Royal Soceity Of New Zealand - About the following years most of its various institutes and societies during the yearwith other science societies in Rotorua by Dr Brad Scott on geology of the http://rotorua.rsnz.org/about.htm
Extractions: Rotorua Branch Last century when early settlers arrived in New Zealand they found very little in their new environment that was familiar, from the sky at night, the birds and trees, the native people, to the ground itself. Those intrepid people with an enquiring mind collected specimens of everything they could find, studied and catalogued them to satisfy their curiosity. This was in the time of Darwin before his theories were formed, when people like James Hector, Sir George Grey, Julius Haast, Walter Buller, William Colenso and Charles Heaphy were exploring New Zealand. Some, like Grey and Colenso (who incidentally died one hundred years ago this month) are now remembered for their endeavours in other fields, but they were then known widely for their contributions to science in New Zealand. They formed discussion groups to present and share their new-found knowledge to their peers and wrote articles in newspapers and scientific journals. The groups gave themselves names like New Zealand Society, Philosophical Institute of Canterbury, Auckland Institute. Their aims were to set up museums and libraries where their collected specimens and knowledge could be kept and displayed, to encourage scientific investigation by others, especially young people new in the land and to discuss subjects wider than science, including the arts and literature. In 1867, Sir George Grey introduced an Act that set up an organisation called the "New Zealand Institute" whose purpose was to oversee the various philosophical societies and institutes and act as a focal point for information relating to science in New Zealand. Its aim was to advance and promote science in the new colony.

Extractions: Your Window on AGI Perspectives and Activities November/December 1996 The American Geological Institute (AGI) inducted Dr. Edward C. Roy Jr. as president for 1997 during its annual reception and awards ceremony on Tuesday, Oct. 29, 1996, at the annual meeting of the Geological Society of America (GSA) in Denver. Roy, who served as President-Elect of the 1996 Executive Committee, begins a one-year term. Roy is Vice President for Academic Affairs and a professor of geology at Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas. His research interests are paleontology, paleoecology, biostratigraphy, and sedimentology. His publications are devoted to the paleoecology and sedimentology of Mesozoic and Cenozoic rocks. He holds memberships in several professional societies, including the American Association of Petroleum Geologists, SEPM (Society for Sedimentary Geology), and the Paleontological Society as well as the South Texas Geological Society. Roy is also a member of the Board on Earth Sciences and Resources and the Committee on Women in Science and Engineering of the National Research Council. Dr. Rodger W. Bybee, one of the nation's leading science educators, will direct a "Discussion and Commentary" session on Oct. 28, 1996, at the annual meeting of the Geological Society of America, to examine ways for earth-science educators and curriculum pla nners to meet the goals set forth in the

During 1967-68, an electronic control unit incorporat- ing the point on-wave selector for conducting duty test, in con- junction with the available high-current generator and the special power-frequency transformer, was developed. Steps are in hand for developing the magnetic blow-out device and this will form the mainline of investigations during 1968-69. 5.39.

CFBS | Canadian Federation Of Biological Societies time, from the CIHR institutes. Their contracts with these two societies. societies/institutes etc. in arranging meetings. Also suggested was the involvement of Physical societies http://www.cfbs.org/current2001.html
Extractions: The Strategic Planning Session was held again this year in the Lord Elgin Hotel in Ottawa. The 2001 meeting welcomed members, for the first time, from the CIHR Institutes. Their presence helped broaden the input of topics that could provide the basis for future CFBS Annual Scientific Meetings. It also permitted them input on issues related to advancing life sciences research in Canada. We were especially pleased to note the presence of representatives from the Canadian Society for Zoologists and the Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology. CFBS has this year signed contracts with these two Societies. In addition officials from NSERC, CFI and CIHR were present. Rounding out the attendees were delegates from various life science societies some of which were non-members of the Federation. SOCIETIES AND FINANCES Last year was one in which CFBS continued to attain a much healthier financial state and as a result found itself in the position of providing greater service to its community. The addition of two new Societies and the success of the Annual Meetings have contributed to a more comfortable bottom line.
