At baseball's All-Star Game in Detroit in 2005, unobserved NEST scientists screened tens of thousands of fans entering the stadium, and their sensors rang just once reacting to the former Secretary of Energy Spencer Abraham, who was radioactive from a recent doctor's visit.

To find out whether great apes think this, too, the scientists screened their movie to 14 chimpanzees, nine bonobos, and seven orangutans.
The scientists screened the family for mutations in key genes involved in the circadian clock, and identified two rare variants of the PERIOD3 (PER3) gene in members suffering from SAD and advanced sleep phase.
The human miRNA-associated disease database (HMDD) serves as a resource for scientists screening the constantly increasing number of miRNA profiles for a wide range of diseases.
In the first phase of testing at the NIH Chemical Genomics Center, scientists screened up to 2,800 compounds with about 70 high-throughput assays.
In another example, scientists screened for genetic variants in 17 selected miRNAs, which were predicted to regulate key breast cancer genes, in 42 patients with familial breast cancer [42].
The authors call on scientists screening suspected endocrine disruptors to choose the most sensitive rodents, to minimize the animals' exposure to dietary estrogens, and to control their caloric intake.
Drug screening and development ESCs will also allow scientists to screen drugs for safety and effectiveness.
