A lifetime of migration.

چکیده
Careers in any profession can take a curious path. One small choice can seemingly change a career path and chance encounters open doors to new opportunities that take a person in new, unforeseen directions. For Chris Wylie this has certainly been the case. This interview highlights how someone can build a successful career in science, how that career can be fulfilling and fun and at the same time, it is possible to have a family and a life outside of science. Chris has certainly had success in science, having built very successful labs at many institutions and helped found and grow world-renowned research centers. He gives great credit for his success to his longtime collaborator and wife, Janet Heasman. Although they have indeed made major contributions to their chosen fields of study, what is remarkable is the number of trainees that they have had pass through their labs. Ultimately for any scientist that might be their greatest legacy and it is obvious the impact that great mentors such as J.Z. Young and Ruth Bellairs had on how Chris ran his own lab. As Chris moves on to the next stage of his career, it seems likely that he will pursue it with as much vigor and passion as he pursued his love of scientific research and have a lot of fun. I can't wait for the next interview!

Double base propellant consists of two main components, nitrocellulose and nitroglycerin and nitroglycerin migration from inter to surface of propellant, is the main problem of this type of propellants. In the effect of this undesirable phenomenon, due to the heterogeneity of nitroglycerin in the propellant matrix during Storage, in addition to decrease of safety, the ballistic properties will ...
متن کاملThe fertility of internal migrants to Kinshasa
The rapid population growth of many African cities has important implications for population health, yet little is known about factors contributing to increasing population, such as the fertility of internal migrants. We examine whether in-migrants to Kinshasa have different fertility patterns than lifetime Kinshasa residents, and identify characteristics of migrants that may explain difference...
متن کاملEnhancing long-range exciton guiding in molecular nanowires by H-aggregation lifetime engineering.
Excitonic transitions in organic semiconductors are associated with large oscillator strength that limits the excited-state lifetime and can in turn impede long-range exciton migration. We present perylene-based emissive H-aggregate nanowires where the lowest energy state is only weakly coupled to the ground state, thus dramatically enhancing lifetime. Exciton migration occurs by thermally acti...
متن کاملEnergy migration alters the fluorescence lifetime of Cerulean: implications for fluorescence lifetime imaging Forster resonance energy transfer measurements.
Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET) is a physical phenomenon used to study molecular interactions in living cells. Changes in the fluorescence lifetime of proteins genetically tagged with a donor fluorophore, such as cyan fluorescent protein or Cerulean, are used to measure energy transfer to a protein tagged with an acceptor fluorophore (yellow fluorescent protein or Venus). Increased tra...

BACKGROUND This paper focuses on the lifetime prevalence of mental disorders in individuals with Turkish migration backgrounds in Germany, as there is a lack of reliable epidemiological data on this subject. METHODS In total, 662 adults with Turkish migration backgrounds were interviewed in Hamburg and Berlin by trained, bilingual interviewers using the computerized Composite International Di...
