 Learning from Polar Ice Core Research   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The discovery of these fluctuations, known as Dansgaard-Oeschger oscillations after the Danish and Swiss investigators who first documented them, has given rise to intense interest in their causes and speculation that current increasing levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere could trigger such rapid change in the coming decades.
The importance of the ice core record was recognized by the North American environmental science community in 1996, when Claude Lorius, Willi Dansgaard, and Hans Oeschger received the Tyler Prize for Environmental Achievement.
Because of a personal friendship with V. Kotlyakov, the lead scientist at Vostok and the director of the Institute of Geography of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Claude Lorius was able to arrange French participation in the drilling project.

 FDA/USDA US Food Safety System Country Report Annex II: Precaution in US Food Safety Decisionmaking
The goal of the consortium is to cooperatively advance the science of microbial risk assessment.
At the time the first major law on meat inspection was passed, animal diseases were the major concern, and science had not advanced to the stage in which invisible hazards such as pathogenic microorganisms would attract the attention of public health authorities.
The agency did eventually, based on the science and the law, and following fair and transparent procedures, allow the material to be used, after concluding that it is safe.

In 1747, he suggested that Du Fay’s hypothesis that there were two types of electricity was unnecessarily complicated.
To achieve this, it was necessary to develop a good curriculum which included "a judicious selection of the sciences practically grouped together in an institution meant chiefly for use." He felt no one was as familiar with subjects to be taught as Priestley, and for that reason requested his cooperation.
To appreciate how clever Volta was, it is important to bear in mind that the whole development of the science of electricity up to this point had consisted of more and more efficient ways of collecting the "electric fluid" from "electric materials" such as amber, glass, etc., and storing it in metals or Leyden jars.

Whereas FDA's approach to labeling biotechnically produced foods is based on sound science, it is not without controversy.

If dietetics professionals are to maintain the trust of their clients, it is imperative that they understand the terminology and basic science behind applications of biotechnology, along with the complexities of issues surrounding the use of biotechnical methods.
