Acknowledgments
We end this News Report by expressing our appreciation to attendees of the 2012 Conference and Seminar for contributing to discussions on various aspects of photosynthesis and advancing the frontiers of science. We thank Richard Debus and David Kramer for their efforts as Chair and Vice-chair. For the description on the Awardees, we are grateful to Brandon Greene, Katrin Linke, Elisabet Romero and Anna Schneider for providing us information on their academic activities. We also thank Elmars Krausz and Warwick Hillier for sharing some of their photographs with us as well as the GRC for allowing us use of the 2012 group photograph (Fig. 1). Most of the photographs presented here were taken, and arranged into panels, by Gennady Ananyev. Govindjee thanks Ineke Ravesloot (Springer, Dordrecht, The Netherlands) for mailing the books to be given to the Awardees, and Alice Haddy (The University of North Carolina at Greensboro) for bringing these books to the conference site.
