To understand the biological function of macromolecules their structural features should be known at the atomic level. These issues are current hot issues in biochemistry and the structural chemistry field. The most powerful method, NMR spectroscopy, and both synthetic and naturally isolated biopolymers are being used to approach these subjects. For several years we developed NMR methodology to solve the biochemical structural problems. Among them, they established water suppression techniques, two-dimensional NMR, solid state NMR, multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, and other advanced NMR spectroscopic methods, including saturation-recovery and multiple-quantum hetero-nuclear two-dimensional NMR. They also established modern method of DNA and peptide synthesis and equipment and new Silicon Graphics Workstation. Using these techniques they can investigate all the structural conformation and dynamics of macromolecules.

There he participated in the development of a new science teacher education program and the development of education programs for nomadic groups. His research was on the influence of traditional culture on learning in formal school settings. Dr. Cobern came away from that experience having given much thought to the notion that for many students science is a second cultural experience. From this basis in experience he developed a worldview theoretical framework for conceiving of science as an aspect of culture which warrants the assertion that meaningful science learning only occurs to the extent that scientific knowledge can find a cognitive niche within the everyday thinking of ordinary people. This theoretical work has been developed in several publications that have been studies and adopted by science education researchers in Africa and Australia who are struggling with cultural issues. In the United States of America, his work has drawn the attention of science educators working with Native Americans, African Americans, and religious communities.

He had written two dozen books. Fred F. B. Coffin Harold G. Coffin Ph.D. (1926 - ) Harold Coffin retired from the Geoscience Research Institute on June 28, 1991 after twenty seven years of service there as a research scientist and associate. Harold completed his Bachelor of Arts Degree in Biology at Walla Walla College, Washington, in 1947. He continued his undergraduate study and education there, completing his Master of Science Degree in Biology there in 1952. Three years later, in 1955, he completed his Ph.D. in Marine Zoology at the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California. During his graduate work, Harold was appointed a Research Fellow through the Allen Hancock Foundation. For five years Dr. Coffin taught biology at Canadian Union College and later served as its Chairman for the Division of Science. In 1956 he returned to serve as Associate Professor of Biology and became the department's Chairman two years later in 1958. His dual role as professor and Chair continued for six years until 1964. In 1964 Dr. Coffin accepted a position as a research scientist at the Geoscience Research Institute, then located at Andrews University, Michigan. In 1980 he moved with the Institute from Andrews University to Loma Linda University, California. Dr. Coffin maintains memberships in the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the Geological Society of America, and Sigma Xi. His articles have been published in the Geological Society of America Bulletin, Journal of Paleontology, Geology, Palaios, Creation Research Society Quarterly, Origins, and various other journals. He has authored or coauthored six books. Over the past twenty five years Dr. Coffin and many other scientists have worked diligently on the Yellowstone fossil "forests" project in an effort to understand the geologic history of the numerous layers of upright fossil stumps. Many scientists contributed pieces to the puzzle. Dr. Coffin's research in the Specimen Creek area, Yellowstone National Park, and in Spirit Lake, Mt. St. Helens, are landmark studies. The modern analog that he developed from his Spirit Lake research and applied to his transport model for the Yellowstone fossil "forests" effectively refuted the arguments for successive forests living and dying in place over an extended period of time. Dr. Coffin has plans to write books about creation and the flood for non-scientists and is called upon by the Geoscience Research Institute for special assignments. Merrill Cohen M.D., F.A.A.E.M.

