  South Korean biotechnology—a rising industrial and scientific powerhouse - Nature Biotechnology   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
South Korean life science ventures, such as Macrogen (Seoul) and Bioneer (Daejeon, South Korea), are capitalizing on the post-genome era, and are beginning to gain an international reputation in DNA sequencing and synthesis (see Box 2).
The Science and Technology ministry feels it should be permitted, but the Ministry of Health and Welfare contends that allowing such research might inadvertently open the door to human cloning and should thus be banned outright.
An example of this is seen in LG Life Science's (Seoul; http://www.lgls.co.kr/) RandD alliances with various foreign firms for drug targets, including new anti-cancer and anti-bacterial drugs.

 Manifesto for Clinical Psychology
Of course, this argument reflects the mistaken notion that science is a set of answers, rather than a set of processes or methods by which to arrive at answers.
The dichotomy between science and practice is the classic one-the one codified in the Boulder Model of clinical training with its hyphenated characterization of clinical psychologists as "scientist-practitioners." The implication commonly attributed to the hyphenated Boulder Model is that there are two legitimate types of clinical psychology: clinical science and clinical practice.
The tendency to regard science as only one of the many interests of APA is reflected in an Opinion column in the July 1990 of The APA Monitor by APA President Stanley Graham.

 Elucidating the DNA Damage Pathway. Jennifer Fisher Wilson / The Scientist 16[2]:30, 21jan02
Data from the Web of Science (ISI, Philadelphia) show that Hot Papers are cited 50 to 100 times more often than the average paper of the same type and age.
Just six weeks after the publication of these studies, Science published a report of knockout experiments that demonstrated the same findings as the Halazonetis and Prives groups regarding Chk2's role in the DNA repair pathway.
He cites a study in patients with a syndrome similar to Li-Fraumeni—a cancer predisposition syndrome in which p53 is mutated at the germline level—who have mutations in Chk2 but not p53.

 The basic terminology used by microbiologists
Although the application of microbiology to the necessities of life (bread, cheese, beer) is older than history, the science began about 1674 when Antony van Leeuwenhoek made very small but quite powerful magnifying lenses and reported seeing tiny “animalcules”.
Perhaps some primitive cells ingested blue-green algae which became the chloroplasts of green plants.
Historically microbiology, but practically a separate science: study of viruses, which are arguably “living” submicroscopic packages of nucleic acid which can take control of other cells to produce more viruses.
