The courtyard (or light well]] between the building and the northeastern side wing of No. 54 is extremely narrow, testifying to how Lorentzen's 1840s redevelopment of the site made an effort to make the most out of the site. Today Overgaden Oven Vamdet | 1787 census. Andreas Buntzen Jr. was still living with his parents in the building at the 1801 census. His sister had married the military officer Frederik (Friederich) Julius Christian de Saint-Aubain. (1754–1819) in 1798 and they were now residing in an apartment at the corner of Torvegade and Strandgade. On 6 April 1800, Buntzen Jr. was wed to Camilla Cécilie Victoire Du Puy (1790–1871). She was a daughter of the composer Edouard Du Puy (c. 1770–1822) and the actress Julie Henriette Pauline Moulineuf (aka Montroze, died 1833). The family's property was listed as No. 177 in the new cadastre of 1806. Ownership of it passed to Andreas Buntzen Jr. following his father's feath in 1810. His and his wife's home was a lively meetingplace for members of the extensive Buntzen family. It was also frequented by some of the prominent cultural figures of the time, including Jens Baggesen, Thomasine Gyllembourg (née Buntzen, his cousin) and Peter Andreas Heiberg. Buntzen's nephew , who published his books under the pseudonum Carl Bernhard, has descripbed life in the building in Et år i København ("One Tear in Copenhagen"). Buntzen's trading firm ran into economic difficulties during the economic crisis that followed the war with England, culminating with its bankryptcy in 1820.

Peter Christian Abildgaard Holten, an employee at the Hambroske Møller, resided on the ground flor with the seamstress Karen Marie Hansen. H. P. Lorentzen's 1844-46 redevelopment project The property was acquired by in the middle of the 1840s. He had made a fortune on the production of silk hats and saw a lucretive business opportunity in investing his money in Copenhagen's booming property through densification of old low-density sites. The city had still not been allowed to develop outside its old bastioned fortification ring and new homes for the fast-growing population was therefore in very high demand. Lorentzen's redevelopment plans for the property were therefore aimed at exploiting the site to the utmost. In 1845, No. 177 was divided into No. 177 A (Overgaden Oven Vandet 54) and No. 166B (Dronningensgade 75). In 1846, he heightened the existing building along the canal to five storeys. He also constructed two new side wings, attached to the main wing via two secondary staircases, flanking a central courtyard. In 1846–147,he also used a strip of land along Bådsmandsstræde for the construction of four new five-storey apartment buildings. These buildings were converted into separate properties as No. 177 C (Overgaden Oven Vandet 56), No. 177 D (Bådsmandsstræde 10), No. 177 E (Bådsmandsstræde 12/Dronningensgade 79) and No. 177 F (Dronningensgade 77). No. 177 C contained a corner shop flanked by two apartments on the ground floor and two times two apartments on each of the upper floors.

