Humanizing Mathematics: The Humanistic Impression in the Course for Mathematics Teaching

Mathematics through Art - Art through Mathematics

Computer software can be used for artistic design and as a means to facilitate the understanding of mathematical concepts. We discuss some of the issues that arise when we use computers in this way, and some of our own experiences teaching both art and mathematics students using software that can assist in the design and coloring of symmetric images.

Humanizing the yeast telomerase template.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae contains an irregular telomere sequence (TG1-3)n, which differs from the regular repeat (TTAGGG)n found at the telomeres of higher organisms including humans. We have modified the entire 16-nt template region of the S. cerevisiae telomerase RNA gene (TLC1) to produce (TTAGGG)n repeats, the human telomere sequence. Haploid yeast strains with the tlc1-human allele are via...

Reflections on humanizing biomedicine.

Although biomedicine is responsible for the "miracles" of modern medicine, paradoxically it has also led to a quality-of-care crisis in which many patients feel disenfranchised from the health-care industry. To address this crisis, several medical commentators make an appeal for humanizing biomedicine, which has led to shifts in the philosophical boundaries of medical knowledge and practice. In...