David H. Collins B.S., M.Div. David Collins has worked as a Naval Architect. He has a Master of Divinity Degree from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, Deerfield, Illinois. Francis S. Collins M.D., Ph.D. ![]() Dr. Francis Collins is a physician-geneticist and has been the Director of the National Human Genome Research Institute, NIH and has been head of the Human Genome Project since 1993. In that role he overseas a fifteen year project aimed at mapping and sequencing all of the human DNA by the year 2005. Collins was raised on a small farm in Virginia and was home-schooled until the sixth grade. He obtained his Bachelor of Arts Degree in Chemistry from the University of Virginia with highest honors. He followed up with a M.Phil. in 1972 and a Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry at Yale University in 1974. Recognizing that a revolution was beginning in molecular biology and genetics, he changed fields and enrolled in medical school to study medicine at the University of North Carolina, where he encountered the field of medical genetics and knew he had found his dream, receiving his M.D. in 1977. After a residency and chief residency in internal medicine at North Carolina Memorial Hospital, Chapel Hill from 1977 to 1980, he returned to Yale for a fellowship in human genetics from 1981 to 1984, where he worked on methods of crossing large stretches of DNA to identify disease genes. He continued to develop these ideas after joining the faculty at the University of Michigan in 1984 as Assistant Professor of Internal Medicine and Human Genetics. He stayed at Michigan until 1993, becoming a full Professor of Internal Medicine and Human Genetics and an Investigator in the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. This approach, for which he later coined the term positional cloning, has developed into a powerful component of modern molecular genetics, as it allows the identification of disease genes for almost any condition, without knowing ahead of time what the functional abnormality might be. Dr. Collins became a scientific superstar in 1989 when together with Lap-Chee Tsui and Jack Riordan of the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Canada, he employed this new technique of positional cloning to find the human gene that can give rise to cystic fibrosis. His discovery quickly made possible the development of tests for prenatal diagnosis of the disease. He also discovered in 1990 the genes that play a role in neurofibromatosis, Huntington's disease in 1993, ataxia telangiectasia and multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1. That same year, Collins accepted an invitation to become the second director of the National Center for Human Genome Research at the National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland, following in the footsteps of James Watson. In addition, Collins founded a new NIH intramural research program in genome research, which has now grown to become one of the premier research units in human genetics in the country. His own research laboratory continues to be vigorously active, exploring the molecular genetics of breast cancer, prostate cancer, adult-onset diabetes, and other disorders. His accomplishments have been recognized by election to the Institute of Medicine and the National Academy of Sciences, and numerous national and international awards including the Gairdner Award in 1990; the National Medical Research Award from the National Health Council in 1991; the Dickson Prize from Pitt; Honorary Doctorates from Emory, Yale, Mt. Sinai and the University of North Carolina; Member of the National Academy of Sciences in 1993; Baxter Award in 1994; Lila Gruber Cancer Research Award in 1995, and the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Award for Scientific Distinction in 1995. John V. Collyer John Collyer works with the Creation Science Movement in the United Kingdom and reviews science magazine articles for them. He has written articles which have had wide circulation.

He received a J.D. with honors from George Washington University in 1959. He was Partner to the Gadsby and Hannah Law Firm from 1961 to 1969 and Special Counsel to President Richard M. Nixson from 1969 to 1973. He was Partner to the Colson and Shapiro Law Firm from 1973 to 1974. He is Founder and Chairman of the Board of Prison Fellowship and Prison Fellowship International since 1976. The Fellowship was started from royalties of his first book Born Again. Chuck Colson was Outstanding Young Man of Boston, Chamber of Commerce in 1960. He received Honorary doctorates from various colleges and universities from 1982 to 1995. H received the Others Award, Salvation Army in 1990, the Humanitarian Award, Dominoes Pizza Corporation in 1991, and $1 million Templeton Prize for Progress in Religion in 1993 with the prize money donated to Prison Fellowship. Over the past twenty some years, nearly five million copies of Colson's fifteen books have been sold in the United States. He donates royalties from these books to Prison Fellowship. He has visited more than six hundred prisons in forty countries and, with the help of nearly fifty thousand volunteers, has built Prison Fellowship into the world's largest prison outreach, serving the spiritual and practical needs of prisoners in eighty-three countries inlcuding the United States. In 1983 his vision grew to include reforming the criminal justice system as well as those incarcarated within it. He founded Justice Fellowship, an organization dedicated to working with legislators and policy makers to enact restorative justice principles. Justice Fellowship studies the causes of and proposes specific solutions for prison overcrowding, recidivism, and neglected crime victims. In 1989, he again expanded Prison Fellowship by adding Neighbors Who Care, a community-based support system for victims of crime. Colson is considered one of America's leading authorities