that they were worried about Whāita continuing into their lands or that they had marriage ties with the Ngāti Kahu-pungapunga. Whāita defeated the Te Arawa forces that had entered Ngāti Kahu-pungapunga lands and pursued them into Te Arawa land, where however, his forces were routed and forced to flee for the Waikato River, with Te Arawa in pursuit. At Te Whana-a-Whāita ('The springing back of Whāita'), Whāita rallied the troops and defeated Te Arawa. This place remained the boundary between Tainui and Te Arawa thereafter. According to Gudgeon, Whāita's illness had prevented him from joining the expedition against Te Arawa, which he says was led by Tama-te-hura and reached Waikuta on the shores of Lake Rotorua before Te Arawa turned the force back, took Tama-te-hura prisoner, and killed Pipito. He says that the leader of the Arawan forces was Ariari-te-rangi, son of Hinemoa and Tūtānekai. In this account the Te Arawa pursued the Tainui forces all the way back to Te Whana-a-Whāita, where Whāita rallied them, as in Jones' version. Pohatu-roa The last of the Ngāti Kahu-pungapunga made their stand at Pōhatu-roa, a hill just west of modern Ātiamuri. Whāita and Wairangi's war-parties reunited and surrounded the hill. Eventually hunger sapped the defenders' strength and they were unable to deflect a Tainui assault, which captured the mountain. At this point there was a disagreement about what to do with the captured Ngāti Kahu-pungapunga – Tame-te-hura wanted to keep them as slaves, but Whāita insisted that they must all be killed, so that they would not return with Te Arawa support to reclaim the land. Jones agrees that all the Ngāti Kahu-pungapunga died, while Gudgeon speculates that they may have fled to join Te Arawa. Family Whāita had one son, Huiao, who was the father of Tū-irirangi who married a sister of Maniapoto, and one daughter, Hine-moana, who married Tūpito. His descendants, the Ngāti Whāita, have their marae at Ōngāroto, on the north bank of the Waikato River, a little west of Ātiamuri. Sources A detailed account of Whāita's exploits during the war was published by Walter Edward Gudgeon in the 1893 issue of the Journal of the Polynesian Society, with no indication of the sources on which it is based. A similar account is given by Pei Te Hurinui Jones, based on oral testimony given at the Maori Land Court at Cambridge in a dispute over ownership of the Waotū area. A similar account was given by Hōri Wirihana of Ngāti Kauwhata in evidence to the Maori | married Parahore or Purahore, rangatira of the Ngāti Kahu-pungapunga, who inhabited the upper banks of the Waikato River, from Putaruru to Atiamuri. Outbreak of war with Ngāti Kahu-pungapunga The people of Tainui desired the land of Ngāti Kahu-pungapunga, especially their two maunga manu ('bird mountains'), Whakamaru and Tū-aropaki (now site of Mokai Power Station). Because the people of Ngāti Kahu-pungapunga knew this, they resented their chieftain's wife, Korokore, especially when they were required to hand many of the birds that they caught over to her, so a group of them, led by Te Maru-huoko, gathered together and murdered Korokore at Waotū. Walter Edward Gudgeon also reports an alternative version, in which Whāita had eloped with Waiarohi, wife of Te Ruamano, a rangatira of Ngāti Waihakari and left her with the Ngāti Kahu-pungapunga for safekeeping only for them to murder her for some reason. One of Korokore's slaves escaped and brought news of this murder to Tame-te-hura, a cousin of Korokore. He passed the news on to Whāita at Wharepuhanga, who gathered a war party. He was joined by Tama-te-hura's brothers Upoko-iti and Pipito, as well as Wairangi, who may have been a brother of Tama-te-hura or Whāita. Invasion of Waotū The Tainui war-party marched past Maungatautari and attacked the local forts of Ngāti Kahu-pungapunga on the west side of the Waikato River. Then the war party split into two groups, which moved up the river on opposite sides. Wairangi and Upoko-iti stayed on the west side, while Whāita, Pipito, and Tama-te-hura crossed the Waikato River and advanced on the Waotū region, where Ngāti Kahu-pungapunga had three fortresses: Pirau-nui (a foothill of Matawhenua), Puke-tōtara / Ōmaru-o-aka, Pawa-iti, and Hōkio, which Whāita captured. From there, Ngāti Kahu-pungapunga fled south of Whakamaru, where they had two fortresses, Te-Ahi-pū and |

album was recorded on 11 November 2021, at The Belonging Co in Nashville, Tennessee. Ligertwood collaborated with Jason Ingram in handling the production of the album. It is her first solo album to be released under her married name (after previously going under the name Brooke Fraser), her first solo album since both Brutal Romantic (2014) and rejoining Hillsong Worship and her first to explore explicitly Christian and biblical themes. The album has been supported by the release of "A Thousand Hallelujahs" as the lead single. "A Thousand Hallelujahs" peaked at number 44 on the US Hot Christian Songs chart. "Nineveh" was also released as promotional single. Background In October 2021, Ligertwood announced that she would be releasing Seven, a live worship album, in 2022. The album recording was held on 11 November 2021, at The Belonging Co, a church in Nashville, Tennessee. Seven marks Ligertwood's first solo live project, and the seventh overall release in her solo career. Her previous solo releases were billed under her maiden name, Brooke | seventh overall release in her solo career. Her previous solo releases were billed under her maiden name, Brooke Fraser, while concurrently serving as part of Hillsong Worship as a worship leader and songwriter, co-writing critically acclaimed worship songs such as "What a Beautiful Name," and "King of Kings." In the processing of creating the album, Brooke Ligertwood co-wrote the songs with her husband and longtime collaborator Scott Ligertwood, Jason Ingram, as well as Steven Furtick and Brandon Lake among others. The album features a band spanning the worship movement, with musicians from Hillsong, Bethel and Vineyard, along with 30 piece choir. Ligertwood has said that Seven cannot be placed within the context of her Brooke Fraser catalog owing to the fact that the collection of songs was intended for the church, thus inspiring the title, and that the album being her seventh solo record was incidental. Ligertwood elaborated that the title of the album was drawn from the bible in Revelation 1, wherein John the Apostle received instruction to write down his vision and send letters to the seven churches, expressing that she also had written down what she had been given and sending it to the church. Ligertwood emphasised that she had no desire to release a worship album under her own name, but ended up doing so "because of how the songs came about and the way I knew it needed to be made and released into the world." Release and promotion Singles "A Thousand Hallelujahs" was released as the lead single of Seven on 14 January 2022, accompanied with its live music video. "A Thousand Hallelujahs" debuted at number 44 on the Hot Christian Songs chart. Promotional singles "Nineveh" |

