Experimentalist Meets Theoretician: A Tale of Two Scientific Cultures
This is the story of how a small team of experimentalists and theoreticians collaborated to develop a theoretical model for vesicle formation during endocytosis. In telling our story, we hope to distil some general conclusions about the purpose and value of theoretical models and how best to navigate collaborations between experimentalists and theoreticians. We encountered challenges in buildin...
متن کاملHans Zinsser: a tale of two cultures.
Hans Zinsser, president of the Society of American Bacteriologists in 1926, was known as much for his literary and textbook writing as for his scientific contributions. He was a widely known scientist and person of letters. His early interests in poetry and other forms of literature were maintained and developed during his career as a microbiologist, and his most enduring legacy is based on his...
متن کاملScientific Correspondence A Tale of Two Pigments
Recent discoveries on photoreceptors for both red and blue light compel a reexamination of certain older work, including some of my own. New data from molecular biology have removed the uncertainty in the interpretation of absorption and action spectra to define pigment systems active in photobiological phenomena. In 1968, while on sabbatical at the Department of Biophysics at King’s College in...
متن کاملCockpit-cabin communication: I. A tale of two cultures.
Several dramatic accidents have emphasized certain deficiencies in cockpit-cabin coordination and communication. There are historical, organizational, environmental, psychosocial, and regulatory factors that have led to misunderstandings, problematic attitudes, and suboptimal interactions between the cockpit and cabin crews. Our research indicates the basic problem is that these two crews repre...
متن کاملScientists and software engineers: a tale of two cultures
The two cultures of the title are those observed in my field studies: the culture of scientists (financial mathematicians, earth and planetary scientists, and molecular biologists) developing their own software, and the culture of software engineers developing scientific software. In this paper, I shall describe some problems arising when scientists and software engineers come together to devel...
