I-14: Assisted Reproduction and Religion What Consideration Should Be and Should Not Be Relevant,
Several important issues are pertinent to an ethical discussion of the new technology today grouped under the name Assisted Reproduction Technology (ART). This is a moral imperative because each of us must decide what is to be considered ethically acceptable in assisted reproduction. Reflecting on the ethical dimension of ‘creating’ a new human life can play a major role in ensuring that in eac...
متن کاملTowards Biomimetic Locomotion in Robotics
Locomotion in nature fairly exceeds locomotion of human-made devices. Biomimetics now tries to copy and imitate materials, mechanisms and processes found in biology to overcome the limitations of traditional mechatronical robotics. By investigating muscle-like polymers, imitating nerve-wiring in animals or evolving motion patterns on the computer several research labs worldwide are producing pr...

Evidence-based medicine should be based on science To the Editor: Although the recent article in the SAMJ entitled ‘Evidence-based medicine – are we boiling the frog?’ by Muckart can evoke a true discussion, I feel that it could worsen the prejudice some people already have regarding evidence-based medicine (EBM). While I understand and concur with most of Muckart’s sentiments, I am concerned a...
متن کاملOv Catechol-Based Biomimetic Functional Materials
Catechols are found in nature taking part in a remarkably broad scope of biochemical processes and functions. Though not exclusively, such versatility may be traced back to several properties uniquely found together in the o -dihydroxyaryl chemical function; namely, its ability to establish reversible equilibria at moderate redox potentials and pHs and to irreversibly cross-link through complex...
متن کاملAlgorithms for Sonar Tracking in Biomimetic Robotics
Bats are suspected of using predictive tracking in their insect-capture behavior. In Webster and Brazier (1965) they are observed capturing rapidly accelerating moths in the presence of vegetation. This is of interest in the context of sonar-guided behavior in biomimetic robotics. Engineering approaches to that problem often use radar tracking algorithms, particularly various Kalman filters, wh...