piece of rice and leave space to write his name as well. Apart from this, he also learned the martial arts and wrestling and the art of running sticks and knots from expert art teachers. At the age of eighteen, Jaunpuri became interested in tasawwuf. After taking his father's permission, Jaunpuri pledged bay'ah to Sayyid Ahmad of Raebareli, who was the founder of the Tariqah-e-Muhammadiya movement. On the very first week of service, Sayyid Ahmad instructed him to get involved in the work of guidance and bestowed the Khilafah (succession) letter with the spiritual genealogy through Shah Ismail Dehlvi. Activism in Jaunpur His religious activities were spread across northern India in places like Jaunpur, Azamgarh, Sultanpur, Ghazipur and Faizabad. At that time, there was no daytime adhan in Jaunpur, it could only be heard with the rising and setting of the sun. He reformed this un-Islamic ritual and with great effort issued adhan in mosques. There were also concerns behind the management of the historic Jama Mosque, Jaunpur. Instead of adhan and prayers, the mosque was used for worldly gatherings like baraat, clubbing and marriage ceremonies regardless of religion. Cattle were also tied in some parts of the Jamia Masjid. It continued for many years after until Jaunpuri managed to re-establish the five daily prayers at the mosque. Similarly, after Jamia Masjid Jaunpur, he started a series of Friday sermons which continued for many years after his death. Due to his preaching efforts, attempts were made to kill him several times but he escaped due to his skill in martial arts. He also established Madrasa Hanafia and Madrasat-ul-Quran in Jaunpur for the publication of religious knowledge. The first teacher of Madrasa Hanafia was Abdul Haleem Farangi Mohali (father of Abdul Hai Lucknowi). Migration to Bengal Under Sayyid Ahmad's instruction in 1822, Jaunpuri began preaching to the Muslim masses in Bengal and Assam. He played an important role in Arabic, Urdu and Islamic studies in the country. Starting in Calcutta, he travelled to various places including Dhaka, Mymensingh, Dinajpur, Faridpur, Noakhali, Chittagong, Goalpara, Dhubri, Kamrup and Rangpur. For most of Karamat Ali Jaunpuri's career, he had to sail in Bengal and Assam for religious activities. For this reason, he established a travelling madrasa within a large boat. His students lived in the boat and Jaunpuri used to bear their expenses and teach them there. Political views Long after his murshid's death in 1831, the Tariqa-e-Muhammadiya split into two with Jaunpuri leading a non-military faction which came to be known as the Taiyunis in 1867. The Taiyunis considered cooperating with the British authorities as the more ideal option rather than rebelling. Karamat Ali Jaunpuri and the Taiyunis were also opponents of Haji Shariatullah's Faraizi movement which declared British India as a Dar al-Harb (house of war) and discarded the | he escaped due to his skill in martial arts.

