The Rector’s
welcome
On behalf of
everyone at
Imperial, I am
delighted to
welcome our
graduands and
their guests to
Imperial for this day of celebration.
Graduation ceremonies are high points
in the College’s calendar, one of only a
handful of days during the year on which
the bells of the Queen’s Tower are rung,
and your presence on our campus creates
a tangible sense of occasion. Today we will
see nearly 2,000 graduates walk across
the stage of the Royal Albert Hall watched
by around 4,000 guests. Our thanks go
to you all for being here so that we can
congratulate our high achieving students
and share the pride of their families and
friends, whose support contributes so
much to their success.
All study at Imperial is demanding, but a
postgraduate degree in particular requires
sustained hard work, and critical and
creative thinking. The skills and knowledge
you have developed during your time here
are both broad and deep, and will be in
great demand as you take the next steps
in your career. Wherever you go from here,
I hope that you will continue to think of
yourselves as members of the worldwide
Imperial family and keep in touch.
This is the first graduation day I will attend
as Imperial’s Rector and I know it will
be a moving experience to see firsthand
the enormity of what Imperial does for
individuals and for society at large. You,
I hope, have benefited hugely from your
time here and will continue to do so as
your careers progress. Perhaps even more
importantly the world will benefit from
your intellectual curiosity and your drive to
apply your knowledge, characteristics that
I hope Imperial has instilled and nurtured.
It goes without saying that the College
is immeasurably better for your having
been here, and I thank you for choosing to
pursue your studies with us.
This day is ultimately about your hard
efforts and high achievements, and I
hope you enjoy it. Whatever your next
destination, our best wishes go with you.
Warm regards,
Sir Keith O’Nions

Imperial
past and present
e
A new chapter in the
College’s history began
with the celebration of
Imperial’s 100th birthday in 2007
and its new status as an independent
university. Today’s Postgraduate
Awards recognise the continuing
high achievement of Imperial’s
postgraduate students.
Imperial currently attracts over
13,000 students and 6,000 staff of
the highest international quality
and has a reputation worldwide for
excellence in teaching and research.
The College began its journey towards
its current position as the world’s fifth
best university (as rated by the 2007
Times Higher Education Supplement
university rankings) a century ago with
just 600 students and 12 professors.
The College was founded in July
1907 from the merger of three great
nineteenth century institutions — the
Royal College of Science, the City and
Guilds College and the Royal School of
Mines. Mergers in the late twentieth
century with St Mary’s Hospital Medical
School, the National Heart and Lung
Institute, the Charing Cross and
Westminster Medical School, the Royal
Postgraduate Medical School, Wye
College and the Kennedy Institute of
Rheumatology completed the formation
of the present Imperial College London.
Imperial’s founding charter created
an institution “…to give the highest
specialised instruction and to provide
the fullest equipment for the most
advanced training and research in
various branches of science especially
in its application to industry”. This
commitment to apply Imperial’s
research for the benefit of all has
been a constant theme throughout
the College’s history, and holds strong
today with current focuses including
interdisciplinary collaborations
to tackle climate change, and
mathematical modelling to predict
and control the spread of infectious
diseases, such as avian flu.
and two Fields Medallists, Imperial’s
contribution to society during its
last century has been immense.
Inventions and innovations include the
discovery of penicillin, the development
of holography and the foundations of
fibre optics.
Famous names associated with Imperial
include T.H. Huxley, one of the greatest
scientists of the nineteenth century;
the author H.G. Wells; joint Nobel Prize
winners, Sir Alexander Fleming and Sir
Ernst Chain, discoverers of penicillin;
W.E. Dalby, the internationally
renowned railway engineer; W.H.
Perkin, inventor of mauveine, the first
aniline dye that led to the development
of the synthetic chemical industry;
Sir Almroth Wright, a pioneer of
vaccination; Eric Laithwaite, known
for his development of magnetically
levitated (maglev) high-speed trains;
and George Finch who, in 1922, was
able to climb higher than any previous
mountaineer due to his pioneering work
on oxygen and breathing apparatus.
Until 1955, Imperial’s graduation
ceremonies took place in the Great Hall
of the University of London, which was
then located in the Imperial Institute
at the heart of the South Kensington
Campus. Before each ceremony, a
formal College procession filed from
Prince Consort Road to the Great Hall
of the Institute. All that remains of the
Imperial Institute today is the Queen’s
Tower, saved from demolition in the
late 1960s.
The first College graduation ceremony
in the Royal Albert Hall was held on
26 October 1955. The day’s events
commemorated the 1945 centenary
of the Royal College of Science; the
oldest forerunner of Imperial. The
RCS centenary was attended by King
George VI and Queen Elizabeth and
its anniversary became known as
Commemoration Day in honour of
their visit.
Since the College’s creation, over
145,000 of the brightest students in
the world have been educated by such
authorities in their subjects. Today, the
College attracts students from over 150
countries across the globe, and has
a network of international links and
collaborations with many of the world’s
top universities.
Imperial undergraduates and
postgraduates were all presented at the
same ceremony in the Royal Albert Hall
on Commemoration Day each October
until 1996, when a new postgraduate
ceremony was added in May. In 2007,
as part of the Centenary celebrations,
an additional graduation ceremony was
held in Singapore to reflect the large
number of students coming to Imperial
from Asia.
The College crest
The Imperial mace
The College coat of arms, which
incorporates the royal coat of arms,
was assigned by royal warrant dated
6 June 1908. The motto was devised
by Imperial’s Governing Body with
the name as well as the purpose of
the College in mind and perhaps
drawing ‘decus et tutamen’ from line
262 of Book V of Virgil’s Aeneid. The
translation appropriate to the spirit
of the age and the intentions of the
founders is “scientific knowledge, the
crowning glory and the safeguard of
the empire”.
Imperial’s graduation ceremonies see
the procession of the Imperial mace,
a generous gift from the Goldsmiths’
Company which marked Imperial
becoming a university in its own right
and the award of its new charter by
Her Majesty The Queen in 2007. First
used in 2009, the mace is made of
silver and gilt, and weighs 7.1 kg. It
was made by craftsmen from Padgham
and Putland of Kent and its intricate
workings incorporate the College crest
and motto.

