David Millar yesterday confirmed recent rumours that he will race next year for Slipstream, the team from the United States which is close to being guaranteed a ride in the 2008 Tour de France because it was founded on ethical principles with the aim of preventing their riders doping.
In 1998, the concept of "green chemistry" was established through twelve principles with the aim of improving the eco-efficiency of chemical processes and to judge, whether or not, a chemical process is sustainable.
The Study Guide was designed based on instructional and learning principles with the aim of helping students to fill their specific knowledge gaps, i.e. by choosing the modules of interest, and to perform better when generating, managing or using food composition data.
The WHO 2006 Child Growth Standard embodies a number of novel and admirable principles, with the aim of promoting optimal infant and childhood growth.
This quality improvement process will be based on action learning principles with the aim of encouraging shared learning at various levels of the organisation; greater self-awareness and self-confidence (resulting from new insights and feedback); ability to ask better questions and be more reflective; and improved communications and teamwork [ 20].
Therefore the ESHRE PGS Task Force has decided to start a proof of principle study with the aim of determining whether biopsy of the first and second polar body followed by subsequent analysis of the complete chromosome complement of these polar bodies using an array based technique enables a timely identification of the chromosomal status of an oocyte.
More recently, the dramatic increase in RNA structural information led to the development of RNA architectonics, the scientific study of the principles of RNA architecture with the aim of constructing RNA nanostructures of any arbitrary size and shape.
The analyses were performed according to the intention-to-screen principle with the specific aim of comparing intensive (annual) and less intensive (triennial) invitation groups.
This expert proposed to extend this ethical principle to the use of chemicals, e.g. with respect to flame retardants with possible health risks: doing harm to e.g. children by using such chemicals according to this principle might be in conflict with the aim of prevention of harm by fires.
Therefore the ESHRE PGS Task Force has decided to start a proof of principle study using their methods with the aim of determining whether biopsy of the first and second polar body, followed by subsequent analysis of the complete chromosome complement of these polar bodies using an array-based technique, enables a timely identification of the chromosomal status of an oocyte.
