One is that science sometimes makes discoveries — solid discoveries, undeniable facts, but contrary to common sense..
It takes time for solid discoveries to be made.
"It's going to be up to the scientists writing the proposals or bringing the problems forward to figure out experimental themes or researchable problems that they can make a case for, and then work up and make solid discoveries on," he said.
A tsunami of headlines marked the recent claim of neutrinos going faster than light and the more solid discovery of a particle that might be the Higgs boson, responsible for imbuing other particles with mass.
It is our intention to continue to maintain and update the Homeodomain Resource in the future, so as to provide a solid discovery framework for biologists and clinicians studying this important class of proteins.
Samples were purified on C18 solid phase extraction 'Discovery' columns (Supelco-Sigma-Aldrich, Bellefonte, PA) followed by concentration, assaying peptide concentration using the BCA protein assay (Thermo Scientific Pierce Rockfordd, IL), and diluted to 0.5 μg/μL for mass spectrometry (MS) analysis.
The studies, published until now, are a solid basis for discovery and establishing new biomarkers in PCa, but for further studies better, widely accepted, standardization, and normalization protocols are needed.
The present phylogenetic evidence based on DNA sequences from multiple independent genes provides a solid foundation for future discoveries and taxonomic descriptions of Osedax species.
The spectroscopic studies also led to the discovery of solid carbon dioxide on Callisto and the presence of a tenuous, continuously escaping atmosphere of carbon dioxide.
Dr. Alexander R. Stokes, the scientist and mathematician who discerned in 1950 that DNA is helical in shape and provided a solid foundation for the discovery of the double helix three years later, died in Welwyn Garden City, a London suburb, on Feb. 5.
Two minutes after liftoff, the shuttle's boosters fell away, their 1.1 million-pound loads of solid propellant exhausted, and Discovery continued toward orbit under the power of its three main engines, looking like a brilliant star as it dropped toward the horizon.
