Tian’s method hinges on the introduction of bends known as “kinks” into the previously linear structure of the nanowire. He told The Crimson this week that his discovery was inspired by what he saw in nature—both the “kinks” in organic molecules that give them specific geometries and the crystalline structure of many minerals...
Aside from their potential use as a means of conducting electricity, the nanowires may serve to localize functionality at a particular point within the nanostructure, said Ping Xie, a postdoctoral fellow and author. With one-dimensional nanowires, it is currently difficult to determine where activity is concentrated within the linear wire...
Updike’s possessions in the current archive already make up 308 linear feet and will take an estimated two years to sort through. Now that’s a lot of Updike...
...look at telomere biology, there has been three major discoveries beyond the fact that chromosomes are linear. Szostak made the first one,” said Stephen J. Elledge, an HMS professor of genetics who has researched on the link between telomeres and cancer suppression. “This prize should have been received a long time ago. Szostak’s prize is very important, and I’m glad that [the committee] got it right...
...study found, for the first time, a linear relationship between mood and pimples: the worse the mental-illness symptoms, the worse the acne. It's possible that the association simply means that kids who feel depressed are more likely to report they have bad acne, even if they don't - but previous studies have shown that dermatologists independently agree with teens' self-reports of acne severity about 75% of the time. Some of the depressed and anxious kids in the Norwegian study may have exaggerated their acne, but in a sample as large as this one, it's unlikely that...
