The 75th ACS Colloid & Surface Chem istry Symposium will be held June 1013,2001, at Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh. The program will include symposia in the following areas: self-assembling sys tems, from microscopic forces to macro scopic structure; bulk rheology and dy namics of complex fluids; colloidal stabili ty and aggregation dynamics; interface control of the structure and dynamics of thin fluid films; structural studies of col loids and complex fluids near interfaces; physical and chemical issues in selfassembly on surfaces; fundamentals of the mechanical and tribological proper ties of interfaces; bioadhesion and biomolecules at interfaces; simulation and theory of surfaces, interfaces, and com plexfluids;electrokinetics and microfluidics; interfacial processes in the water environment; and general papers in col loid and surface chemistry. A poster ses sion on fundamental and applied re search will also be held. The deadline for abstract submission is Dec. 1. Abstracts should be submitted electronically; follow the instructions on the symposium website: http:// colloids2001.cheme.cmu.edu/. Questions can be sent via e-mail to

Friedman Wins Award In Agricultural And Food Chemistry Mendel Friedman of the Department of Agriculture's Western Regional Research Center, Albany, Calif., has received the 2000 Award for Advancement of Applica tion of Agricultural & Food Chemistry. This award, which consists of $3,000, a plaque, and meeting travel expenses, is Continued on page 55

Continuedfrompage 42 sponsored by International Flavors & Fra grances and is administered by the ACS Agricultural & Food Chemistry Division. It was presented last week to Friedman at the ACS national meeting in Wash ington, D.C. Friedman's ca reer, beginning with his receipt of a Ph.D. degree in organic chemistry from the Universi ty of Chicago, has spanned more than 30 years and resulted in more than 300 publications. Particularly notable is his research on the chemical changes that occur in proteins during heating under alkaline conditions. He was a pioneer in showing that nearly 50 chemical modifications of proteins can occur as the result of β-elimination from serine, threonine, cysteine, cystine, and their derivatives. He also contributed to the development of methods for deter mining sulfur-containing amino acids in proteins, cross-linking reactions of pro teins, the chemistry and biological prop erties of potato and tomato glycoalkaloids, as well as numerous areas dealing with processing and nutrition of food pro teins. He has edited numerous books on these subjects.^
