LBL Currents -- May 6, 1994

LBL's Kim, Klinman elected to National Academy of Sciences

By Lynn Yarris, LCYarris@lbl.gov

Two LBL researchers, Sung-Hou Kim, director of the Structural Biology Division, and chemist Judith Klinman of Structural Biology were among the 60 new members elected to the National Academy of Sciences this year. Both Kim and Klinman are professors in the Chemistry Department at UC Berkeley.

Election to membership in the National Academy of Sciences is considered to be one of the highest honors that can be accorded a scientist or engineer. This year's additions bring the total active membership to 1,710. There are also now 300 foreign NAS associates with the addition of 15 new members from 10 different countries.

Kim, 56, has been internationally acclaimed for his pioneering use of x-ray crystallography to identify critical structures in cancer-related and other biologically important proteins. Born in Taegu, Korea, he became a U.S. citizen in 1973 at the age of 35. He earned his Ph.D. in physical chemistry from the University of Pittsburgh in 1966, and served short stints with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Duke University before joining the UC Berkeley faculty in 1978. He joined LBL a year later.

A former Guggenheim and Fulbright Fellow and a UCB Miller Research Professor, Kim has garnered more than a dozen international awards, including the E.O. Lawrence Award in 1987. Earlier this year, he was also elected as a Fellow in the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

Klinman, 53, is highly regarded for her research into the chemical changes that take place when an enzyme catalyzes a reaction. Like Kim, she came to Berkeley in 1978, and she, too, has won numerous awards. She was a Guggenheim Fellow and Miller Research Professor, and has been elected a Fellow in the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

She earned her Ph.D. in organic chemistry from the University of Pennsylvania in 1966, and spent several years with the Institute for Cancer Research in Philadelphia, the city in which she was born.

Women in Science & Engineering Seminar

Zuzanna Liliental-Weber of the Center for Advanced Materials in the Materials Science Division will give the next presentation in the LBL Women in Science and Engineering Seminar Series, scheduled for 12:10 p.m. on Monday, May 9, in Bldg. 70A-3377. She will discuss "Applications of Electron Microscopy in Materials Science." Her work focuses on the use of high resolution and analytical electron microscopy of thin films and interfaces to understand the electrical and optical properties of semiconductor materials, and the problem of stable and reliable metalization of semiconductor devices.

Refreshments will be served at noon. All employees are invited to attend.

Daughters to Work Day a big hit at LBL

More than 150 daughters and several sons descended on LBL on Thursday, April 28, to see their parents at work and to learn about their own career options. The visit was held in conjunction with the nationwide "Take Our Daughters to Work Day" event.

Marva Wilkins of the Center for Science and Engineering Education coordinated the program, with help from Deputy Director Pier Oddone's office. The day included presentations by women employees, tours of various Lab facilities, and lunch at the LBL cafeteria.

Speakers at the morning's introductory session in the Bldg. 66 auditorium represented the diversity of work that goes on at LBL. Judith Campisi, a molecular biologist in the Life Sciences Division, spoke about the exciting life of a genetics researcher. Mary Worth, division administrator for Life Sciences, talked about how she has juggled school and a career while at LBL. Site planner Laura Chen spoke about how she has been able to combine her interests in math and art in a career in environmental design. LBL carpenter Julie Tsiva talked about how much she enjoys working in a field where women are few.

The tour of the Lab included visits to the Advanced Light Source, Fire Department, medical imaging facilities in Bldg. 55, transgenic mice lab in Bldg. 74, Public Information Department, National Center for Electron Microscopy, and machine shops. There were also demonstrations of LBL's Hands-On Universe educational program and a walking tour of the geology and seismology of LBL.

A complete set of proofs of the photographs taken during the Daughters to Work Day event is available for viewing at the Photo Lab, Bldg. 10-118.
