Michael T. Clegg received his B.S. and Ph.D. degrees in agricultural genetics and genetics respectively at the University of California, Davis. In 1972 he joined the faculty of Brown University moving from there to the University of Georgia in 1976. In 1984, he assumed the position of Professor of Genetics at the University of California, Riverside, where he also served as Dean of the College of Natural and Agricultural Sciences from 1994 to 2000 and founding director of the Genomics Institute from 2000 to 2004. He assumed his present position as Donald Bren Professor of Biological Sciences at the University of California, Irvine, in 2004. Clegg's research specialty is population genetics and molecular evolution. His early work in population genetics focused on the dynamical behavior of linked systems of genes in plant and Drosophila populations. During this period, he also contributed to the theoretical study of multilocus systems employing computer simulations together with the analysis of mathematical models. Later he helped pioneer the comparative analysis of cholorplast DNA variation as a tool for the reconstruction of plant phylogenies. His current work is concerned with the use of genomic data and coalescent models to study crop plant domestication in barley and avocado. Clegg is also heavily engaged in international science policy and science diplomacy through his role as Foreign Secretary of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences. During an academic career of over 40 years, Clegg has published more than 160 research articles and book chapters and he has coauthored or edited nine books. Clegg was elected to membership in the National Academy of Sciences in 1990 and he was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1992. He was elected Foreign Secretary of the National Academy of Sciences in 2002 and reelected in 2006 and 2010. He has also served as President of the American Genetic Association and President of the International Society for Molecular Biology & Evolution. He is an Associate Fellow of the Academy of Sciences of the Developing World (TWAS) and a corresponding member of several foreign academies. He was elected a member of the American Philosophical Society in 2012.

George Clymer (16 March 1739–23 January 1813) was a politician and merchant and a member of the Young Junto (elected in 1759) and American Philosophical Society (elected in 1786). Born in Philadelphia, he was orphaned at a young age and adopted by his uncle William Coleman, a wealthy merchant and founding APS member. In adulthood Clymer’s merchant business made him one of the wealthiest men in the city and a force in local politics. An early supporter of American independence, he served on several Philadelphia resistance committees and, jointly with APS member Michael Hillegas, as Treasurer of the United Colonies. Clymer was then elected to the Second Continental Congress, where he sat on the boards of treasury and war and signed the Declaration of Independence. After inspecting military outposts at Albany, Ticonderoga, and Saratoga, he was part of the three-person congressional executive committee that remained in Philadelphia during its evacuation. As a delegate to the Pennsylvania constitutional convention, Clymer refused to sign the state’s radical new constitution and rose to prominence in the Republican party for his efforts to repeal it in the Pennsylvania Assembly. In order to finance the war effort, he helped found the Bank of Pennsylvania. He signed the federal Constitution and advocated for the location of the new nation’s capital in Philadelphia. And he served in the first U.S. Congress, in the unpopular position of supervisor of revenue for Pennsylvania, and on the commission that negotiated the 1796 Treaty of Coleraine with the Creek Indians of Georgia. A member of several voluntary societies and a donor to numerous charities, his retirement found him serving as president of the Philadelphia Bank and the Academy of Fine Arts, vice-president of the Philadelphia Society for Promoting Agriculture, and trustee of the University of Pennsylvania.
