TIME.DEPENDENT STRUCTURE & CONTROL OF ARTERIAL BP INTRODUC'rlON: Cardiovascular diseases constitute the leadin.g causes of dea-th~ff-~a~ United States: far beyond the ~number of deaths due to cancer, Approximately one.half the-cardiovascular, deaths is a consequence of high blood pressure (BP) (1).~ Thus, hypertension constitu'tesa significant medical and. social problem. !t is the subject of an extensive amount Of basic research devoted to mechanisms as well as clinical trials of medications devoted to its control. Although meaningful advances have oc.eurred in understanding the physiology of BP regulation by neural, cardiovascular, renal, and hormonal mechanisms, our work is far from complete. Research into themeehanisms of BP maintenance in health and disease states such as hypertension is .also being strongly pursued. On the other hand, the facets and mechanisms 6f BP regulation in relation to time, especially in relationship to parahologieal and therapeutic implications, have received comparably little scientific attention until recently. It, has become increasingly evident, especially through the applieation of ambulatory BP monitoring technology (2), that BP varies in a time-dependent fashion; the temporal organization of BP variability .encompasses a number of factors and mechanisms with specific time courses. Most scientists have focused on .circadian (24- hour) and to some extent seasonal components of BP variability. Others have been concerned with ultradian components having periodicities of less than 24 hours (4-6). Recently, there has been an appreciation of the analogous temporal structure of cardiovascular ~funetions as it relates to temporal patterns in pathological cardiovascular events (for review see ref. 7). In this regard, there has been a surge of scientific interest in.the field of medical chronobiology as it pertains to cardiovascular disease, including hype~___.m~.on. Moreover, there is growing appreciation for the role of circadian and other rhythms on the pharmacokinetics (chronokinetics) and pharmacodynamics (chronesthesy) of antihypermnsive medications. Intriguingly enough, the time course of drug absorption and distribution need not coincide.withthe time course of drug effects on. BP (7). This phenomenon, which is referred to chronesthesy, infers that drug effect is not simply a result of drug concentration per se: it can be dependent on a set of mechanisms which are also variable in time and which-determine therapeutic results. A fascinating newfield of research known as chronopharmacology (the study of biological rhythms and medications) has great clinical relevance, considering the aforementioned medical and social impacts of hypertension and cardiovascular accidents which all exhibit very .specific time patterns. The investigation of BP regulation and. the underlying mechanisms must include the role of biological rhythms. and other temporal factors which are influential. The results of such studies have clinical implications, especially in regard to the optimization of therapeutic interventions by timing antihypertensive medications to circadian or other biological rhythms .(chronotherapeutics). Complete understanding of the chronobiologic and other mechanisms of BP rhythms in essential or secondary hypertension .is still sought. Interest in the chronotherapy of hypertension is only in its infant. The conference which is being held. in Ferrara, Italy September, 1995 is intended to stimulate multi-disciplinary scientific inquiry into the ehronobiology .and chronotherapy of hypertension. ~The proceedings of the New York Academy of Sciences conference, "Time, Dependent Structure and Control of Arterial Blood Pressure" is anticipated to have broad appeal since the subject matter explores topics of certain interest to both basic and applied scientists - physiologists, pharmacologists, clinicians, epidemiologis~, biostatisticians, drug delivery and other pharmaceutical scientists plu.~.~egu!at0ry personnel. CONFERENCE TOPICS AND ISSUES: Five important topics and issues are to be addressed in depth at during the conference.

