Green, Associate Editor and Author for the Annual Review of Public Health, Dr. Roger Nicoll, Editorial Committee Member for the Annual Review of Physiology and Michel Nussenzweig, Editorial Committee Member and Author for the Annual Review of Immunology, have been named as new members of the Institute of Medicine (IOM). Election into the IOM is considered one of the most distinguished honors in the fields of health and medicine, recognizing those who have demonstrated outstanding professional achievement and a devotion to service. Green, Nicoll and Nussenzweig were among 65 new members and five foreign associates elected this year.

Dr. Lawrence W. Green, Professor of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), is developing the Program in Society, Diversity and Disparities, for the UCSF Comprehensive Cancer Center; while serving on Boards of Directors for Community-Campus Partnerships for Health, and Health Promotion Advocates.

Dr. Nicoll is an Editorial Committee Member for the Annual Review of Physiology and has written for Annual Reviews two times. His articles include:

Dr. Michel Nussenzweig, Sherman Fairchild Professor and Senior Physician for the Department of Molecular Immunology at Rockefeller University, New York City and Investigator for the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, combines a variety of techniques from biochemistry and molecular biology with gene targeting and transgenic technologies to get an atomic-level look at the workings of the immune system. Dr. Nussenzweig is an Editorial Committee Member and Author for the Annual Review of Immunology and has written for Annual Reviews two times. His articles include:

Established in 1970 by the National Academy of Sciences, the IOM has become recognized as a national resource for independent, scientifically informed analysis and recommendations on health issues. With their election, members make a commitment to volunteer their service on IOM committees, boards, and other activities. Studies and initiatives during the past year include: a review of the long-term effects of traumatic brain injury among military personnel; an assessment of the health effects due to lack of insurance; recommendations for comparative effectiveness research priorities; new guidelines for how much weight women should gain during pregnancy; a blueprint for American leadership in advancing global health; a strategy for preventing medical conflicts of interest; and a series of meetings on improving health care value through evidence-based medicine.

October 12, 2009 - Annual Reviews Congratulates Dr. Elinor Ostrom, Author for the Annual Review of Political Science, tbe Annual Review of Environment and Resources, and the Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution and Systematics, and Dr. Oliver Williamson, Author for the Annual Review of Law and Social Science, Co-Recipients of The 2009 Nobel Prize in Economics.

Annual Reviews is proud to announce that Dr. Elinor Ostrom, Author for the Annual Review of Political Science, Annual Review of Environment and Resources, and the Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution, and Systematics, and Dr. Oliver Williamson, Author for the Annual Review of Law and Social Science, have been named as joint recipients of The 2009 Nobel Prize in Economics for the work in the studies of Economic Governance.

Dr. Elinor Ostrom is the first woman to win the prize in its 40-year history. Ostrom, Arthur F. Bentley Professor of Political Science and Professor at the School of Public and Environmental Affairs, both at Indiana University, was praised "for her analysis of economic governance, especially the commons." Ostrom's work shows that local communities often manage common resources -- such as woods, lakes and fish stocks -- better on their own than when outside authorities impose rules, the committee said. Dr. Ostrom has written for three Annual Reviews series. Her articles include:

Dr. Oliver Williamson, Edgar F. Kaiser Professor Emeritus of Business, Economics and Law and Professor of the Graduate School, both at the University of California, Berkeley, was cited "for his analysis of economic governance, especially the boundaries of the firm." Williamson's work examines why large corporations tend to arise -- and why they do not -- based on the cost and complexity of transactions, according to the Nobel committee. "He has taught us to regard markets, firms, associations, agencies and even households from the perspective of their contribution to the resolution of conflict," the panel said. Dr. Williamson wrote "Why Law, Economics, and Organization?" in the Annual Review of Law and Social Science, Volume 1 (2005).

The Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences was established in 1968 by the Central Bank of Sweden in memory of Alfred Nobel. It is given by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, which since 1901 has been awarding Nobel Prizes for achievements in physics, chemistry, physiology or medicine, literature and for peace.

Annual Reviews is proud to announce that Sandra Faber, Annual Reviews Board Member and Author, has been awarded the $250,000 Bower Award and Prize for Achievement in Science for a lifetime’s work in understanding the structure and evolution of the universe.

For 185 years, The Franklin Institute has honored the greatest men and women of science, engineering, and technology. The Franklin Institute Awards are among the oldest and most prestigious comprehensive science awards in the world.

Among science's highest honors, The Franklin Institute Awards identify individuals whose great innovation has benefited humanity, advanced science, launched new fields of inquiry, and deepened our understanding of the universe.

The 2009 Bower Award and Prize for Achievement in Science was presented to Sandra Faber for extraordinary advances in our knowledge of the properties of distant galaxies, dark matter, large scale structure of the Universe, and black holes in galactic nuclei; and for innovative leadership in the development of astronomical facilities.

Sandra Faber, and astronomer and the University of California, Santa Cruz, began her association with Annual Reviews as an author in 1979. She joined our Board of Directors in 1988 and our Editorial Affairs Committee in 1994.

Dr. Faber is credited with developing the first comprehensive model of how the universe formed and was among the earliest researchers to include cold dark matter in galactic models. Her research also helped lay the foundation for the now widely accepted notion that most galaxies have a supermassive black hole at their center.
