A long-time leading "moving st,i-rit" in nuclear research, Dr. Wilkinson has received many honors for his scientific work, including the Holweck Medal of the British and French Physical Societies, the Hughes Medal of the Royal Society and an Honorary Doctor of Science degree from the University of Saskatchewan. During the past year,
lectured extensively in the United States. His special fields of interest are structure and biosynthesis of natural products, antibotics and plant products. He has consulted with several major drug companies. The fourth lecturer in the series, Dr. Charles Coulson, August 5-11, is known throughout the world for his application of mathematics to chemistry and for his knowledge of the nature of the chemica l bond. Professor Coulson has also been interested for many years in relating science and religion . LEADING PHYSICIST
Dr. Rudolf L. Mossbauer , head of the Physics Department at Technical University in Munich, Germany, to be on campus August 11-17, received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1961 at the age of 32.
One of the world's leading physicists, he was awarded the honor for his discovery and ex-
planation of the physical effect known as the Mossbauer effect. Among the many awards he has won for his work are the Rontgen Prize and the Elliot Cresson Meda! of the Franklin
Institute .
He was recen tly named the new director of the German-French High Flux Nuclear Reactor Research Center in Grenoble, Fra nce.