member.~. "l-he volume is inmnded to serve both as a compendium of the present knowledge and sr.imutu~ for RELATED N~.ETINGS: ...... To our knowledge, during the last {'1992) and the Sixth .(199~,) Inmrnmional Conference of Chronopharra~ology and Chronothempeudcs which took place at the~ Amelia Island Plantation Confer~nce Center, near .lm:~onville, Florida. under the.auspices of the Inmmational Society of Chronobioiogy, addressed the chronopharmacology and ~chronoff~empy of antihyperrensive medications to a limi~d degree. Only marginal consideration .wa.~ given to the issues of BP rhythms and their control. The Society for Research on Biological Pdiythrm has also been gathering in Am*-tia Island for it~ biannual meeting, in 1992 and 1994, focusing mainly on non-.clinical aspecr.~ of chronobioto.gy.- The meetings of the societies of hypermnsion and related fields, do include BP monitoring and/or BP control: however-~ the conference we propose is unique in its being focused not .only on BP monitoring and BP variability, but on the specific matmrs and mechanisms relating to the chronobiology and ehronotherapeuti:s of BP and hypertension. In conclusion, no other meeting ,or session held. during the last .three year5 (or scheduled for next year) has addressed the conference .topic. Hence, researchers from various discipiin~s concerned with BP regulation and hypertension should .find this conference unique~ and of great scientific interest. (6)

,The New. York-, Ac.ademy of Sciences FoundinqT Membership~ and Independence The Academy, founded in 1817, ~is now in its 1.79th year. It is the third oldest scientific society in Amedca andone of New York City's oldest and ._roost endudng cultural institutions. The Academy's mission includes complimentary commitments to science and. society through ,leadership in both ideas and in. programs of action. In service to science, it will sharpen its efforts to facilitate exchanges among scientists in New York and around the wodd. In service to society, it is expanding its activities in public communication, policy-debate, and science education to illuminate and improve the quality,timeliness, and reliability of contributions .of science to global social and economic progress.- Today, it is an international.organization with over 43,500 members .in more than 150 countries-nearly fifty percent of whom reside outside the United States. With a balanced annual operating budget of just under $10 million, and little governmental support, the Academy has an unusual degree of independence. Plans for the 1990s In December 1993, the Academy's Board of Governors adopted a strategic plan that builds on and expands the Academy's position at the intersection of science, business, education, health care, and government. In December 1994, the Plans were reviewed and updated with clear priorities and action plans. Conferences and Publications Approximately 20-30 scientific conferences are held annually in locations around the wodd. A new emphasis on presenting the metropolitan region as a global science .and technology center is resulting in more conferences, being scheduled in New York. Conference proceedings are published in the Academy's Annals, which are among-the oldest (172 years) and most frequently quoted sources of scientific research, About 30Annals are distributed each year to more than 745 libraries and to tho'usands of scientists and engineers worldwide. Additionally, the Academy publishes The Sciences, a bi-monthly magazine with a circulation Of almost 75,000. The Sciences has earned many national awards for scientific and artistic distinction in presenting scientific information to an educated lay public. W'~h a lead grant from the Esther A. and Joseph Klingenstein Fund, the Academy will issue a sedes of .publications on science policy issues drawn from meetings .of. its Science, Policy Association. Science Policy and Economic Development~ Since 1985, the Academy has sponsored a Science Policy Association that brings together leaders of business, education, philanthropy, the-professions, policy, makers, government officials, scientists, and engineers to discuss policy-related issues at the intersection of science, technology, education, and economic development. Scienceand technology serving economic development--in the New York region as well as in national and global policy-is a rising pdority of the Academy. Through policy analysis and through outreach, prestige, and the ability to convene experts from a vadety of disciplines, the Academy aims to share experiences, problems, and solutions. K-12 Science and Math Education The Academy's programs support science teachers and teaching in the City~s-and the region's-public, private; and parochial~ schools. They encourage about 3,000 students and teachers to do science, provide internships in corporate,=govemment, and other laboratories, encourage achievement through the Academy's six annual Science and Technology Expos for students in grades 5-12, and seek to advance public awareness of science, technology, and issues such as infrastructure and competitiveness. The Academy recently published the. first directory of professional science and educational development opportunities for science teachers and is looking =to design and implement.a new series of initiatives for teachers. Our education priorities are motivation and presentation of opportunities and initiatives leading to a more scientifically literate and prepared workforce. We bring the talents of scientists, social scientists, and engineers to.the K-12 education process as mentors for students and teachers, and as catalysts for improvement and change in science education in the City's public schools~ A Junior Academy for high schoo.I students was establishedjn---¢963 and now has about 1 ;000 members.