among our current academic staff, and
distinguished past members of the
College including 14 Nobel laureates

Wednesday 5 May 2010 • Royal Albert Hall
The history of our academic dress
The robes our graduates wear today have
their origin in the everyday dress of the
Middle Ages which consisted of a tunic
and cloak and, to protect the head and
shoulders, a hood. The ancient universities
in Europe began as communities of scholars
and teachers in religious schools around
great cathedrals or monasteries. Students
there were clerics, who would have worn
clothing similar to that of everyone else at
the time. As fashions in the world changed,
the church and universities retained their
cloaks which became the main item of
academic dress.
For centuries, the shape of a university
robe’s sleeve denoted the degree attained
by its wearer. However, the advent of
many new universities, each requiring an
individual system of robes, brought changes
that continue being made to the present
day. Imperial College London graduates
wore University of London academic
dress until 2007. To reflect its status as
an independent university, new robes
were designed and today’s graduation
ceremonies have graduates wearing both
Imperial and University of London robes.
See page 5 for more details of the robes
being worn.

May every young scientist
remember... and not fail to keep his eyes open
for the possibility that an irritating failure of
his apparatus to give consistent results may
once or twice in a lifetime conceal an important
discovery.”
— P.M.S. Blackett FRS, Nobel laureate
and Head of the Department of Physics at Imperial from 1953–63

recent imperial
news
New Reach Out Lab gives school
pupils a taste of science
Data reveals reason for
dinosaur demise
Some morbidly obese people
missing skinny genes
Universities should be directly
enthusing schoolchildren about
science and helping to address the
lack of opportunities they have to
do experiments first hand, said Lord
Robert Winston, Imperial’s Professor
of Science and Society, at the official
opening of the College’s new Reach
Out Lab in March 2010. The high tech,
multidisciplinary space, which was
developed specifically for visiting
school pupils, has so far seen over
1,500 visitors aged between seven and
18 since September 2009. Lord Winston
added: “There’s a wow factor about the
laboratory and it’s immediately obvious
as soon as you walk in that these kids
are really enjoying the science.”
The mass extinction that killed off
dinosaurs and more than half of
Earth’s other species was caused
by an asteroid collision and not
massive volcanic activity, a panel of
41 international experts, including
Imperial researchers, concluded in
March 2010, after reviewing 20 years
of research. Scientists were previously
divided over whether the CretaceousTertiary extinction around 65 million
years ago was caused by an asteroid
hitting Earth at Chicxulub, Mexico, or
by volcanic activity in the Deccan Trans,
India, which lasted for 1.5 million years.
However, a comprehensive analysis of
the evidence published in Science led
the panel to conclude that an asteroid
impact is the only plausible explanation
for the rapid destruction of marine and
land ecosystems that occurred.
A small but significant proportion of
morbidly obese people are missing
a section of their DNA containing
approximately 30 genes, according
to Imperial-led research published
in Nature in February 2010. The
researchers from Imperial and 10 other
European centres do not yet know
the function of the missing genes, but
previous research has suggested that
some of them may be associated with
delayed development, autism and
schizophrenia. The team believes that
there are many more obesity-causing
genetic mutations yet to be found.
Imperial physicist takes top Welsh
science role
Professor John Harries of the
Department of Physics was announced
in February 2010 as the new Chief
Scientific Advisor for Wales by the
Welsh Assembly Government. A
renowned atmospheric physicist,
Professor Harries is particularly known
for leading the team that produced the
first direct observational evidence of
an increase in the Earth’s greenhouse
effect between 1970 and 1997. His
appointment makes him the second
current chief scientific advisor at
the College, joining Professor John
Beddington who became advisor to the
UK government in October 2007.
Out but not down: University
Challenge team makes it to
semi finals
A series of decisive victories won
Imperial’s University Challenge team
rare praise from Jeremy Paxman and a
devoted Twitter following before being
knocked out of the competition in the
semi finals in March 2010. Speaking
after losing the team’s last match
against St John’s, Oxford, team captain
Gilead Amit described host Paxman as
“really friendly”, adding: “I even tried to
get him to sign a copy of the Daily Mail
for the ironic value, but he refused.”

