The NAS Award for Chemistry in Service to Society is awarded by the U.S. National Academy of Sciences "for contributions to chemistry, either in fundamental science or its application, that clearly satisfy a societal need." It has been awarded every two years since its inception in 1991.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】title= NAS Award for Chemistry in Service to Society ) 〕 == List of NAS Award for Chemistry in Service to Society winners == Source: (NAS ) *Bruce D. Roth (2015) :For his discovery, synthesis and commercial development of atorvastatin (Lipitor), the most successful cholesterol lowering medicine in history. *Edward C. Taylor (2013) :For his contributions to heterocyclic chemistry, in particular the discovery of the new-generation antifolate pemetrexed, approved for the treatment of mesothelioma and non-small cell lung cancer and under clinical investigation for treatment of a variety of other solid tumors. *Paul J. Reider (2011) :For his contributions to the discovery and development of numerous approved drugs, including those for treating asthma and for treating AIDS. *John D. Roberts (2009) :For seminal contributions in physical organic chemistry, in particular the introduction of NMR spectroscopy to the chemistry community. *Arthur A. Patchett (2007) :For innovative contributions in discoveries of Mevacor, the first statin that lowers cholesterol levels, and of Vasotec and Prinivil for treating hypertension and congestive heart failure. *Marvin H. Caruthers (2005) :For his invention and development of chemical reagents and methods currently used for the automated synthesis of DNA oligonucleotides (i.e., the "gene machine"). *Paul S. Anderson (2003) :For his scientific leadership in two drugs approved for the treatment of AIDS and for his widely cited basic research related to the glutamate receptor. *Paul C. Lauterbur (2001) :For his research on nuclear magnetic resonance and its applications in chemistry and medicine, and his contributions to the development of magnetic resonance imaging in medicine. *C. Grant Willson (1999) :For his fundamental contribution to the chemistry of materials that produce micropatterns in semiconductors, and for its widespread application in the microelectronics industry for the benefit of society. *Ernest L. Eliel (1997) :For his seminal and far-reaching contributions in organic stereochemistry and for his wise and energetic leadership in professional societies that represent the interests of chemists and of society, both in the United States and abroad. *P. Roy Vagelos (1995) :For his fundamental contributions to the understanding of fatty acid biosynthesis, cholesterol metabolism, and phospholipid metabolism, and for his leadership at Merck that led to the discovery of a number of important therapeutic and preventive agents. *Harold S. Johnston (1993) :For his pioneering efforts to point out that man-made emissions could affect the chemistry of the stratosphere, in particular, the danger of the depletion by nitrogen oxide of the earth's critical and fragile ozone layer. *Vladimir Haensel (1991) :For his outstanding research in the catalytic reforming of hydrocarbons, that has greatly enhanced the economic value of our petroleum natural resources. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「NAS Award for Chemistry in Service to Society」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
