Cataloguing names the old-fashioned way.
THE VENEZUELAN ACADEMY OF PHYSICAL, MATHEMATICAL, AND NATURAL SCIENCES WOULD like to share with the international scientific community our fears for the present and future fate of science and higher education in our country. A number of worrisome recent events and our interpretations of their implications motivate our concern: 1. The president of our country has stated what he believes science ...

متن کاملConserved ‘Hypothetical’ Proteins: New Hints and New Puzzles
Conserved hypothetical proteins, i.e. conserved proteins whose functions are still unknown, pose a challenge not just to functional genomics but also to general biology. For many conserved proteins, computational analysis provides only a general prediction of biochemical function; their exact biological functions have to be established through direct experimentation. In the few cases when this ...
متن کاملThe Thermodynamic Arrow: Puzzles and Pseudo-puzzles
For more than a century, physics has known of a puzzling conflict between the T-asymmetry of thermodynamic phenomena and the T-symmetry of the underlying microphysics on which these phenomena depend. This paper provides a guide to the current status of this puzzle, distinguishing the central issue from various issues with which it may be confused. It is shown that there are two competing concep...
