Charles Daniel Lane is a British molecular biologist who along with colleagues Gerard Marbaix and John Gurdon discovered the oocyte exogenous mRNA expression system – a system that not only reveals aspects of the control of gene expression but also provides a "living test tube" for the study of macromolecules: such a whole cell system also shows the merits of a non-reductionist approach, and the possibility of mRNA therapeutics.

Lane is the son of biologist and nature conservationist Miriam Rothschild and British Army officer George Lane. As a boy, Charles displayed a passion for moths, butterflies and plants, and with the aid of his mother wrote a number of "anecdotal" papers on subjects such as the migration of butterflies. Charles was also a significant collector of Meadow Brown butterflies for the population genetic studies of E.B. Ford.

Lane is known for the discovery (with colleagues Gerard Marbaix and John Gurdon), of the oocyte surrogate gene expression system, and its subsequent development and refinement (with many colleagues) for the study of post translational events including the study of proteins embedded in cell membranes. Lane believed that John Gurdon's studies on gene expression enjoyed further potential.

The first key experiment was performed in 1968 by Lane and John Gurdon appeared in print at just about the same month (September) of 1971. However, the Nature paper did emphasize that the oocyte exogenous mRNA system had already been used in other experiments (i.e the landmark paper) and the landmark paper was included in the reference of the Nature paper. The key role of Gerard Marbaix (who prepared the globin mRNA) is apparent from the landmark paper.

A vital question was the extent to which the living oocyte could carry out post-translational modifications and the answer, indicating near universality, began to emerge.<ref> The ability of the oocyte to process correctly and locate correctly foreign particles renders this whole cell system generally useful. The system has also been used to evaluate control systems within the living cell. This basic discovery has generated a significant literature and the Xenopus oocyte microinjection system has become a standard feature of many laboratories, whilst the philosophy behind using the cell as a "living test tube" has spread far beyond the simple oocyte system – not least to mRNA therapeutics.

In 1976, Scientific American published a popular article by Lane entitled "Rabbit Haemoglobin from Frog Eggs". One can argue that the discovery of the oocyte expression system has given rise to a new albeit minor branch of molecular biology, with a substantial number of scientific papers published each year ( please see reviews by Lane CD and Morel C, Bloemendal et al, Smith M et al and Jacobson A, Lane CD and Alton). Whilst the expression system enjoys proven usefulness for receptor studies,<ref> there is little direct evidence that mRNA therapeutics will have a general impact on medical practices.

It is a somewhat amazing circumstance that the Nobel prize winners of the last 20 years have used the oocyte system to gather information.<ref> Such Nobel prize winners include 2021 winners, David Julius and Ardem Patapoutian, who won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine "for their discoveries of receptors for temperature and touch".<ref>

The initial studies which led to this discovery, were performed in the old Zoology Department building (at Oxford). Even before Lane had finished his doctoral thesis he was elected (age 22) a Research Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge – one of the youngest persons ever to be elected a Fellow of a Cambridge College.

Lane had realised that the oocyte system enjoyed enormous potential for the study of post translational events, and an early (1971) Proceeding of the National Academy of Sciences paper with Hans Bloemendal, Anton Berns, Ger Strous and Michael Matthews focused on that which, in terms of post-translational events, the oocyte system could and could not do. That which it could not do turned out to be extremely rare – the oocyte could even accurately modify honey bee promelittin made under the direction of injected venom gland mRNA For about 14 years, Lane's research focused on the oocyte as a system for studying post translational (and other) downstream events. Lane was not interested in the use of the oocyte as a system for studies with exogenous DNA, believing that other systems were better suited to upstream studies: nonetheless, the oocyte system has its uses for such endeavors, especially as regards the study of transcription.

Paddy Hudspith reviews the album for Cross Rhythms and gives it 8 out of a possible 10 and remarks, "I was most impressed by the variety on offer here, from acapella or sparse string arrangements, to mature pop and even a touch of bluesy rock! Selah's three singers have more distinctive tones than some vocal groups on the CCM scene. Recommended."

He first visited church members in the Mexican state of Michoacán in August 1964 and later that year went to Los Angeles on a missionary trip. By 1970, the Church had expanded to Costa Rica, Colombia, and Guatemala. Its first small temple in Hermosa Provincia was demolished and replaced by a larger one in 1967. With Samuel Joaquín's work, La Luz del Mundo became integrated into Guadalajara and the Church replicated the model of Hermosa Provincia in many cities in Mexico and abroad. By 1972, there were approximately 72,000 members of the Church, which increased to 1.5 million by 1986 and to 4 million by 1993. Anthropologist Patricia Fortuny says that the Church's growth can be attributed to several factors, including its social benefits, which "improves the living conditions of believers." Samuel Joaquín oversaw the construction of schools, hospitals and other social services. The Church also expanded to countries including the UK, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Ethiopia and Israel between 1990 and 2010.

Leon Charles Weiss (1882–1953) was an architect in the 20th century who designed various public buildings in Louisiana and Mississippi, especially during the 1930s. Many of Weiss's notable designs were commissioned by populist politician Huey Long and financed by the Public Works Administration. Although he designed in various architectural styles, many of his projects are considered to be PWA Moderne.

