The rotation is assigned a positive value if it is clockwise with respect to an observer facing the light source, negative if counterclockwise.
Jim Lovell and Buzz Aldrin, who had formerly been the backup for Gemini 10, became the mission's backup crew, and through the normal rotation were assigned as prime crew for Gemini 12. Without the Gemini experience, it is unlikely that Aldrin would have been assigned to the Apollo 11 mission, during which he became the second man to walk on the moon.
Residents on ambulatory or elective rotations were assigned to two 90-min small-group classroom sessions.
Thus, for example, the classical-to-hybrid transitions and the associated ribosomal intersubunit rotations are assigned as movements along the chemical coordinate over a rather shallow activation energy that accounts for their reversible nature (Munro et al., 2007; Cornish et al., 2008; Fei et al., 2008).
About halfway through the rotation, I was assigned to Dr. Jowett's operating room for a surgery booked as "corneal reinnervation with greater auricular nerve". I had never heard of it, and soon realized that was because it was the first of its kind.
That is what happened to Lamyaa El-Gabry, PhD, when she started her first job and was assigned to a rotation in heat transfer at General Electric.
The sign of specific rotation is indicated in brackets and was assigned according to the literature for reference biotransformations.
"Every rotation changes my body," Mike, the resident I was assigned to as a student for my first month of surgical training, said to me over Asian noodles left from a grand-rounds meeting.
A symmetrical position of the pelvis was assigned a value of - 0, and pelvic rotation, a value of 1. Pelvic rotation was assessed manually as a deficit of rotation of the iliac bone relative to the sacral bone on the left and right side of the body.
Their stereochemistry was assigned by ROESY correlations as well as by the specific optical rotation.
