...doctors called by the New York Heart Association, Inc. There is strong evidence, said Dr. Gofman, that although many giant molecules circulating in the blood contain cholesterol, only certain special types seem to be associated with atherosclerosis. Definitely accused of "guilt by association" with atherosclerosis: giant molecules with a molecular weight of about 1,000,000, which contain 30% cholesterol, and have an ultracentrifuge flotation rate...
...which led to the atomic bomb. After leaving the Manhattan Project. Dr. Gofman went to medical school and in 1946 got his M.D. He is now an assistant professor of medical physics at Donner Laboratory in Berkeley, and senior member of the large team which has been probing the molecular make-up of the blood...
...last case in this group, to be edited by Leonard K. Nash '39, assistant professor of Chemistry, will deal with the development of atomic and molecular theory. Other case subjects will be announced at a later date...
...least I should not like to have you think that he is. He is perfectly able to accept, for a time being, a system of kinetc equations embracing the data of photosynthesis as picturing the known essence of the mechanism of this process. He also wants to learn the molecular inwardness of the matter, the kinetic mechanism with all its defects serving as a ladder toward specific experimental inquiry. He is not so crude as to look for a nexus of springs pulling dashpots through baths of hydraulic oil when he peers at muscle fibers in electron microscope pictures, though...
...drawn a theory on the origin of the earth-now probably the ranking theory among astronomers. He hypothesizes that the solar system was once all dust, and that the dust collected to form planets. And what, at first, drove the dust together? Not gravity, says Whipple, and not molecular attraction--but the seemingly insignificant push exerted by light beams, streaming out from...
