The scientists I know have the same personality quirks as people in any other profession.The unemotional Spock was the Enterprise's chief science officer, but science fiction is a poor basis for characterizing all scientists.
The focus on biology and dose-response at each step (key event) addresses the threshold of response for an individual and offers the basis for characterizing the threshold for a population, a "pragmatic threshold," if you will.
It introduces a generalized resource management framework and uses it as a basis for characterizing existing approaches and for defining a direction for resource management development, particularly as framed within the Open Grid Services Architecture.
These values are the basis for characterizing Confucian ethics as a relational ethic, meaning that it is in part distinguished by its placement of relationships at the center of a well-lived life (see Ames, 2011).
It also was limited by measuring PBDEs only in dust samples and using a single dust sample as a basis for characterizing exposure.
Using stream channel hazards as a basis for characterizing channel segments, together with consideration of community views, this approach provides a potential framework for management as illustrated provisionally by indicating the most significant hazards that require management and then suggesting possible management options.
The studies presented above support a modified conformational selection process and provide a basis for characterizing some of the steps in Equation 1c.
In an attempt to provide a systematic basis for characterizing stem cell lines, Bock and colleagues [ 25] carried out an extensive bioinformatics comparison of 20 human iPSC and 12 human ESC lines, including DNA methylation patterns, microarray analyses, and a general differentiation assay in which gene expression was analyzed in embryoid bodies derived from each line.
Though the candidate made no blatant regional or racist appeals, Rosen recounts that a Nixon assurance not to treat the South "as a whipping boy" became the basis for characterizing the campaign as based on a nefarious Southern strategy.
These results provide a basis for characterizing and optimizing oxide films for charge storage.
