Synthetic biology through biomolecular design and engineering. by Channon, K, Bromley, E, Woolfson, D

“…Synthetic biology is a rapidly growing field that has emerged in a global, multidisciplinary effort among biologists, chemists, engineers, physicists, and mathematicians. Broadly, the field has two complementary goals: To improve understanding of biological systems through mimicry and to produce bio-orthogonal systems with new functions. …”

Riemannian holonomy groups and calibrated geometry by Joyce, D

“…Drawing extensively on the author's previous work, the text explains the advanced mathematics involved simply and clearly to both mathematicians and physicists. Starting with the basic geometry of connections, curvature, complex and Kähler structures suitable for beginning graduate students, the text covers seminal results such as Yau's proof of the Calabi Conjecture, and takes the reader all the way to the frontiers of current research in calibrated geometry, giving many open problems.…”

On the History of Unified Field Theories by Goenner Hubert F.M.

“…While my focus lies on the conceptual development of the field, by also paying attention to the interaction of various schools of mathematicians with the research done by physicists, some prosopocraphical remarks are included.…”

Exploring Frontiers of the Mind–Brain Relationship edited by Alexander Moreira-Almeida and Franklin Santana Santos by James G. Matlock

“…The paradigm shift in physics that came with the establishment of quantum mechanics in the last century has implications for all the sciences, but that fact has been remarkably slow to sink in, perhaps in part because physicists themselves have not been able to agree on what it means. …”

Estimation of effective doses to whole-bodies and hands of facilitating staff from radioiodine-131 ablation therapy patients by Abdulrahman Mofreh Al-Esaei, Emran Eisa Saleh, Sharief El Maghraby, Tamer Mahmoud Elsayed, Amr Mohamed Ismail Kany

“…Abstract Background Workers in the field of radiation therapy are exposed to radiation hazards, and it is necessary to take precautions to limit the radiation dose to nursing staff and physicists. Objective To evaluate the external dose rate (EDR), effective whole-body dose (EHD) and hand equivalent dose (HED) for facilitating staff from radioiodine-131 (RAI-131) ablation therapy patients. …”

A Method for Demonstrating Superluminal Communication Using Conscious Intent to Influence a Quantum-Entangled Link by Walter John Wilkinson

“… It is fair to say that Bell's Theorem leaves a nasty taste in the mouths of many physicists because test results seem to suggest that non-local, i.e., superluminal, communication of some sort is going on all around us and maybe not just at the quantum level. …”

The Legacy of Einstein’s Eclipse, Gravitational Lensing by Jorge L. Cervantes-Cota, Salvador Galindo-Uribarri, George F. Smoot

“…One hundred years later many physicists around the world are involved in studying the consequences and use as a research tool, of the deflection of light by gravitational fields, a discipline that today receives the generic name of Gravitational Lensing. …”

What Can We Learn from Entanglement and Quantum Tomography? by John P. Ralston

“…Entanglement has become a hot topic in nuclear and particle physics, although many physicists are not sure they know what it means. We maintain that an era of understanding and using quantum mechanics on a dramatically new basis has arrived. …”

Foreword to microcrystalline pathologies: combining clinical activity and fundamental research at the nanoscale by Bazin, Dominique, Daudon, Michel, Frochot, Vincent, Haymann, Jean-Philippe, Letavernier, Emmanuel

“…In the last two decades, we have enhanced this platform by creating a network combining researchers from varied disciplines such as physicists, chemists, and clinicians. The resultant research dynamism is underscored by metrics such as 71 references in Pubmed and 129 in Web of Science, and the high impact of the journals in which we have published (New England Journal of Medicine, Kidney International, Chemical Review...). …”
