on the basis of these patent licenses.   He served as a member of the United States Food and Drug Administration's SCIENCE Board, the FDA's highest advisory board, from 1995 -- 2002 and as Chairman from 1999-2002.

 

His work is at the interface of biotechnology and materials science. A major focus is the study and development of polymers to deliver drugs, particularly genetically engineered proteins, DNA and RNAi, continuously at controlled rates for prolonged periods of time. Work is in progress in the following areas:

•	Investigating the mechanism of release from polymeric delivery systems with concomitant microstructural analysis and mathematical modeling.
•	Studying applications of these systems including the development of effective long-term delivery systems for insulin, anti-cancer drugs, growth factors, gene therapy agents and vaccines.
•	Developing controlled release systems that can be magnetically, ultrasonically, or enzymatically triggered to increase release rates.
•	Synthesizing new biodegradable polymeric delivery systems which will ultimately be absorbed by the body.
•	Creating new approaches for delivering drugs such as proteins and genes across complex barriers in the body such as the blood-brain barrier, the intestine, the lung and the skin.
•	Researching new ways to create tissue and organs including creating new polymer systems for tissue engineering.
•	Stem cell research including controlling growth and differentiation.
•	Creating new biomaterials with shape memory or surface switching properties.
•	Angiogenesis inhibition

Dr. Langer has received nearly 150 major awards.  In 2007, he received the 2006 United States National Medal of Science. In 2002, he received the Charles Stark Draper Prize, considered the equivalent of the Nobel Prize for engineers and the world's most prestigious engineering prize, from the National Academy of Engineering. He is also the only engineer to receive the Gairdner Foundation International Award ; 68 recipients of this award have subsequently received a Nobel Prize. Among numerous other awards Langer has received are the Dickson Prize for Science (2002), Heinz Award for Technology, Economy and Employment (2003), the Harvey Prize (2003), the John Fritz Award (2003) (given previously to inventors such as Thomas Edison and Orville Wright), the General Motors Kettering Prize for Cancer Research (2004), the Dan David Prize in Materials Science (2005) and the Albany Medical Center Prize in Medicine and Biomedical Research (2005), the largest prize in the U.S. for medical research.  In 2006, he was inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame.   In 1998, he received the Lemelson-MIT prize, the world's largest prize for invention for being "one of history's most prolific inventors in medicine."  In 1989 Dr. Langer was elected to the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences, and in 1992 he was elected to both the National Academy of Engineering and to the National Academy of Sciences.  He is one of very few people ever elected to all three United States National Academies and the youngest in history (at age 43) to ever receive this distinction. 

Forbes Magazine (1999) and Bio World (1990) have named Langer as one of the 25 most important individuals in biotechnology in the world.  Discover Magazine (2002) named him as one of the 20 most important people in this area.  Forbes Magazine (2002) selected Langer as one of the 15 innovators world wide who will reinvent our future.  Time Magazine and CNN (2001) named Langer as one of the 100 most important people in America and one of the 18 top people in science or medicine in America. Parade Magazine (2004) selected Langer as one of 6 "Heroes whose research may save your life."  He has served, at various times, on 15 boards of directors and 30 Scientific Advisory Boards of such companies as Wyeth, Alkermes, Mitsubishi Pharmaceuticals , Warner-Lambert, and Momenta Pharmaceuticals.  Dr. Langer has received honorary doctorates from Yale University, the ETH (Switzerland) , the Technion (Israel), the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (Israel) , the Universite Catholique de Louvain (Belgium), the University of Liverpool (England) , the University of Nottingham (England), Albany Medical College, the Pennsylvania State University , Northwestern University and Uppsala University (Sweden).  He received his Bachelor's Degree from Cornell University in 1970 and his Sc.D. from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1974, both in Chemical Engineering.

Oprah Hosts Obama in Star-Studded Event

By ALLISON HOFFMAN

MONTECITO, Calif. (AP) - Oprah Winfrey rolled out the red carpet
Saturday for Barack Obama at a gala fund raiser attended by high-wattage
stars that was expected to raise $3 million for the Democratic
presidential candidate.

The most powerful woman in show business celebrated her favorite
candidate with 1,500 guests at her palatial estate in this coastal
enclave south of Santa Barbara. Tickets to the sold-out private event
went for $2,300 apiece, keeping them within campaign finance limits.

Stevie Wonder performed for guests, who included Sidney Poitier, Forest
Whitaker, Chris Rock, Cindy Crawford,Jimmy Connors, Linda Evans, Dennis
Haysbert and many others. Will Smith, Jamie Foxx and Halle Berry also
were expected, though it was unclear if they were in attendance. The
media were barred from the fund raiser.

Visitors were bused to Winfrey's secluded home from an equestrian center
about 10 miles away. A solid line of limousines, BMWs, Bentleys and a
few hybrid Priuses disgorged well-dressed guests. Some sported stiletto
heels despite official instructions to wear flat shoes for walking on
Winfrey's meadow.

Visitors were subjected to strict security procedures and relieved of
cameras and recording devices. Instructions sent to guests noted that
Winfrey and Obama would not be accepting gifts.

Earlier in the day, Obama made a quick, lunchtime stop to speak to a
crowd of about 1,000 eager supporters who gathered on a hillside
overlooking the Pacific at Santa Barbara City College. It was his only
public appearance of the day.

Obama, wearing his usual white shirt open at the collar and sleeves
rolled up,shook his way down a line of outstretched hands as the song
"Ain't No Stopping Us Now" blared from speakers.

He spoke for about 20 minutes, hitting his core themes of optimism and
accountability.

"What's called for is a level of responsibility and seriousness that we
haven't seen in a very long time," he told the cheering crowd, which
included college students in short sun dresses and big sunglasses and
older couples in peace symbols.

A woman standing in front of the stage appeared to faint as Obama spoke
about Iraq. The candidate paused and asked the crowd to make way for
firefighters.

One supporter shouted, "You're a good man," leaving Obama momentarily at
a loss for words.

"Well, I'm not the only one stopping to help her," he said, sounding
almost embarrassed.

He talked briefly about his last trip to California in August, when he
spent a morning helping a home health care worker clean a house,wringing
out mops and making breakfast through a program sponsored by SEIU, the
Service Employees International Union.

"Listening to her talk about the hardships of her life, talking about
her struggles without a trace of self-pity ... I thought, there is the
essence of what America is about, this generosity of spirit," Obama
said.

Then it was off to a private luncheon and on to Winfrey's cocktail-hour
shindig, where a different brand of very American generosity would be on
display.

Obama already enjoys the support of Hollywood moguls like David Geffen
and Jeffrey Katzenberg, and Winfrey's fund raiser is another chance for
him to tap California, which was his top donor state from April through
June with a total take of $4.2 million.

Obama has raised more than $58 million for his White House bid. Forbes
magazine estimates that Winfrey, the Chicago-based talk-show host, is
worth about $1.5 billion.

Winfrey is a well-known fan of Obama, calling him "my favorite guy" and
"my choice" on CNN's "Larry King Live" last year before he announced he
would run for president.
