The AIDS epidemic has profoundly altered the way government responds to health emergencies, galvanizing medical research, speeding the review of new drugs and forcing officials who make health policy to share power with patients and their advocates.
The resulting storm of publicity galvanized elite research universities across the country to begin to open higher education to everyone — with the hope of perhaps, eventually, making money doing so.
Investigations into human brown fat and the recently discovered beige/brite fat have galvanized intense research efforts during the past decade because of their pivotal roles in energy dissipation.
Thus, while I don't think SDNs are by themselves a more powerful framework than prior approaches, adoption by industry galvanizes the research community to take on new and bigger challenges in the area.
But the field began to change as molecular biology techniques became widespread, and an incident with the antihistamine drug Seldane (terfenadine) in 1992 galvanized the research community to pay more attention to drug interactions.
Such discoveries galvanize psi researchers.
Some researchers hope that new work will galvanize support for similar research in the United States, by showing that therapeutic cloning is not merely a pipe dream.
They point to burgeoning biotech corridors in Cambridge, Mass., San Francisco, San Diego and Austin, Tex., where prestigious research institutions galvanize intensely cerebral and collaborative communities known as clusters.