Weiss formed a partnership with architect Felix Julius Dreyfous in 1920. Solis Seiferth became a partner in the same firm in 1923, resulting in the formation of the architectural firm of Weiss, Dreyfous and Seiferth. The firm continued until 1939, when Weiss was indicted and convicted of helping Louisiana State University president Dr. James Monroe Smith embezzle more than $5000 from public funds.<ref> The firm then reorganized and continued operation without Weiss's involvement.

They also completed several designs in Mississippi in this early time period including the Eola Hotel in Vicksburg, Mississippi. As his endeavors expanded, Weiss and his various architectural firms also designed many residential homes, in addition to public buildings, academic buildings for colleges, hotels, and other commercial properties. The firms also designed renovations and alterations for existing buildings.Weiss, Dreyfous, and Seiferth Office Records, Southeastern Architectural Archive, Special Collection 53/Rev. 04/11/2017/KW/3 Collections Division, Tulane University Libraries.

After Huey Long became governor of Louisiana in 1928, Weiss, Dreyfous and Seiferth were awarded many architectural design contracts for public buildings in Louisiana. This connection came about as Weiss had met Long in 1928 and subsequently his firm supported Long as he went through impeachment proceedings in 1929. Long had a vision of modernizing Louisiana, which included extensive building projects. Long needed suitable architecture for this purpose.

Consistent with Long's desire to modernize Louisiana, he chose to replace the governor's mansion, which was in an old southern style, with a more up to date building. Weiss and his architectural firm received the design commission. The design of the governor's mansion is similar to the United States White House, with the first floors of the two buildings identical. Weiss designed in features specifically to Long's liking including an escape from public parts of the building to the governor's private quarters and the garage, as well as an electronic display for following votes in the Louisiana State Legislature. The building served as the governor's mansion from 1930 to 1963 and is currently on the National Register of Historic Places.

Huey Long was committed to expanding the state university system in Louisiana, beyond the original design of architect Theodore C. Link. As Weiss, Dreyfous and Seiferth's relationship with the Long political machine solidified, the firm received many design contracts for colleges and universities in Louisiana during the 1930s. The main campus of Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge went through significant expansion with funding supplemented by the Public Works Administration.

The Louisiana State Legislature was opposed to building a new football stadium. Instead, at Long's request, Weiss designed student dormitories into the design of the stadium, since dormitories were an approved expense by the state legislature. Additionally, Long wanted the swimming pool at the university's Huey P. Long Field House to be the largest swimming pool in the United States. To that end, Weiss's design for the facility included a swimming pool that was one foot longer than the next longest swimming pool in the United States at the time.

From Huey Long's persistence, the state of Louisiana built a new medical school, which was in New Orleans, as the Louisiana State University Medical School. The medical school was designed by Weiss and his firm. Its proximity with the already-established Tulane University School of Medicine created a competitive situation between the two institutions.

By 1933, New Orleans Charity Hospital was in need of a new building to replace the dilapidated one that was in use at the time. After considerable discussion by the Louisiana state government led by Huey Long and the Public Works Administration (PWA), Weiss's architectural firm was awarded the design contract for the new building in 1936. On its completion in 1939, the new hospital was the second largest in the United States and, at 20 stories, was the tallest building in New Orleans.

Weiss and his architectural firm was to receive a 6% fee for their design. However, the original cost estimate of $8 million rose to $12.5 million. The PWA declined to pay a larger fee based on the higher cost, taking the position that all the architectural work was done before construction costs increased. The state government of Louisiana made up the difference.

The height of the new hospital building was a significant design achievement because of the soft alluvial ground in the New Orleans area. Shortly after completion of construction, the new building began sinking, eventually by 18 inches (46 centimeters). This subsidence resulted in distortions, cracks, and separations in the walls of the building. Consulting engineers were hired to assess the problem, of which Weiss's firm paid a portion of the cost.

Weiss integrated various artworks in the design for the hospital. This included an aluminum sculpture by Enrique Alférez, located in the transom of the main entrance to the hospital. The aluminum sculpture included a flying duck, just to the right of the central human figure of the sculpture. This was a reference to the practice of Huey Long of "deduct boxes" in which state employees were expected to make personal contributions to Long's political efforts.

The sculptor Alférez later alleged that Weiss frequently asked for more money to pay political debts of then Governor Richard W. Leche, who was part of the Huey Long political machine. He also contended that Weiss inappropriately compromised in implementation of the hospital design for the purposes of obtaining money to pay political debts. None of the allegations were confirmed in subsequent investigations by authorities.

Following his release from prison, Weiss formed an architectural practice with Edward B. Silverstein in New Orleans. Weiss's most significant design after returning to architectural practice was an expansion of the Jung Hotel in the early 1950s.

Leon C. Weiss was unrelated to Huey Long's assassin Carl Weiss and unrelated to Huey Long's business partner Seymour Weiss, even though all three have the same family name. Others have noted that the prominence of Jewish people such as Weiss and his architectural partners was somewhat unusual in the southern United States at the time.