on the causes of and responses to crime. He has addressed nearly half the state legislatures in America and has met with a majority of governors. He has contributed articles to magazines and newspapers such as The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, the Washington Post, and the Chicago Tribune. Gary Colwell Ph.D. Gary Colwell is Philosophy Professor in the Department of Philosophy at Concordia University College of Alberta, Canada. He received a Bachelor of Arts Degree and a Master of Arts Degree from New Brunswick. He recieved a Ph.D. from the University of Waterloo. He has written numerous articles for publications such as Philosophy, Informal Logic, Dialogue and Argumentation. Arthur Holly Compton Ph.D. (September 10, 1892 - March 15, 1962) ![]() Arthur Compton was born at Wooster, Ohio, the son of Elias Compton, who was Professor of Philosophy and Dean of the College of Wooster. Arthur was educated at the College, graduating with a Bachelor of Science Degree in 1913, and spent three years doing postgraduate study at Princeton University receiving his Master of Arts Degree in 1914 and his Ph.D. in 1916. After spending a year as Instructor of Physics at the University of Minnesota, he took a position as a research engineer with the Westinghouse Lamp Company at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania until 1919 when he studied at Cambridge University as a National Research Council Fellow. In 1920, he was appointed Wayman Crow Professor of Physics, and was Head of the Department of Physics at Washington University in St. Louis. In 1923 he moved to the University of Chicago as Professor of Physics. Compton returned to St. Louis as Chancellor in 1945 and from 1954 until his retirement in 1961 he was Distinguished Service Professor of Natural Philosophy at the Washington University. In his early days at Princeton, Compton devised a method for demonstrating the Earth's rotation, but he was soon to begin his studies in the field of X-rays. He developed a theory of the intensity of X-ray reflection from crystals as a means of studying the arrangement of electrons and atoms, and in 1918 he started a study of X-ray scattering. This led, in 1922, to his discovery of the increase of wavelength of X-rays due to scattering of the incident radiation by free electrons, which implies that the scattered quanta have less energy than the quanta of the original beam. This effect, now known as the Compton effect, which demonstrates the particle concept of electromagnetic radiation, was later substantiated by C. T. R. Wilson who, in his cloud chamber, substantiated the presence of the tracks of the recoil electrons. Another line of evidence showing the reality of this phenomenon was supplied by the coincidence method (developed by W. Bothe and H. Geiger in Germany, and independently by A.W. Simon and Compton), by which it could be established that individual scattered X-ray photons and recoil electrons appear at the same instant, contradicting the views then being developed by some investigators in an attempt to reconcile quantum views with the continuous waves of electromagnetic theory. For this discovery, Compton was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for 1927 (sharing this with C. T. R. Wilson who received the Prized for his discovery of the cloud chamber methods). During 1930 to 1940, Compton led an international study of the geographic variations of the intensity of cosmic rays, thereby fully comfirming the observations made in 1927 by J. Clay from Amsterdarm of the influence of lattitude on cosmic ray intensity. Compton had shown, however, that the intensity was correlated with geomagnetic rather than geographic latitute. This gave rise to extensive studies of the interaction of the Earth's magnetic field with incoming isotropic stream of primary charged particles. Dr. Compton was awarded numerous honorary degrees and other distinctions including the Rumford Gold Medal (from the American Academy of Arts and Sciences) in 1927; the Gold Medal of the Radiological Society of North America in 1928; the Hughes Medal (from the Royal Society) and the Franklin Medal (from the Franklin Institute) in 1940. He served as President of the American Physical Society in 1934, as President of the American Association of Scientific Workers from 1939 to 1940, and President of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 1942. In 1941 Compton was appointed Chairman of the National Academy of Sciences Committee to Evaluate Use of Atomic Energy in War. His investigations, carried out in cooperation with E. Fermi, L. Szilard, E.P. Wigner and others, led to the establishment of the first controlled uranium fission reactors, and, ultimately, to the large plutonium-producing reactors in Hanford, Washington. Compton had numerous scientific papers published. Bob Compton D.V.M., Ph.D. ![]() Dr. Bob Compton obtained his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine Degree at Washington State University and a Ph.D. in Physiology at the University of Wisconsin/Madison. He helps veterinarians, cattle ranchers, and dairymen develop animal health programs by giving them information about immune systems and the viruses and bacteria that cause disease in beef and dairy herds. Over the last twenty some years, scientific research has uncovered vital information about cattle diseases and how the immune system functions. Dr. Compton writes booklets and conducts workshops that educate veterinarians and animal producers, showing them how to apply current research into their herd health program. In addition to animal health, Dr. Compton also educates on soil nutrition and soil management, which helps ranchers and farmers to produce healthier animals and plants. He is involved with reviewing high school biology textbooks to ensure that the content of each textbook is scientifically accurate, factual, and objectively balanced, thus promoting educational excellence.

