Awards

Congratulations to Dr. Richard Wallace who was presented the highly coveted Gardner Middlebrook Award by the Mycobacterial Division of the American Society for Microbiology. The Gardner Middlebrook Award honors scientists who have made significant lifetime contributions in the study, diagnosis, and treatment of mycobacteria. Only a small cadre of microbiologists are chosen by their peers to receive this international award. This award was presented at the National Meeting of the American Society for Microbiology in Los Angeles, California on May 23, 2000.

Dr. Wallace was chosen as the first recipient of the John W. Middleton, M.D. Lectureship in Pulmonary Medicine from the Division of Pulmonary & Critical Care Medicine and Family of John W. Middleton, M.D. at the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB) in Galveston, TX. This resulted in a special plaque, an honorarium, and a special dinner with the family of Dr. Middleton. The inaugural lecture was presented at UTMB on March 31, 2000.

Dr. Wallace was chosen as the Sir MacFarlane Burnet speaker for the 2002 International Meeting of the Australasian Society for Infectious Diseases held near Adelaide, South Australia..

Dr. Wallace was made a lifetime honorary member of the Australasian Society for Infectious Diseases in April 2002.

Dr. Wallace was also chosen as the Divisional Lecturer for the Mycobacteriology Division of the American Society for Microbiology at the National meeting held in Salt Lake City, Utah in May 2002.

CSS: This specification defines Cascading Style Sheets, level 2 (CSS2). CSS2 is a style sheet language that allows authors and users to attach style (e.g., fonts, spacing, and aural cues) to structured documents (e.g., HTML documents and XML applications). By separating the presentation style of documents from the content of documents, CSS2 simplifies Web authoring and site maintenance.
XHTML 1.1: This Recommendation defines a new XHTML document type that is based upon the module framework and modules defined in Modularization of XHTML [XHTMLMOD]. The purpose of this document type is to serve as the basis for future extended XHTML 'family' document types, and to provide a consistent, forward-looking document type cleanly separated from the deprecated, legacy functionality of HTML 4 [HTML4] that was brought forward into the XHTML 1.0 [XHTML1] document types. This document type is essentially a reformulation of XHTML 1.0 Strict using XHTML Modules. This means that many facilities available in other XHTML Family document types (e.g., XHTML Frames) are not available in this document type. These other facilities are available through modules defined in Modularization of XHTML, and document authors are free to define document types based upon XHTML 1.1 that use these facilities (see [XHTMLMOD] for information on creating new document types).
WAI-AAA: These guidelines explain how to make Web content accessible to people with disabilities. The guidelines are intended for all Web content developers (page authors and site designers) and for developers of authoring tools. The primary goal of these guidelines is to promote accessibility. However, following them will also make Web content more available to all users, whatever user agent they are using (e.g., desktop browser, voice browser, mobile phone, automobile-based personal computer, etc.) or constraints they may be operating under (e.g., noisy surroundings, under- or over-illuminated rooms, in a hands-free environment, etc.). Following these guidelines will also help people find information on the Web more quickly. These guidelines do not discourage content developers from using images, video, etc., but rather explain how to make multimedia content more accessible to a wide audience.