Immune cells use ‘death bungee’
to kill dangerous cells
Immune cells use a bungee-like
nanotube to destroy dangerous cells
that could otherwise escape them,
says Imperial research published in the
Proceedings of the National Academy
of Sciences in March 2010. Natural
killer (NK) cells were previously known
to kill cells by attaching to them and
passing on toxic molecules. The new
research now shows that NK cells can
even attack targets that try to escape
by moving away by holding them with a
membrane nanotube and either pulling
them back into direct contact to be
killed or killing them from a distance.
Playing ‘Pong’ with the blink
of an eye
An open source computer game
operated by eye movements has been
developed by Imperial undergraduates,
who hope it will allow people with
severe physical disabilities to become
gamers for the first time. Players
wear glasses containing an infrared
light and a webcam that records
their eye movement and relays it to a
laptop to play the simple bat and ball
game ‘Pong’. The team announced in
March 2010 that it believes that the
technology could be adapted to create
more sophisticated games and, in the
long term, even wheelchairs controlled
by eye movements.

New material is breakthrough
in magnetism
A structure that acts like a single
pole of a magnet has been created by
researchers at Imperial, in a feat that
has evaded scientists for decades.
The team says that their research,
published in Nature Physics in
April 2010, takes them a step closer
to isolating a ‘magnetic monopole’
– either the north or south pole of a
magnet. Scientists have long theorised
that this must be possible but have
been unable to show it in experiments.
In the newly created material, nanosized magnets are arranged in a
honeycomb structure, enabling it to act
like a magnetic monopole.

Fellows
K
Mr Ram Gidoomal
Mr Lim Chuan Poh
A Fellowship of the College is the highest award Imperial can bestow on individuals
judged to be persons of distinction and persons who have rendered significant
services to the College or to the community.
Mr Ram Gidoomal
Mr Lim Chuan Poh
Lady Wolfson of Marylebone
Ram Gidoomal is a talented business
leader and entrepreneur, an energetic
philanthropist and an enthusiastic
promoter of civic responsibility.
Lim Chuan Poh has made enormous
contributions to science and education
in Singapore and internationally
through senior roles in both the Agency
for Science, Technology and Research
(A*STAR) and the Ministry of Education.
Lady Wolfson became a Trustee of the
Wolfson Foundation in 1992, following
her marriage to Lord Wolfson of
Marylebone in 1991.
As an Asian refugee from Kenya, he
first arrived in the UK in 1967 at the
age of 16 and shortly after won a place
at Imperial College London to study
physics. He graduated in 1971 and
remained at the College as a Research
Assistant until 1975, when he decided
to focus instead on building a career
in business. He has maintained a long
connection with the College, sitting
on its governing Court and Council,
and was the first chair of the Research
Ethics Committee and the Student
Trustee Board.
After leaving Imperial he worked for
the multinational company Inlaks,
becoming Deputy Group Chief Executive
in 1978 and UK Group Chief Executive
in 1985, and it was a business trip to
Mumbai in this role that was the trigger
for setting up his first charity. The
Christmas Cracker Charitable Trust was
founded in 1989 and mobilised 50,000
teenagers to raise over £5 million
during the subsequent eight years for
people suffering from the effects of
poverty in developing countries.
Many other charitable endeavours
followed, including the South Asian
Development Partnership, founded
in 1991 to encourage entrepreneurial
activities in the UK and South Asia,
Citylife, which helps disadvantaged
people in the UK to find jobs and
housing, and the Employability
Forum, set up to help refugees to find
employment.
Lady Wolfson
of Marylebone
In addition to his business and
charitable success, Mr Gidoomal stood
in the 2000 and 2004 London Mayoral
elections, polling around 100,000 votes
on each occasion.
He was awarded the CBE for services
to the business community and race
relations in 1998.
8
As Chair of A*STAR, a position he has
held since April 2007, he leads an
international community of scientists
with the mission of carrying out worldclass research, translating findings
into applications that have both social
and economic value and nurturing the
next generation of scientists. He was
previously A*STAR’s Deputy Chair and
was a board member of its Biomedical
Research Council since 2004.
Prior to moving to A*STAR, Mr Lim
was Permanent Secretary at the
Ministry of Education, a post he held
from July 2003. Major successes in
this role include transforming the
publicly funded universities into
Autonomous Universities and reviewing
the university research framework
to create the Academic Research
Council and a new Academic Research
Funding Framework. He is a strong
supporter of international collaboration
between leading research-intensive
universities, in particular guiding
the establishment of the NUS-Duke
Graduate Medical School.
Before turning his talents to science
and education, he pursued a successful
23-year career with the Singapore
Armed Forces, rising to the positions of
Chief of the Army and then Chief of the
Defence Force from 1998 to 2003.
He is a mathematics graduate of
Cambridge University, and also
attended Harvard Business School to
complete the Advanced Management
Programme in 2003.
He was named one of Science
magazine’s ‘people to watch’ in 2009,
and has received a number of awards
in Singapore and internationally for his
contribution to science, education and
the military.