Melvin Alonzo Cook Ph.D. (October 10, 1911 - October 12, 2000) Melvin Alonzo Cook was born at Swan Creek, Utah, near Bear Lake. Education was very important to his parents. Cook attended the University of Utah and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Chemistry in 1933 and a Master of Arts Degree in Physical Chemistry in 1934. He received a Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry from Yale University in 1937 and was the recipient of the Loomis Fellowship which is given to the top Ph.D. graduate in Chemistry which provided for a large sum of money. His professors A.J. Hill in Organic Chemistry; Blare Saxton in thermodynamics: H.S. Hared in Electrochemistry; and Nobel laureate Lars Onsager all provided outstanding research guidance and instruction at Yale which resulted in the publication of five articles on thermo-electrochemistry of aqueous solutions in the Journal of the American Chemical Society before his graduation, and in his dissertation, "Thermodynamics of Potassium Hydroxide Solution from Electromotive Force Measurements." Dr. Cook worked at the Eastern Laboratory of the Du Pont Company, Bibbstown, New Jersey. The early years at Du Pont brought forth perhaps the finest explosives library in the world, and he became familiar with German, French and English explosives literature. Dr. Cook developed new explosives including EL357, an oil well explosive which eliminated the need for the dangerous and very sensitive liquid nitroglycerin for shooting water, gas well, and deep oil and Nitramon A which was an improvement on the original patent that became the most popular exclusive in open pit blasting for over two decades. It required a high pressure booster for iniation instead of a blasting cap, a very important safety factor. Dr. Cook's most important development during this period was his "Theory of Detonation", published for commercial use first but was later revised for military application, given to the Allies during WWII and is considered one of the major developments in the history of explosives and is an important part of his book The Science of Explosives, American Chemical Society Monograph No.139, first published in 1958. During WWII, Dr. Cook served as Du Pont's representative on the "Brain Trust" which included about twenty five of America's leading physical scientists such as Eyring, Kistiakowsky, Gamov, Einstein, and Bethe. They mainly worked on theories of detonation and explosives. Most commerical work was discontinued during the war in order to concentrate effort on military explosive devices and explosives. His work on shaped charges improved substantially the effectiveness of the Bazooka. The original patent was purchased from Mohaupt in France, however it couldn't penetrate German tanks until the improvements were made. He received a special citation at Picatinny Arsenal on May 1992 by the United States Army, for this and other important considerations. After meeting Eyring on the "Brain Trust", Dr. Cook worked closely with him. Eyring accepted the position of Dean of the Graduate School at the University of Utah in 1946, and had encouraged Cook to pursue a position at the University. The offer of Full Professor of Metallurgy with tenure came in 1947. Dr. Cook left Du Pont at that time, but was retained as a consultant for five years. Dr. Cook directed research for doctoral candidates and taught surface chemistry and solid state physics as Professor of Metallurgy at the University of Utah. His work there included the development of his flotation theory in 1947, which he defended for approximately 10 years against two other theories suggested by Taggart of Columbia and Gaudin of MIT, until his theory was accepted by the scientific community. Studies on the adsorption of gases on solids were published in 1948. Dr. Cook was called on later in 1970 to analyze and publish results on adsorption of mane gases on moon rock. The United States Army service came to the University of Utah in 1952 to consider a research project that resulted in Dr. Cook becoming Director of the Explosives Research Group and the Institute of Metals and Explosives Research. These projects brought to the University substantial research funds and accomplished some very important research into the mechanism of detonation. Dr. Cook served as a consultant for one hundred plus different companies throughout the world including Africa, Canada, Germany, Australia, England, Switzerland, and the United States. He was called to a committee of scientists chosen