Are We Working Too Hard?-A Functional Scoring of Orthopaedic Surgeons.
Dear Editor, It is no secret that surgeons are subjected (or subject themselves) to long hours at work, be it in the operating theatre, the clinic, the offi ce, or otherwise. Such a lifestyle is likely to result in health problems in the long run. The mental health of doctors has been extensively studied, with many doctors revealing evidence of psychiatric morbidity.1,2 This has implications on...
متن کاملGenomic toolboxes for conservation biologists
Conservation genetics is expanding its research horizon with a genomic approach, by incorporating the modern techniques of next-generation sequencing (NGS). Application of NGS overcomes many limitations of conservation genetics. First, NGS allows for genome-wide screening of markers, which may lead to a more representative estimation of genetic variation within and between populations. Second, ...
متن کاملToo hard to face.
While the Holocaust is often placed at the genesis of bioethics, this relatively young field has not yet seriously explored the conduct of German scientists and physicians involved in the human subjects experiments of the Holocaust. We comfort ourselves with the beliefs that the individuals involved in the events of the Holocaust were mad or evil and unlike other scientists and physicians. Yet ...
متن کاملWhen swordfish conservation biologists eat swordfish.
We are seeing species decline and disappear at everincreasing rates. Environmental problems have become so widespread and emergencies so common that they are no longer perceived as drama. Few news items have the power to grasp our attention and elicit a sense of dismay. Gossip is presented alongside ecologic disaster and stock-market issues compete with nuclear threat and extermination of innoc...
متن کاملVertex Bisection is Hard, too
We settle an open problem mentioned in Diaz, Petit, and Serna: A survey of graph layout problems (ACM Computing Surveys 34:313–356, 2002). Of eight objectives considered in that survey, only the complexity status of minimum vertex bisection is listed as unknown. We show that both minimum and maximum vertex bisection are NP-hard, but polynomially solvable on special graph classes such as hypercu...
