A diverse group of people with a range skills is required to be successful in academia, just as it team sports, argues Bruce C. Gibb.

On September 23, 2016, Bruce M. Alberts was presented with the Lasker-Koshland Special Achievement Award in Medical Science, which honored him for “fundamental discoveries in DNA replication and protein biochemistry; for visionary leadership in directing national and international scientific organizations to better people’s lives; and for passionate dedication to improving education in science ...

Let G be a finite p-group of order pn with |G′| = pk, and let M(G) denote its Schur multiplier. A classical result of Green states that |M(G)| ≤ p 1 2 n(n−1) . In 2009, Niroomand, improving Green’s and other bounds on |M(G)| for a non-abelian p-group G, proved that |M(G)| ≤ p 2 (n−k−1)(n+k−2)+1. In this paper, we prove that a bound, obtained earlier by Ellis and Wiegold, is stronger than that o...

Collecting jokes on the Internet is becoming more and more useful, and one might say even unavoidable. The renewed nature of jokes (short, electronically distributed in addition to oral circulation, some jokes created only for electronic media (see Ellis 2001) etc) requires renewed methods for collecting and processing the data. Further than that, the Estonian Internet has some special advantag...