to investigate the Texas City disaster of 1947, when two shiploads of ammonium nitrate fertilizer exploded in the harbor at Galveston, Texas, destroying the surrounding area and which killed over six hundred people including three hundred scientists in the Monsanto Laboratory. He became the expert witness for the plaintiffs. Dr. Cook consulted for the Association of American Railroads from 1948 to 1951 in regard to the tariffs for the hazards involved in the transportation of explosives. He had also served on an Armed Services Advisory Committee on the Minute Man for Picatinny Arsenal in New Jersey, and the ad hoc committee for Cryogenic Propellents. Dr. Cook's greatest commercial explosives invention was made in December of 1956, while consulting for the Iron Ore Company at the Knob Lake Mine in Labrador, where he formulated a new blasting agent using an unusual mixture of ammonium nitrate, water, and aluminum powder. The efficiency and safety of this newly created explosive was apparent, and the utilization of water was revolutionary. Test that followed resulted in the creation of a new field of explosives: slurry explosives, boosters, and pump trucks for their bulk delivery. This invention converted the commercial explosives industry from dangerous dynamite to safe slurry and dry blasting agents. As a result of the Knob Lake Experiment, the Iron Ore Company of Cada supported the important research on slurry explosives beginning in 1957. Following increased demand for this research work and boosters, the International research and Engineering Company was organized in 1958 by six graduate students and Dr. Cook. Mesabi Blasting Agents was founded in 1960 for the operation on the Mesabi Iron Range. In 1963 these two companies merged forming IRECO Chemicals, a worldwide operation. The years Dr. Cook spent at IRECO involved much world travel in order to establish new accounts and apply expertise to improving blasting methods at leading mining companies. This also included the writing of many technical papers on blasting and explosives. As a result of the many developments there during those years, over one hundred patents regarding this new type of slurry and emulation blasting agents and delivery methods were filed. Dr. Cook was President of IRECO until 1972 when his oldest son became President. The last important work he completed while there was his book The Science of Industrial Explosives published in 1974. In 1973, Dr. Cook and his son, Merrill A. Cook, formed Cook Associates for consulting purposes. They undertook the development of a new patented slurry and pump truck system. Atlas Powder Company approached them to buy it and they became associated with Atlas during 1977 working on the Iron Range in Minnesota. After the contract with Atlas was terminated, other new pump trucks and slurry products, such as their emulsion perchlorate slurry, were invented and marketed by Cook Associates (Cook Slurry Company). In 1994 Dr. Cook sold his interest in Cook Associates and its successors to his son. Dr. Cook had effectively been on retirement since 1983 and began to work on his three volume autobiography. This project began originally in 1973 with Volume I. However, much of his time was devoted to prehistory. Dr. Cook has always held a close relationship between his scientific and religious philosophies. The usual tendency is to keep science and religion separate, but he often worked allowing science and religion to augment each other with careful attention to experimental and observational fact, using mathematics as the means for making the connections. The belief that religion held keys to a fundamental understanding of the universe and of many scientific principles, occasionally surfaced in Cook's talks and writings. In his Reynold lecture in 1952 he went outside the printed text to mention that he thought the real source of solar energy was 'borrowed light', accretion and that nuclear fusion was a minor contribution, if any at all. This resulted in mild attacks several days later in the seminar reviewing of his Reynolds lecture. Another conflict in the scientific community was instigated when Dr. Cook was asked to write an introduction to the book Man: His origin and Destiny. The strong criticism of this book led Dr. Cook to a position of defending it and to a deeper involvement in issues pertaining to science and religion. He gained notoriety and perhaps some acceptance, in a well-publicized seminary at the University of Utah, that evolution violated the second law of