Together with Erwin Bünning and Colin Pittendrigh, he is considered to be a co-founder of the field of chronobiology.
Aschoff's work in the field of chronobiology introduced ideas of light... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biofact%20%28biology%29 | In biology, a biofact is dead material of a once-living organism.
In 1943, the protozoologist Bruno M. Klein of Vienna (1891–1968) coined the term in his article Biofakt und Artefakt in the microscopy journal Mikrokosmos, though at that time it was not adopted by the scientific community. Klein's concept of biofact st... |

Early life
Furry was born in Prairieton, Indiana on February 18. 1907. He earned an A.B. degree from DePauw Un... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accidental%20symmetry |
In field theory
In physics, particularly in renormalization theory, an accidental symmetry is a symmetry which is present in an effective field theory because the operators in the Lagrangian that violate this symmetry are irrelevant operators. Since the contribution by irrelevant operators at low energies is small, t... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleic%20acid%20design | Nucleic acid design is the process of generating a set of nucleic acid base sequences that will associate into a desired conformation. Nucleic acid design is central to the fields of DNA nanotechnology and DNA computing. It is necessary because there are many possible sequences of nucleic acid strands that will fold ... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population%20structure%20%28genetics%29 | Population structure (also called genetic structure and population stratification) is the presence of a systematic difference in allele frequencies between subpopulations. In a randomly mating (or panmictic) population, allele frequencies are expected to be roughly similar between groups. However, mating tends to be no... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False%20sharing | In computer science, false sharing is a performance-degrading usage pattern that can arise in systems with distributed, coherent caches at the size of the smallest resource block managed by the caching mechanism. When a system participant attempts to periodically access data that is not being altered by another party, ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rs7997012 | In genetics, rs7997012 is a gene variation—a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)—in intron 2 of the human HTR2A gene that codes for the 5-HT2A receptor.
The SNP varies between adenine (A) and guanine (G) DNA bases with the G-allele being most frequent.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fax%C3%A9n%27s%20law | In fluid dynamics, Faxén's laws relate a sphere's velocity and angular velocity to the forces, torque, stresslet and flow it experiences under low Reynolds number (creeping flow) conditions.
First law
Faxen's first law was introduced in 1922 by Swedish physicist Hilding Faxén, who at the time was active at Uppsala U... |
