28th Congress of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada August 1 6 - 2 1 , 1981 The 28th Congress of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) will be held on the campus of the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada, Aug. 16-21, 1981. The analytical chemistry program at the congress, consisting of three symposia, promises to be an interesting one, with a number of distinguished speakers scheduled. The symposium on Applications of Mass Spectrometry in Analysis was organized by F. W. Karasek (University of Waterloo); Catherine Fenselau (Johns Hopkins University) will deliver the keynote address on Middle Molecule Mass Spectrometry. Dallas Rabenstein (University of Alberta) organized the symposium on Applications of Analytical Chemistry in Biology and Medicine, at which W. Simon (Eidgenossische Technische Hochschule, Zurich) will deliver a keynote lecture on Ion-Selective Electrodes in Biology and Medicine. And Tomas Hirschfeld (Lawrence Livermore Laboratory) will deliver the keynote address on Instrumental Methods in Analytical Chemistry at a symposium of the same name, organized by Gary Horlick (University of Alberta). Walter E. Harris, also from the University of Alberta, has overall responsibility for the analytical program. In addition to the analytical program, seven other divisions are spon-

soring symposia at the congress. These divisions are: Chemistry in the Solution of Energy Problems, Chemistry in the Study of the Environment, Chemistry in the Beneficiation of Resources, Computers in Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Physical Chemistry. One of the symposia being sponsored by the Division of Computers in Chemistry is Application of Microprocessors in Chemical Instrumentation and Processing, organized by Gary Horlick. Further information on the complete congress program appeared in the March 23, 1981, issue of Chemical & Engineering News (pp 69-72). The deadline for congress preregistration (at lower cost) was June 1, but the Congress Secretariat will make every effort to register JOURNAL readers at the lower fees if the proper forms are received as soon as possible. In registering, mention that you are a reader of ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY. The "Second Circular" on the congress, which includes registration and housing application forms, should be requested immediately by those who wish to take advantage of the specially extended preregistration deadline. The fees are: regular preregistration, $150; preregistration for students and young scientists (highest degree earned since Jan. 1, 1979), $50; regular late registration (after deadline), $200;

late registration for students and young scientists, $75. The Second Circular should be requested by phone or telex. The phone number is 613-233-5623 (ask for Joan Fitzsimmons); the telex number is 0534306AIC. Alternatively, the Second Circular can be requested by mail from the Congress Secretariat, 28th IUPAC Congress, c/o Chemical Institute of Canada, 151 Slater St., Suite 906, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada K I P 5H3.

Rani George

Rani George Joins ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY Staff Rani Anne George joined the staff of ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY as an

editorial assistant in April. George earned her BA in chemistry at the College of Notre Dame, Baltimore, Md., in 1978. While still an undergraduate, she did work in calorimetry, electrophoresis, and radioimmunoassay as a research assistant at the National Bureau of Standards, the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, and Litton Bionetics. After graduation, she performed water pollution analyses as an analytical chemist at Penniman & Browne in Baltimore, Md. Before joining the JOURNAL staff, she was involved in the publication of a scientific bulletin on smoking and health at Informatics, Inc., Rockville, Md. Her initial assignments on ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY will include editorial participation in the peer review process for technical manuscripts, and responsibility for New Products, Manufacturers' Literature, For Your Information, Short Courses, Call for Papers, and Meetings.

awards, NSF awarded honorable mention to 1231 applicants (including 78 minority applicants) in recognition of their potential for scientific careers. More than 3800 students applied for the fellowships, including over 400 minority students. The fellowships provide a stipend of $4800 per year for full-time graduate study. In addition, an annual cost-ofeducation allowance of $3400 is provided by NSF, in lieu of tuition and