1998, the Rose Payne Distinguished
Scientist award in 1998, the Sheikh
Hamdan Award in 2000, the Ambuj
Nath Bose Prize, Royal College of
Physicians, in 2001, and Imperial’s
Ernst Chain Prize and the Nature/NESTA
Award for Lifetime Mentoring in 2006.
He was knighted in 2008 for services to
medical science.
His interest in applying engineering
to the human body was stimulated
when, while studying heat transfer to
space vehicles re-entering the Earth’s
atmosphere, he was asked to help
investigate the effects of lift-off on
astronauts. He subsequently spent a
year as a visiting professor at Imperial
College London with the celebrated
bioengineer Professor Colin Caro, and
continued to pursue his interest in
biomedical engineering on returning
to Ohio.
In 1979 Professor Nerem moved to the
University of Houston, where he served
as Professor and Chairman of the
Department of Mechanical Engineering.
He then took up the Parker H. Petit
Distinguished Chair for Engineering
in Medicine at Georgia Tech in 1987,
where he also founded and directed the
Petit Institute for Bioengineering and
Bioscience and the Georgia Tech/Emory
Centre for the Engineering of Living
Tissues in 1998.
He was the founding President of the
American Institute of Medical and
Biological Engineering, and a past
President of the International Union
for Physical and Engineering Sciences
in Medicine and the International
Federation for Medical and Biological
Engineering. He is a member of the
US National Academy of Engineering
and of the Institute of Medicine of the
US National Academy of Sciences. He
is also an Honorary Fellow of the UK’s
Institution of Mechanical Engineers.
Wednesday 5 May 2010 • Royal Albert Hall
As Parliamentary Under-Secretary of
State with responsibility for science and
innovation at the Department for Trade
and Industry, he earned the respect of
researchers for his genuine passion for
science and technology.
He acted as a high profile spokesperson
for science on issues such as nuclear
power, stem cell research and the use
of animals in research, and his time as
minister from 1998 to 2006 covered a
period of unprecedented government
investment in science.
Professor
Sir Andrew McMichael
His commitment to bettering society
through science, technology and
medicine led him to found the Gatsby
Charitable Foundation in 1967.
Since then it has awarded around
£500 million to support work in fields
such as technical education, plant
science and mental health.
High profile projects advanced by
the Foundation include the Gatsby
Computational Neuroscience Unit at
UCL, the Sainsbury Laboratory for
Plant Molecular Pathology in Norwich,
Sainsbury Management Fellowships
for UK Engineers, and the Institute for
Government, which supports the skills
development of senior civil servants
and politicians.
Lord Sainsbury also has extensive
business experience in the family’s
supermarket chain, as Finance Director
from 1973–90, Deputy Chairman
from 1988–92 and Chairman from
1992–98. Prior to that, he read history
and psychology at King’s College,
Cambridge, and gained an MBA from
the Columbia Graduate School of
Business in 1971.
Professor
Robert M. Nerem
Lord Sainsbury
of Turville
He was created a life peer in 1997.

I have been trying to

may have an astonishing influence
and, if I may offer advice to the
young laboratory worker, it
would be this – never to neglect
an extraordinary appearance or

A common fallacy...
to which science is subjected
today is that it claims certainty,
infallibility and complete
emotional objectivity. It would be
more nearly true to say that it is
based upon wonder, adventure and
hope.”
— Sir Cyril Hinshelwood OM PRS,
Nobel laureate and Senior Research Fellow
at Imperial, 1964–67
