 HOS: 1. What is Science   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Neither will science be understood to be abstract theories such as found in astrophysics or elementary particle physics that are practically beyond understanding by anyone outside the few specialists working at the frontiers of these specializations.
Then can science be defined by looking at the range of activities "scientists do." Many of us would be hard-pressed to say much more about the nature of science than that science is whatever it is scientists do for a living.
A descriptive definition was said to be that science is what is "accepted by the scientific community" and is "what scientists do." The obvious implication of this description is that, in a free society, knowledge does not require the imprimatur of legislation in order to become science.

Universities have long been important in the development of life-saving medicines and technologies, and they once considered patenting to be antithetical to academic science and public health.
Now a fierce debate rages about whether and when patents promote innovation, but in practice, the patenting worm has turned: Seeking revenues and ways to commercialize their inventions, U.S. universities are taking out patents in unprecedented numbers.

Once, universities saw patenting as militating against the interests of disinterested science and public health.
Amid a heated debate over whether patents promote true innovation, universities are seeking revenue and courting commercialisation by taking out more patents than ever before.
There is, say the authors, little profit at stake here for universities anyway — but everything to gain for the global common good.
