The future of schizophrenia pharmacotherapeutics: Not so bleak

The bleak future of NAND flash memory

In recent years, flash-based SSDs have grown enormously both in capacity and popularity. In highperformance enterprise storage applications, accelerating adoption of SSDs is predicated on the ability of manufacturers to deliver performance that far exceeds disks while closing the gap in cost per gigabyte. However, while flash density continues to improve, other metrics such as a reliability, en...

A bleak future or a golden opportunity.

The solutions to the problems facing the healthcare profession are too large to be addressed by one narrow segment, but oncologists and oncology nurses can be a model for health care in general if we build upon the ways in which we work together.

The Future of the Hydrogen Economy : Bright or Bleak ?

In the past, many have considered the production and use of hydrogen, assuming that it is just another gaseous fuel and can be handled much like natural gas in today’s energy economy. With this study we present an analysis of the energy required to operate an elemental hydrogen economy, with particular reference to road transport. High-grade electricity from renewable or nuclear sources is need...

The riddle of protein diagnostics: future bleak or bright?

The theory behind an exploding kaleidoscope of protein biomarker research is that reproducible molecular differences that correlate with important medical attributes can be discovered in patient samples and that these molecules can be measured with clinical tests to obtain useful medical information. How could this not be true? Chorionic gonadotropin and cardiac troponins are very good biomarke...