The Taiyunis considered cooperating with the British authorities as the more ideal option rather than rebelling. Karamat Ali Jaunpuri and the Taiyunis were also opponents of Haji Shariatullah's Faraizi movement which declared British India as a Dar al-Harb (house of war) and discarded the Friday prayer and Eid prayers. Instead, he issued a fatwa declaring the colonised territory as a Dar al-Aman as the British government allowed freedom of religion. His fatwa was used by other Muslim scholars as well as Muslim modernists of the subcontinent like Nawab Abdul Latif and later Syed Ahmad Khan to justify their loyalty and cooperation to the British Empire. During his lifetime, Jaunpuri engaged in debate with the Faraizis, most prominently Abdul Jabbar Faraizi. The first debate regarding the Friday prayer was held in Barisal in 1867, and this was followed up by a debate in 1879 by his son Hafiz Ahmad Jaunpuri in Madaripur. Over five thousand people attended the latter event and it was dubbed by Nabinchandra Sen as the Battle of Jumuʿah. Personal life Karamat Ali Jaunpuri married four times. He first married a lady of Jaunpur but she later died. He married two women in Noakhali who also died during his lifetime. His fourth wife, originally from North India, settled in Rangpur with him and outlived him. Jaunpuri left behind hundreds of spiritual successors and 14 children. Two of his sons, Hafiz Ahmad Jaunpuri and Abdul Awwal Jaunpuri gained prominence in Bengal later on. Death and legacy During his travels in Rangpur in 1873, Jaunpuri fell ill and subsequently died on 30 May. He was buried near the Munshipara Jame Mosque in Rangpur. Works Jaunpuri has written roughly 46 books. 19 of them were compiled into the three-volume Zakhira-e-Karamat book. The remaining works are scarce. An incomplete list of his works: Miftahul Jannat Zeenat al-Musalli Zeenat al-Qari Sharh-e-Hindi Jazari Kawkab-e-Durri Tarjama-e-Shamail-e-Tirmizi Tarjama-e-Mishkat Sharif Aqaid-e-Haqqa Tazkiratul Aqaid Mafizul Huruf Qawl ath-Thabit Maqami al-Mubtadieen Haqq al-Yaqin Bay'at-o-Tauba Qawl al-Amin Murad al-Murideen |

provincial assembly for Sombor's redistributed second division in the 2004 provincial election. The Democratic Party (Demokratska stranka, DS) and its allies won the election, and Kesejić served as a member of the opposition at this level as well. He was not a candidate for re-election in 2008. The Radical Party experienced a serious split in late 2008, with several members joining the more moderate Serbian Progressive Party (Srpska napredna stranka, SNS) under the leadership of Tomislav Nikolić and Aleksandar Vučić. Kesejić remained with the Radicals. Serbia's electoral laws were reformed in 2011, such that mandates were awarded in numerical order to candidates on successful lists. Kesejić appeared in the fourteenth position on the SRS's electoral list in the 2012 provincial election. Weakened by the 2008 split, the party won only five mandates, and he was not returned. Local politics Serbia introduced the direct election of mayors in the 2004 local elections, and Kesejić ran as the Radical Party's candidate in Sombor. He was defeated by Jovan Slavković of the Democratic Party in the second round of voting. He was elected to the municipal assembly, however, and served once again as an opposition member. In April 2007, Kesejić led to the SRS in holding a "parallel" meeting of the local assembly in the streets of Sombor, due to a conflict over the municipality's credit indebtedness. Later in the same year, he advocated for a motion that would have made Russian president Vladimir Putin an honorary citizen of Sombor. The motion was not approved by the assembly. The direct election of mayors proved to be a short-lived experiment and was abandoned with the 2008 Serbian local elections. The DS narrowly defeated the SRS in Sombor in this cycle; Slavković was included on the Radical Party's list and was again given a mandate for the sitting of the assembly that followed. Following the SRS split and Serbia's electoral reforms, he received the lead position on the Radical list for Sombor in the 2012 local elections and was re-elected when the list won four out of sixty-one mandates. He did not seek re-election in 2016.

Parliamentarian Yugoslavia Kesejić was given the lead position on the SRS's list in Sombor for the Assembly of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia's Chamber of Citizens in the 1996 Yugoslavian parliamentary election. He was elected when the list won a single mandate. The Socialist Party of Serbia (Socijalistička partija Srbije, SPS) won the election and governed in conjunction with its Montenegrin allies; the Radicals initially served in opposition. Kesejić also ran for the Assembly of Vojvodina in the concurrent 1996 provincial election and was defeated. The Radical Party joined Serbia's coalition government in March 1998 and Yugoslavia's coalition government in August 1999. Kesejić served for a time as Yugoslavia's deputy minister of international trade. He again received the lead position on the Radical Party's list for Sombor in the 2000 Yugoslavian parliamentary election. The list did not win any seats in the division. He was also defeated in Sombor's third constituency seat in the concurrent Vojvodina provincial election and in the fifth constituency for Sombor's municipal assembly in the 2000 Serbian local elections. Serbia Slobodan Milošević was defeated as Yugoslavia's president in the 2000 elections, a watershed moment in Serbian and Yugoslavian politics. Serbia's government fell after Milošević's defeat, and a new Serbian parliamentary election was called for December 2000. Prior to the election, Serbia's electoral laws were reformed such that the entire country was counted as a single electoral division and all mandates were awarded to candidates at the discretion of the sponsoring parties or coalitions, irrespective of numerical order.

