S. N. Timasheff Selected for Flemming Award
DR. S. N. TIMASHEFF, a physical chemist in the Eastern Regional Laboratory at Wyndmoor, Pennsylvania, was a recent recipient of the Arthur S. Flemming award. He was cited for his excellent research on the structure and thermodynamic behavior of the milk protein, betalactoglobulin. In addition, he has determined the structural geometry in solution of ribosomal ribonucleic acid, which plays a vital role in genetics.
Dr. Timasheff participated in the symposium on milk proteins at the Annual Meeting of the American Dairy Science Association at the University of Wisconsin in 1961. In 1963, he received the Borden Award in Dairy Chemistry of $1,000 and a gold medal.
The Flemming Awards Program is an activity of the Junior Chamber of Commerce of the District of Columbia to honor young men for outstanding service in the Federal Government. It is named for Arthur S. Flemming, former Chairman of the U.S. Civil Service Commission and now President of the University of Oregon.
