...biochemistry. He is currently a professor of biology at Lehigh University.Consequently, the language of articles advocating intelligent design is often sophisticated, academic, even scientific.Behe used language such as “irreducibly complex,” “subcellular compartments,” and “ultrasophisticated molecular machines” in an article in Natural History magazine.Edwards attributes the academic bent of intelligent design’s verbiage to the fact that scientific arguments are seen as more credible. “They’re paying homage to science,” Edwards says...
...between mental events occurring a few seconds apart. Previously, scientists could only differentiate between mental events that took place a half a minute to a minute apart, Bucker said. At Harvard, Buckner will spearhead the fMRI center being built for the new Center for Brain Science, said Professor of Molecular and Cellular Biology Joshua R. Sanes, who directs the Center for Brain Science. The fMRI center is scheduled to open in 2007, Sanes said. “The fact that we’re going to have scanners on campus is really exciting,” Buckner said. He added...
...chanting participants in a national walkout to protest the war in Iraq and military recruitment in schools. Local high schoolers—who said they were risking suspension by cutting classes—joined workers and Harvard students in front of the Science Center. A graduate student in molecular and cellular biology, Kaveri Rajaraman, shouted over a loudspeaker, “If the United States government does not pull out of Iraq, there will be trouble.” After the Science Center rally, nearly 100 students and workers marched across the Yard in single file and complete silence, waving...
Managing director Palmer, an industrial designer and engineer, set up a design company focused on innovation in 1999. He became interested in dilatant materials, whose unique flowing and locking molecular bond was discovered in the '50s. Palmer figured that if these properties could be combined with an elastic element that returned a material to its original shape after impact, you'd have a product with innumerable applications. After three years in the lab--at one time making mixes in a food blender--Green came up with...
...head in the sand. Western medicine (through technology) has found a way to extend our lives well beyond what was once considered a normal life-span, but it has not addressed the quality-of-life issue. Bioidentical hormone-replacement therapies, which use hormones manufactured to have the same molecular structure as those made by our bodies, enable us to maintain quality of life by replacing the hormones we lose as we age. The goal is to keep our insides young. A youthful interior manifests itself on the outside. SUZANNE SOMERS Los Angeles...