From the beginning, Brémond had promoted Avoriaz by gifting all-inclusive holidays to popular singers and actors in exchange for publicity shots, and a similar practice was used for the festival itself.

This led to accusations of manufactured elitism from both special and general interest publications, such as the Cahiers du Cinema and L'Express.

Organized as a vehicle for the eponymous skiing resort, it intended to promote the genre and its host town to a mainstream audience, with a level of glamour typically associated with more accepted film genres. The New York Times called it as "a great success, the high point of many junketing French journalists' winters" and the Financial Times wrote that its two decades of existence had turned Avoriaz into "a momentary movie mecca". In its time, the festival was hailed as the premier fantasy film event in the world, although recent assessments have ranked Sitges, which outlasted it by a considerable margin, as the genre's foremost gathering. History Origins The festival was the brainchild of leisure entrepreneur Gérard Brémond of Pierre & Vacances and advertiser :fr:Lionel Chouchan. Brémond had established the ski resort of Avoriaz in 1966, in cooperation with Olympic downhill skiing gold medallist Jean Vuarnet. He commissioned Chouchan to create an event that would help publicize his winter sports business. Chouchan suggested a fantastic film festival after witnessing the resort's eerie sightlines, which were influenced by organic architecture. Daniel Goldman, the head of Cinema International Corporation in France, was an early adherent to the project and helped procure screening rights to many American films. Savvy promotion and strong corporate backing elevated the event to a level of relevance unheard of for a speciality film gathering, with ample news and talk show coverage on the home country's most watched channels.

destroying three aircraft on the ground during a strafing attack on an airfield. For these actions, he was awarded the Silver Star. As well as escort duties he flew close air support missions during which his Hellcat was armed with a single bomb and in addition on occasion, 5-inch rockets. He was involved in the air strikes on 24 October 1944 that sank the battleship Musashi. During combat off Cape Engaño on the morning of 25 October 1944, Duncan led VF-15 in an attack against Imperial Japanese Navy warships in the Sibuyan Sea. He was involved in bombing attacks on the Japanese light carrier Chitose, which caused it to sink. For his actions was Duncan was awarded the Navy Cross. By early November of that same year, he had shot down four more enemy fighters. By the completion of his warzone service at the end of 1944 he had risen to command of VF-15 and had completed 54 operational sorties and was ultimately credited with 13½ aerial victories. He was sent back to the United States at the end of 1944 Post-war Following the end of the war Duncan remained in the service and in March 1945, enrolled to study aeronautical engineer at the Naval Postgraduate School at Annapolis, Maryland which also involved stuffing at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. After approximately 18 months of study he completed his studies in 1947 and was assigned the role of an engineer officer at of ComNavAirPac. While there he kept his flying skills up by flying Grumman F7F Tigercats and Grumman F8F Bearcats. He remained there for a couple of years before after a brief period on the West Coast he completed the 48-week Test Pilot Division course at United States Naval Test Pilot School at Naval Air Station Patuxent River from which he graduated in the third class in December 1949. During this period his prototype Vought XF6U-1 fighter hit the ground during a take-off, while on another test flight he was forced in 1949 to belly a XF6U-1 into the Chesapeake Bay in 1949. When he apologized to the head of the test center for the loss of the aircraft, he was told, “Forget it. It couldn’t have happened to a better airplane.” The Test Division's evaluation was that the underpowered aircraft was unacceptable for operational use, with Naval aviators disparagingly calling the aircraft the "groundhog". Among the other aircraft that he flew while at Patuxent was the Vought F7U Cutlass, Douglas F3D Skyknight, Douglas F4D Skyray and McDonnell F3H Demon On 1 June 1949, he was first promoted to the permanent rank of lieutenant commander and then to the permanent rank of commander. Upon completion of his test pilot training he remained at Patuxent flight testing until 1952. Crash on the USS Midway In June 1951 he was engaged in conducting suitability trials of the new Grumman F9F Panther BuNo 125228. The aircraft had been hoisted aboard the on the at Norfolk, Virginia and carried out into the Atlantic Ocean off the Virginia Capes. USS Midway (CV-41). There, Duncan and his plane were catapulted, and trapped by the carrier without any problems. On the 23 June 1951 having already made a successful landing aboard Midway, Duncan along with Edward L. Feightner who was testing a Vought F7U Cutlass was catapulted off to make another approach and landing. Duncan soon realized that he was carrying too much fuel to make a safe landing. He jettisoned his tip tanks and flew around while Feightner conducted made six successful landings. Eventually Duncan had burned off sufficient fuel and made his approach. Fortunately as he closed on the flight deck a downdraft just aft of the stern caused the descending Panther to dip below the deck. Duncan was able to flick the nose of the aircraft upwards as the aircraft hit the edge of the flight deck. The ramp strike was severe enough to split the fuselage of the aircraft in half and engulf the rear fuselage and engine in a fireball where it had come to rest on the fantail while the nose section of the aircraft tumbled down the deck (with Duncan inside) along the flight deck before coming to rest. The force of the impact forced off Duncan's helmet and threw lose the cockpit canopy, leaving him little protection. Sailors were able to pull Duncan from the wreckage and convey him to the sickbay. He was burned by the fire and his ears were badly scorched, but he was able to return to flying duties six months later. However it took a year before with the assistance of plastic surgery that his injuries were completely healed. Footage of Duncan's crash was captured as nearly every landing on an aircraft carrier was filmed, for educational and safety purposes. Korea Duncan then returned to normal duty. serving two tours in the Korean War, both with VF-51 during its deployment aboard the Essex-class aircraft carrier , the second as its commanding officer. He then went on to commanded Fighter Squadron VF-101, and later was Commander Air Group Carrier Air Group 5 (CVG-5).