thermodynamics. The press carried an article throughout the country regarding the idea. In autumn of that year, the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Switzerland carried on a vigorous discussion of the issue. The next year a formal conference was held at Wistar Institute in Philadelphia to debate the subject. Most agreed that evolution does indeed violate the second law of thermodynamics, however, the conference came up with another theory, unproved, which they called 'negentropy'. Scientists needed to believe that there was increasing complexity with random mutation. Dr. Cook's efforts in this area have been devoted to demonstrating that 'negentropy' was a fallacious concept. After these beginnings, Dr. Cook had delved deeply into the area of science and religion and had written bulletins, pamphlets, scientific articles, and three books in this area, of which two - Prehistory and Earth Models, and Scientific Prehistory - are almost exclusively scientific with religious implications. The third, Science and Mormonism, co-authored with M. Garfield Cook, openly describes both viewpoints in detail. A characteristic of these writings is that they deal extensively with experimental fact. Englishman Alasdair Beal, in a review of Prehistory and Earth Models described Cook's writings as a creationist, indicating that his approach was "intelligent and restrained." These special scientific and religious interests have been for Dr. Cook a consuming interest and life's work, propelled by a deep focus and almost religious belief in the designated purpose of his life. Dr. Cook had published over two hundred scientific articles in leading journals in the fields of explosives, solid-state and plasma physics, prehistory, surface chemistry, universal gravitation, electrochemistry, science and religion. He had five articles published on thermo-electrochemistry of aqueous solutions in the Journal of the American Chemical Society. He had also written six books in the field of explosives, including The Science of Industrial Explosives, The Science of High Explosives, ACS monograph No.139, and chapters in three other books. The diversity of Dr. Cook's experimental, theoretical work and writings is evident, but he has been recognized primarily for his development of the new field of slurry explosives, boosters, and pump trucks for their bulk delivery. This has contributed enormously to the cost effectiveness and safety of the industry by replacing unsafe dynamite as a primary product. Dr. Cook patented over one hundred inventions in the field of explosives, and received several awards in recognition of these contributions, among which are the Loomis Award from Yale University in 1937, the Utah Award from the American Chemical Society in 1961, the Nitro-Nobel Gold Medallion from the Swedish Academy, Stockholm in 1968; the E.V. Murphree Award in Industrial and Engineering Chemistry by the American Chemical Society in 1968; the Directors Award from the International Society of Explosive Specialists; the Chemical Pioneer Award by the American Institute of Chemists in 1973; the Distinguished Service Award from the International Society of Explosives Engineers in 1991 and the John A. Ulrich Meritorious Service Award from the American Defense Preparedness Association, Picatinny Arsenal, New Jersey. Dr. Cook was a signer of the Anti-Global Warming Petition. Steven T. Cook M.Div.

Afterwards, he began teaching at Bryan College. He received a Ph.D. in English from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, in 1971.
A publishing project on his agenda is a book or play about the Scopes Trial. That legal conflict in 1925 was one of the events which led five years later to the opening of Willima Jennings Bryan University - now Bryan College and has become one of Dr. Cornelius' areas of special study. He put some of his thoughts into the form of a newspaper article, which was published by the Atlantic Journal and Constitution in 1978, the first of more than a dozen published articles about the case.
His studies about Bryan and the Scopes Trial had led to his service as consultant and several on-camera commentator for national television productions about the case. He has been featured on PBS, background information for the History Channel and Court television productions on the trial in the past several years. Dr. Ed Larson, author of the 1997 Pulitzer Prize-winning book on the Scopes Trial, drew on Dr. Cornelius' knowledge of the event as he was researching the book. Allen B. Cornell
