The Motor Boat Show at Madison Square Garden

Some Motor Cycles at the Stanley Show

more apparent to other users of the roads than to the rider, but on the other hand it is so speedy and economical a means of transit that its votaries are increasing in number every year. This year's show provides ample proof of steady progress in the evolution of a satisfactory machine, and the growing popularity of the light weight machine is perhaps the most striking tendency of the year.

Biomedical informatics training at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this paper is to describe biomedical informatics training at the University of Wisconsin-Madison (UW-Madison). METHODS We reviewed biomedical informatics training, research, and faculty/trainee participation at UW-Madison. RESULTS There are three primary approaches to training 1) The Computation & Informatics in Biology & Medicine Training Program, 2) formal biomed...

The Arabidopsis knockout facility at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

As of this writing the Arabidopsis genome is 97% sequenced with only small portions of the highly repetitive regions within centromeres and telomeres remaining. The identification of approximately 25,000 plant genes will give plant biologists an opportunity to identify and understand the function of the proteins they encode. One exciting tool that will aid in this endeavor is the use of inserti...

Development of molecular biology at the University of Wisconsin, Madison.

Dramatic changes in the foundation of academic departments in our universities are uncommon. With the demonstration that DNA was the cellular source of genetic information, and that this information could be regulated, the field of molecular biology was born. Later, when scientists found that they could tinker with this information, the field matured. In an unusually rapid manner, molecular bio...