Ship command To progress to sea command of a naval carrier it was necessary for Duncan as a naval aviator to have commanded a “deep-draft” ship. This was provided by this next assignment which was as captain of aircraft stores ship USS Jupiter (AVS-8) from July 1961 to 24 March 1962. While under his command the ship operated out of Yokosuka, Japan, with the 7th Fleet. As long as the ship turned up to resupply ships at the scheduled time Duncan was free to travel wherever he liked with it. As a result, he was popular with the wives of naval personal stationed in Japan as the ship could be used to transport their shopping back from trips to Hong Kong.

ESSEX (CV-9), in action against enemy Japanese forces in the central Philippines, on 13 September 1944. Alert and aggressive while leading his division in a hazardous fighter sweep against the enemy, Lieutenant Commander Duncan courageously intercepted a group of hostile planes and, pressing home his assaults with grim determination, personally shot down one medium enemy bomber and rendered invaluable assistance to a fellow pilot in destroying another during this engagement. Subsequently attacked by a vastly superior force of Japanese fighters, he skillfully maneuvered his plane for maximum striking power and, despite the tremendous odds, succeeded in blasting two of the hostile craft from the sky and in damaging a third. In addition, although opposed by concentrated anti-aircraft fire, Lieutenant Commander Duncan launched repeated hazardous strafing runs against grounded enemy aircraft, setting fire to and destroying three grounded planes. By his inspiring leadership, resolute courage and unwavering devotion to duty throughout, Lieutenant Commander Duncan contributed materially to the success of his squadron and upheld the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service The Navy Cross was awarded on 16 December 1944.

Career Wilhelmi chaired the Department of Biochemistry at Emory University School of Medicine from 1950 to 1977. In 1960, he was named Charles Howard Candler Professor of Biochemistry. In 1979, he received Emory's Thomas Jefferson award for service to the university and community. Wilhelmi also was President of the Endocrine Society from 1968 to 1969. During his career, he published over 80 articles in scientific journals. The Human Growth Hormone, Creutzfeld Jakob Disease Controversy Wilhelmi was an important researcher involved in harnessing human grown hormone from cadavers in the 1960s and 1970s. Early studies conducted in 1958 by Maurice Raben at Tufts University School of Medicine showed it was possible to cause children with pituitary dwarfism to grow by injecting them with human growth hormone.In 1961, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) formed the National Pituitary Agency to organize collection and redistribution of human endocrine glands to three | at Tufts University School of Medicine showed it was possible to cause children with pituitary dwarfism to grow by injecting them with human growth hormone.In 1961, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) formed the National Pituitary Agency to organize collection and redistribution of human endocrine glands to three universities for processing into growth hormone: Emory University, Tufts University and Cornell University. For the first 14 of these years, Wilhelmi supervised the Emory laboratory, which was the largest seat of hormone production. In 1985, however, two patients who previously had received the exogenous hormone treatment died in the United States. That caused the NIH to suspend the human growth hormone program and launch an investigation. The deaths were attributed to Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (CJD) transmitted by impurities in the hormone injected into the patients years earlier using the Wilhelmi protocol. As of 2000, there had been 22 CJD deaths among American recipients of unfiltered hormone prior to 1977. References 1910 births |