Science and Engineering Across Disciplines Differing=from traditional professional organizations, the Academy seeks to function at the intersection of disciplines and issues. :Through sections in twenty-four scie.ntlfic and engineering areas, the Academy provides continuing education opportunities whereby scientists meet with the leaders in their, and other fields. More than 180 meetings of scientists and engineers are held annually atthe Academy's headquarters. Sections on Science Education., and on Women in Science, cross all disciplinary boundaries to focus on opportunities and special needs in these crucial areas. Section meetings are open to the public without charge; The Lyceum Club ~ In 1993, the Academy sponsored the foundingof the Lyceum Club, a program for retired .and semi-retired Academy members that provides daytime discussion programming and a talent bank of highly skilled individuals whose services are available to school, non-profit, for-profit, and government agencies. Human Rlqhts of Scientists The Academy has an active program which promotes the human rights of scientists; physicians;-engineersl= and educators irrespective of the political or economic policies of the countries in whiohsuch individuals reside. The Academy ~was credited by Andrei Sakharov and Fang Lizhi with coordinating the international pressure that led to.. their reiease.~ Both made their first U.S. appearances at theAcademy. Today, w~th the Committee of Concerned Scientists, the Academy is assisting emigree scientists from the former Soviet Union, the Peoples' Republic of China: and other countries to adjust to and find positions in the U.S. while simultaneously working on behalf of scientists worldwide to ensure the free pursuit of scientific careers and free expression; And we continue to work on behalf of scientists such as Vii Mirzayanov of Russia, whose work to eliminate chemical weapons testing has proved the role of.the new Russian constitution. The Gallery of Art and Science ~ In fall, 1994; the Academy formalized its longstanding exhibition program of artand science with the appointment of a curator and establishment of an alliance with the State .University of New York at Binghampton. The opening exhibition, Madness in America, received an enthusiastic and extensive review in The New York Times. Programs change throughout the year; the public is invited without charge.. ~ The New York Academy Of Sciences - orqanization, support, and leadership The New York Academy of .Sciences is located at Two EastSixty-third Street, New York, New York. Open to all who. are interested in science, it-is a non-profit 501(c)(3) supported by membership dues, publication and .magazine sales, and from the gifts of corporations, foundations, members, and friends around the wodd, It sponsors a thriving Corporate Membership program, and collaborates with corporation, foundations, individuals, and other organizations in presenting science-based programs for the public good, The Academy has a Board of Govemors of distinguishe~! individuals from all sectors. The Board, and the Academy's president, chief executive officer, and staff benefit strongly from the President's Council which is comprised of individuals, of extraordinary, accomplishment and with broad expertise who are chosen for their leadership in,fields important to the Academy's mission. Academy committees draw heavily on leaders from business, education, and the non-profit sector, advancing the Academy's work as thecenter where people, ideas, and issues in science and. technology-based social and economic development converge.

Accounting for Contributions and Financial Statement Display In 2Iune 19.94, the F'mancial-Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. I 16, Accounting for Contributions Received and Contributions- Made ("SFAS 116"), and Statement .of Financial Aeeotmting Standards No: 117, Financial Statements of Not-for-Profit Organizations ("SFAS 1 I7"). SFAS 116 establishes standards of accounting forcontributions and applies to all entities that receive or make contributions. Among other things, SFAS 116 requires.contributions. received and unconditional promises to give to be recognized as revenue in the period re- ceived at their fair values. Conditional promises to give arc.to be recognized when the.y become unconditional; that is, when the conditions are substaudally met. SFAS 117 establishes broad standards for reporting information in" general-purpose ex- ternal financial statements issued by not-for-profit organizations, and reqitires that all not- for-profit organizations provide a statement of financial position, a statement of activities, a~d a statement of cash flows that focus on the entity.as a whole. Amounts related to an organization's financial position and activities are to be repotted in three elasses of net assetswpermanently restricted, temporarily restricted, and unrestricted. SFAS 116 and 117 wLI1 be effective no later than for the Academy's fiscal year ending June 30, 1996. Management believes that SFAS 116 and 117 wiHnot have an adverse impact On its financial position, although SFAS 117 will require a change in the presen- .tar.ion of its fmanci~ statements. (38) .11
