CAMPUS
A Beautiful Mind garnered best
picture and best screenplay at the Academy Awards. Ron Howard won
for best director and Jennifer Connelly for best supporting actress.
John Nash *50 and his wife, Alicia, attended the ceremony.
Princeton hydrologist Ignacio Rodriguez-Iturbe
has been selected to receive the Stockholm Water Prize, a $150,000
award known informally as the "Nobel Prize of water."
King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden will present the award on behalf
of the Stockholm Water Foundation at a ceremony in the Stockholm
City Hall on August 15. The Stockholm Water Foundation, which has
given the award annually since 1991, selected Rodriguez-Iturbe for
his many contributions to the basic understanding of how water cycles
between the oceans, the atmosphere and the continents. His work
has ranged from discovering principles that govern the shape of
all river basins to explaining the forces that drive cycles of floods
and droughts.
More than 300 scientists from around the world
gathered at a local conference center March 15-16 to honor Princeton
physicist John Wheeler, who has been an important force in
20th-century physics and who is approaching his 91st birthday. The
conference, called "Science and Ultimate Reality," celebrated
Wheelers drive to address big, overarching questions in physics,
which often begin to merge with philosophical questions about the
origin of matter, information and the universe. Wheeler joined the
Princeton faculty in 1938 and transferred to emeritus status in
1976.
Lisa Beamer, whose husband, Todd, uttered
"Lets roll," moments before United Flight 93 crashed
into a Pennsylvania field on September 11, spoke on campus March
26. She spoke about his faith in God and hers.
President Tilghman spoke about the battle
of the sexes in her lecture on "Genomic Imprinting: A Genetic
Arms Race," at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study on
March 18. Tilghman described "an arms race where the weapons
in the race are genes, where the protagonists are parents, and where
the battlefield is the placenta and the uterus," reported Harvards
Gazette.
Professor of History Harold James served
on a nine-member panel of international historians that looked at
Switzerlands role in World War II. After a five-year study,
the panel concluded that Switzerlands refugee policy "turned
back thousands to near-certain death," and the country excessively
cooperated with Nazi Germany, and "failed to return wealth
to its rightful owners" after the war, reported the New
York Times.
Princeton graduate students are giving presentations
on the topics they are studying to children in local schools as
part of a new program called "Scholars in the Schools."
Kevin Forrest, who is pursuing a Ph.D. in molecular biology, recently
showed fifth-graders at West Windsor-Plainsboro Upper Elementary
School how to see DNA in a test tube.
An interdisciplinary journey of inquiry into
"Women and Religious Change in the African Diaspora" will
take place over the next three years through a project at Princetons
Center for the Study of Religion. The project will attempt to focus
long overdue attention on questions of race and gender in the traditional
study of religion. Marie Griffith, associate director of the center,
said the spotlight will be on religious communities in the African
diaspora of North and South America and the Caribbean, where increased
ethnic and racial blending provides exciting examples of how belief
and practice change over time and across populations, and how practitioners
especially women navigate and frequently drive those
changes. The project will focus especially on the ways in which
people of African descent have influenced and reshaped Christianity
and Islam, historically and in the present.
Saeed Tavazoie, assistant professor of
molecular biology, has received an early-career research grant worth
$1 million from the National Science Foundation. The five-year grant
will fund research aimed at using the detailed information obtained
from genome projects to build large-scale maps of how the many parts
of a cell work together.
The Alfred Sloan Foundation has awarded unrestricted research
grants to three Princeton faculty members. Computer scientist Amit
Sahai, economist Robert Shimer and chemist Suzanne
Walker each have been named Sloan Foundation research fellows
and will receive $40,000 in funding over two years.
Melissa Miller, a graduate student in
molecular biology, has been awarded a 2002 Harold Weintraub Graduate
Student Award from the Basic Sciences Division of the Fred Hutchinson
Cancer Research Center in Seattle. Miller, who works in the lab
of Associate Professor Bonnie Bassler and is also the recipient
of the Porter Ogden Jacobus Fellowship, will participate in a scientific
symposium in May in Seattle.
