She is known for her discoveries involving RNA, including ground-breaking insights into how ribosomes interact with messenger ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud%20storage | Cloud storage is a model of computer data storage in which the digital data is stored in logical pools, said to be on "the cloud". The physical storage spans multiple servers (sometimes in multiple locations), and the physical environment is typically owned and managed by a hosting company. These cloud storage provider... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplituhedron | In mathematics and theoretical physics (especially twistor string theory), an amplituhedron is a geometric structure introduced in 2013 by Nima Arkani-Hamed and Jaroslav Trnka. It enables simplified calculation of particle interactions in some quantum field theories. In planar N = 4 supersymmetric Yang–Mills theory, al... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/999%20phone%20charging%20myth | The 999 phone charging myth is an urban legend that claims that if a mobile phone has low battery, then dialling 999 (or any regional emergency telephone number) charges the phone so it has more power. This was confirmed as untrue by several British police forces who publicly cited the dangers of making such calls.

It portrays patients with aphasia and follows their experiences through their recoveries. Notable for its innovative artistic direction and empathetic approach to patients with ap... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossed%20module | In mathematics, and especially in homotopy theory, a crossed module consists of groups and , where acts on by automorphisms (which we will write on the left, , and a homomorphism of groups
that is equivariant with respect to the conjugation action of on itself:
and also satisfies the so-called Peiffer ide... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half%20sphere%20exposure | Half Sphere exposure (HSE) is a protein solvent exposure measure that was first introduced by .
Like all solvent exposure measures it measures how buried amino acid residues are in a protein. It is found by counting the number of amino acid neighbors within two half spheres of chosen radius around the amino acid. The... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic-segregation%20model%20of%20T%20cell%20activation | Kinetic-segregation is a model proposed for the mechanism of T-cell receptor (TCR) triggering. It offers an explanation for how TCR binding to its ligand triggers T-cell activation, based on size-sensitivity for the molecules involved. Simon J. Davis and Anton van der Merwe, University of Oxford, proposed this model in... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eberlein%E2%80%93%C5%A0mulian%20theorem | In the mathematical field of functional analysis, the Eberlein–Šmulian theorem (named after William Frederick Eberlein and Witold Lwowitsch Schmulian) is a result that relates three different kinds of weak compactness in a Banach space.
Statement
Eberlein–Šmulian theorem: If X is a Banach space and A is a subset of... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operational%20taxonomic%20unit | An operational taxonomic unit (OTU) is an operational definition used to classify groups of closely related individuals. The term was originally introduced in 1963 by Robert R. Sokal and Peter H. A. Sneath in the context of numerical taxonomy, where an "operational taxonomic unit" is simply the group of organisms curre... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodecahedral%20molecular%20geometry | In chemistry, the dodecahedral molecular geometry describes the shape of compounds where eight atoms or groups of atoms or ligands are arranged around a central atom defining the vertices of a snub disphenoid (also known as a trigonal dodecahedron). This shape has D2d symmetry and is one of the three common shapes for ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Construction%20and%20Analysis%20of%20Distributed%20Processes | CADP (Construction and Analysis of Distributed Processes) is a toolbox for the design of communication protocols and distributed systems. CADP is developed by the CONVECS team (formerly by the VASY team) at INRIA Rhone-Alpes and connected to various complementary tools. CADP is maintained, regularly improved, and used... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony%20TV8-301 | The TV8-301 was a small black and white television made by Sony. It is notable for being the world's first non-projection type all-transistor television. It had an eight-inch screen. It was also portable, having a bay in the back for two 6 volt lead acid batteries. It was priced high as it was innovative in many ways, ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josiah%20Willard%20Gibbs%20Lectureship | The Josiah Willard Gibbs Lectureship (also called the Gibbs Lecture) of the American Mathematical Society is an annually awarded mathematical prize, named in honor of Josiah Willard Gibbs. The prize is intended not only for mathematicians, but also for physicists, chemists, biologists, physicians, and other scientists ... |
